A lovely, quiet spot by the river. Very clean & tidy, with everything you may need. The location was very peaceful, but still convenient for Taupo town centre. The hosts, Lance & Sandra, were lovely and very helpful. Overall, it was a great stay. Would recommend.

We stayed three nights, family of four. We had everything we needed. Place was very clean. We had a great stay. The ad refers to it as a Cottage. There are three units all under one roof and the owners live in the end unit. It didn’t detract from our stay or pose any issues it’s just not what I anticipated a Cottage to be. Overall, we had a great stay.

Spacious, well resourced, relaxing, and very comfortable place to stay. Would definitely stay there again.

Property and hosts were great ! be aware that there are two 'attached' properties offered by this host. One has lovely view of the ravine, river and cliffs, directly from the outside deck, and one, which we stayed in, has a view not quite like the advertised view - it has private, greenery view, but not a direct view of the ravine, river and cliffs, without going outside to the backyard. Still, a lovely, quiet fully equipped location. Note, no AC in the unit we stayed in, but hosts provided plenty of fans to circulate air and in February, that was sufficient for very comfortable stay.

This is a great place to stay with a family. Close to walking tracks around the river, which is beautiful. Has good amenities, spacious, is warm, clean and comfy. Plenty of seating to eat and relax. We stayed in July, so we thoroughly enjoyed the fire place. There is a great heater for quick warmth as well. Comfy beds!
We enjoyed the extra things available, such as, firewood topped up for us, a good hairdryer, clothes horse, tea and coffee, netflix and dvds to play. There's a selection of kids books and some games. It was perfect for us.
Thanks Lance and Sandy for having us. :-)
