Stunning beach front bach

A lakeside property only meters from the water’s edge. Situated on a large section in a quite cul-de-sac this property is ideal for children. Expansive front (with stunning views) and back decks provide great indoor and outdoor entertaining areas. This property has double glazing, recently painted inside and out plus the bathroom and kitchen are new as renovated in 2024.

Take advantage of the lake at your doorstep – for swimming, fishing or kayaking. The recently completed mountain bike track is 1 minute away, the boat ramp or ski lane are only a couple of minutes and the store, restaurant, cafe, tennis courts, playground or golf courses are only ~ 5 minutes walk away.

Kinloch is equally hospitable in winter and summer - a great place for a family fisherman’s dream.

Stunning spring stay

Our second year staying for a week and we got a taste of summer at the start spring with the kids running safely between the water and the backyard. Having the lake access road at the front also meant plenty of biking and scootering occurred as well. Being able to put the kids to bed down the hall for the night meant we could then relax and watch the sunsets each evening.

Birthday breakaway

I had dreamed about staying on the lakefront at Kinloch for 10 years and when I saw this property available,jumped at the chance to celebrate my birthday there quietly with my family. It was everything I could have wished for - comfortable and relaxed house in the perfect location. Penny was helpful to deal with especially when we had some medial issues and we were able to extend our stay . My only criticism would be the double bed which was very hard. Would definitely stay again but a comfier bed would make it perfect. Shout out to the Kinloch locals - what a friendly welcoming community!

Great Place to Unwind

Awesome place right on the Lake Front with Fabulous Views. Great communication and instructions throughout the whole process. A tidy house with all the necessities to make it a comfortable holiday. There is room on the deck to cover and lock up bikes if required. The General store is a 5-10 min walk for any top ups. Was nice and quiet off peak. Enjoy

Recommend to stay

This property was a great place to rent. From the location by the lake, to the property having 2 great decks on both sides of the house meaning there was always a non windy spot to sit or less sun than the other. We really recommend it and will stay again.

Matariki getaway

So relaxing! Waterfront views during winter are just as entertaining as during the hotter months. Very cold so make the most of the heating when it snows on the other side of the lake! Make use of the walking tracks when the shower stop, there are some incredible sights along the way. Drop by the general store for a coffee and macadamia brittle! This is a very comfortable home to put your feet up and relax.
watch the passing shoers across the lake.
Watch the sunset with your glass of wine in hand.
Go for a stroll further down the lake front from the general store for this view.

Lakefront magic

We loved our stay at Penny's family bach. It is prime lakefront and so tranquil you just feel at peace looking out the living room windows. The sky at night was majestic too. It is well worth downloading the Stellarium app for identifying the constellations. The rooms are comfortable and the bach stayed warm without the need for the overhead radiator. The shower was piping hot for five of us and the old leather lazy-boys got plenty of use. Unwind and enjoy!

Right on the lake

A beautiful location right on the lake with only a bike path that seperates you and the water. The house was warm and got morning sun on the back deck and arvo sun on the front deck. The shower was good pressure. The beds could have been comfier especially in the back room where my husband hit the wooden base board every time he moved but if you have kids put them in those beds. Backed on to a quiet cul de sac which and fenced on three sides but one whole side wasn’t fenced only trees dotted along it so our dog and kids often got out so just keep an eye on them. Host always messaged back promptly and check in was a breeze. They only had sky tv so bring some dvds if you want to watch anything else and there was no wifi but there is fine reception there. The home itself was pretty basic for what we were paying but we went in a public holiday and the views were beautiful. Only 20 minutes from Taupō and close to attractions like Huka falls, liliput animal farm, rapids jet, mind junction etc so location worked we for us. Would definitely come back and stay again!
