Very nice updated cottage with adequate room. The provided breakfast was good and the owner was very responsive to any needs.

The location is a bit far from downtown Rotorua but certainly within driving distance. The online pictures appear to show that the lodging is on the lake with a view but it is actually one building removed from the lake.

We had an amazing stay at this property! The view was absolutely stunning, making every morning feel special. The place was impeccably neat and clean, which made us feel right at home. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the utensils we needed, so preparing homemade meals was a breeze—perfect for anyone looking to cook their own food during their stay. Overall, a fantastic experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-equipped place to relax.

Issue with the main door lock. I have reported to Sam about it. Hope it will get fixed.

The home was beautiful with everything you would need a fully equipped kitchen with a stocked larder, washing machine and dish washer. I loved the view from the kitchen of the lake. The view of the lake of course from the front yard was beautiful. Bedrooms were great too one big one and a smaller one. It had a hot tub too but we did not use it. A 5 minute drive to the main town area. Completely value for money - we were 4 adults and 2 children. We stayed 2 nights at another home (owned by the same person) which was behind the lake house, that was not up to the mark. The fireplace was a bit glitchy and the place could do with a thorough cleaning. We then phoned the owner and asked if we could shift to the lake house for one night and it was the best decision ever!

The bathroom could use a heater - I think it was broken/not working.

Stayed 2 nights at the cottage 15,16 March. It was clean and tidy had all the amenities. It was so peaceful and quiet, the fire was a bonus as it got quite chilly, lit the fire and it was so cozy. Awesome, we stood out on the lake front to watch the sunrise. The location was just right for us as our grandchildren lived at the end of the street There was a power outage on the Sunday morning and Sampson rung to see how we were, offered to have power for us, it was ok we were fine. Actually we are used to power outages where we come from. Big thank you for the bottle of wine. Would stay there again. Will have to try fishing next time. Thank you.

Only downside were the single beds..noisy and uncomfortable. Hey I didn't complain because I had the main bed.

Lovely property with amazing views. We stayed here on 4th January. Great place for fishing as well as the lake is just infront of the property. There are also 2 kayaks available for use. Very clean and tidy. Has a Spa as well. Sampson was great with corresponding to my queries as we were new to Rotorua. Property felt like home away from home. Very convenient location. Lots of eatery nearby. We would definitely stay here again when we come to Rotorua. Thanks Sampson!!!

Great space with wonderful view of the lake, must see a sunrise! The trail along the water was so nice for walks. Easy communication with hosts and very accommodating when we asked to stay an extra night! Little touches such as fresh flowers on arrival was greatly appreciated!

It may not be the nicest part of town but price reflects that and is a great option if you have a car to drive into town.

Location is great. Quiet. Good find around Rotorua. Private. Cosy. Brilliant modern kitchen, even if it could use a little TLC. One of the best we have seen.

Surprised about the wood burner being the only option to heat. Floor is noisy and creaking, causes stress if we have to get up at night for a pit stop.

Beautiful clean house, perfect location close enough to the water for us to feel at home. Amazing hosts, they were always quick to reply and so helpful (we had a high roof hiace van that was unable to fit in the parking space provided so they gave up their parking space😁). Everything exactly as described

Maybe another mirror needed

We loved it here! It was like home away from home. It was great to have some staple foods provided, like milk and margarine which are hard to travel with otherwise. It was spacious and clean. Nice to be so close to the lake and local shops - a great location on a quiet street.

Perfect stay which is close to the main town of Rotorua and surrounding activities. The view of the lake is perfect and you get the morning sun. Ammenities were great and the accommodation was clean. There is also parking available on site.

Nothing!
