About this property
Kereru Cottage Taupo. Peaceful, family & dog friendly house close to Lakes edge
- Metres from Lake Taupo, this lovely fully fenced property is family and dog friendly. Waitahanui is quiet and relaxing, just 5 mins from Taupo airport. Lake views from the master bedroom, office and living room/patio. Take your wine to the lake, sit and enjoy stunning sunsets. Dogs can walk on the beach off the lead. Swim in the lake, fly fish at the river a few minutes walk away or just read and relax. 3 bedrooms (king/queen/bunks), heat pumps in all rooms, Starlink wifi, new fully equiped kitchen, 2 bathrooms (one with a bathtub), plenty of board games, books to read or watch films on the new 50 inch SmartTV.
Full laundry (washing machine & dryer). Office nook with standing desk and a gorgeous view of the lake (might be a bit hard to get any work done!)
Supermarket & cafe 8 mins drive. Mini golf, kids entertainment, cafe, bar & restaurant 5 mins drive. 12 mins to Taupo MotorSport Park.
We're happy to assist with any questions while you stay at our house.
2 external security cameras on site.
