You can soak up the afternoon sun on the deck, fire up the barbecue, and chill out in the spa pool.

The Space:
The heart of the house is the open plan living area, which opens onto a deck. Bedroom one and two each feature queen-size beds, providing ample space for relaxation.

This room also boasts an ensuite bathroom complete with a toilet and shower, and direct access to the backyard. The main bathroom is conveniently located on the same level, just outside the bedrooms. Downstairs, the basement is divided: half is converted into a rumpus room, ideal for planning those biking trails or a second chill-out space for the kids, while the other half remains a single garage, perfect for parking vehicles or storing toys and bikes.

Guest Access:
You'll have access to the entire house during your stay. This includes four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a half bathroom. Enjoy the open-plan living area, the fully equipped kitchen, and the deck with barbecue facilities. Relax in the spa pool, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

Overall Good

Great position as our purpose of being there was to do the Redwood Treetops Walk. I spent time cleaning when we arrived, table and bench tops were not clean and the living area was dusty everywhere. On the other hand the bedrooms, bathrooms and toilets were clean. The couple who slept in the bunk room said their bed was very uncomfortable, sore hips and shoulders in the morning.

TV setup is amateur. I raised it with the property manager and apparently I don’t know how to use a remote, lol. Bathroom door locks broken. Multiple locked in the bathroom experience. House felt a touch dirty and the blankets on couches etc absolutely stank. Clearly don’t get washed. The good- had the heating left in for when we arrived which was nice. The internet is excellent. Overall- Pretty avg place.

Winter break

Found the property exactly as represented in its photos and description. Was very clean, super warm and a pleasure to stay in. The spa pool was fab and on cold very wet afternoons (which was every day) was very much enjoyed. Located near the Redwoods and not far from the Blue and Green Lakes made it perfect for walking the dogs. Would definitly stay again if going to Rotorua.
