Rainbow point
Location fantastic! Batch needs an update of furniture. An outside table should be supplied. Shower pressure pretty bad. The view is amazing! Neighbour on the left driving up to the house lovely!! Gave us fresh venison and gives fresh trout caught from his boat!

Beautiful view but lacking
There were some issues with our stay. This place needs some upkeep and although it seems heirloom to the owners we don't have the same attachment and this view it on a totally different level. The place was tidy when we arrived but sub par rental for $$$ a night we would expect washer and dryer, updated kitchen and bathroom and a better heat source than a propane can heater that comes with a warning. It was a cute place with a nice view but that was the extent of it. Homeowners were lovely to deal with. Sorry for this review but at $$$ a night we feel we overpaid.

Small bach, well located on Lake Taupo
Ideal spot with beautiful views of the lake. Just a short walk to the lakeside walkway, which is great for running a dog and for children. Good for splashing in the water! Spoilt by no hot water on the first night and hopeless hot water pressure throughout the stay. Desperately needs an upgrade to a mains pressure hot water cylinder.

Great little basic batch for the family.
Clean and tidy, basic but suited our needs. Great location, quiet and close to the lake and walkway. Would definitely consider booking in the future for a longer stay.

No proper hot water system
Good experience but we really dont like the water system. Hot and cold water not mixing so we have to take extemly hot shower or ice cold shower. Need to fix it.

Great little bach
Bach was very tidy and despite the cold weather the two heaters heated up the main room nicely- would stay again, great views, good hand location to Taupo but also quiet and has a secluded feel
