Easy for pets, our kids loved it (age 7 and 11 years) but may not be so suitable for younger children as listing states. Loved using the open fire, shed is good for storing bikes and has everything you need for a comfortable holiday.

It was so nice to have a dog friendly place to have a holiday. Communication was great in terms of check in information and facilities for the stay. The house was well equipped with everything we needed. Thank you for having the fireplace and heatpump started on a cold winter weekend, it was so good to arrive to a warm place. We loved the fireplace. The house was nice and close to central Taupo and easy to explore the area from. Thanks for the information about things to do in the area. We enjoyed our stay and would come back again.

Disappointed

First, I want to start by saying the neighborhood and location were great. Upon arrival the place had minimal upkeep on the exterior. There were cobwebs all over the house and unkept weeds/landscaping.The check in process was easy enough with clear instructions. Inside the home had little to be desired. There were tiles from the ceiling hanging, the loveseat smelled of urine, the water pressure in the shower was terrible and there were bugs all over the bathroom floor. We also removed 2 giant spiders from the beds. Not sure if there was an animal in the attic, but there were large banging noises coming from the ceiling all night long. It sounded like an animal moving around. When we asked about the noise we were not met with a suitable response and the property management company blew us off. We ended up leaving a few days early because the conditions were terrible and we were not comfortable staying there.We contacted the host about an early departure with our complaints and they truly didn't seem to care. I never leave negative reviews, but this place as is should not be rented.

Great location for a family getaway

We stayed at the bach for the summer holidays in the Taupō. It was nice and close to town without being in the thick of it all. We enjoyed the easy access to the lakeside cycle routes. The kitchen was really well equiped, and we enjoyed being able to store our bikes in the garage.

Rustic and Charming

This little Bach is charming and rustic. It was extremely clean and we had excellent communication with the property manager. For 5 adults, it was a tight squeeze and a bit uncomfortable. I think 3 adults, or 2 adults kids would enjoy this place. Also, it needs a few upgrades, including the deck chairs (a few should be replaced). But listening to the birds from the deck is so pleasant!

Bach 70

The bach has all you need. The beds are comfortable with good linen. Air con is great on hot days. Nice to relax on the deck although the seats are not in great shape and we couldn’t get the umbrella up. Christmas decorations were a nice touch. The shower has very little water output.

Great dog friendly property in nice quiet location

Accurate listing. Clean, homely and good location between Woolworths and main Taupo township. Only downfall was the water pressure of the shower and I couldn’t find instructions to use the tv. Tried a few dvd but one never played at all, one got stuck on language option. It wasn’t a deal breaker, we could have contacted the property but decided to play a provided game instead.

Fantastic Taupo bach - great location

We had a great weekend in Taupo for a football tournament. The bach is super cute, clean and tidy with everything we needed. Absolutely perfect for our dog as the property is well fenced and a nice distance from 2 mile bay sailing club (dog friendly) for morning walks and coffee pick ups!

House was easy to find, a short walk to the lake front. House was very clean and tidy on arrival. Had everything we needed for a weekend away with the kids and dogs. Only downfall was it’s a little bit tired and our vehicle didn’t fit the garage (CX9), so we parked in the driveway, really no big deal. Would happily stay there again.

Like staying at a friend's bach

The bach is older style and a 2-3 min walk from lakefront. If you want shiny kitchens/bathrooms and everything new - maybe this is not for you. If you want charm, a warm welcome (they left Easter eggs for us!), to be away from the main SH1 noise, and a low-key easy place to stay, this is. Bach 70 was one of the few places in Taupo that would allow us to bring our dog and allow him to sleep inside. Communication from Kerry was excellent throughout. While the bach does not have lake views -the lake is only a short stroll away. There is a lovely, private sunny deck at the back overlooking a forested gully. Part of the property is fenced, so pets can be let out safely. Everything worked, including a heat pump for chilly mornings. Sure, there are some chips and cracks - but nothing that mattered.There's a very generous collection of kitchenware and retro board games - and we noticed a baby chair and baby bath for folks with little ones. A great place to stay: like being at a friend's.
