Camp Acacia - Family retreat
Summary:
Camp Acacia is a unique space to reset, reflect and connect.
A warm, light filled home on a secluded cul-de-sac, designed with a 'slow' pace in mind.
Local wildflowers collected on adventures decorate the house along with vintage pieces and whimsical collections, creating a luxe vintage-camping vibe full of memories from childhood summers.
Well stocked with everything you need & a restaurant/bar, L’arté Cafe & Gallery, shops, playground & lake all a short walking distance away.
The Space:
Our hope is that you enjoy every part of your stay - from sipping on local coffee in the morning, listening to the native wildlife in the trees surrounding our property and in the hills behind, long lunches with good friends and late nights gathered around the outdoor fire pit toasting marshmallows.
This spacious 2 storey home has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each room is individually styled with quality linen and feather pillows.
PLEASE NOTE – This property is STRICTLY not suitable for parties, events, or loud groups.
Guest Access:
The whole home is yours to access and enjoy. You will have access to and use of the entire house and off street carparking for 2 cars.
The driveway is shared and must be kept clear at all times.
Other Things to Note:
Rotorua is only one hours drive and Hawkes Bay within 1.5 hours drive for a day of sightseeing and for the active traveller the Ski field and Tongariro crossing is an 1.5 hours drive. The Glowworm Caves are also 2 hours drive and Hobbiton 1.5 hours making Taupo the heart of the North Island and the perfect place to stay and explore from.
Interaction with Guests:
We like to give our guests their privacy but Kerry is available by phone or text to answer any questions and we are only ever 10-15 minutes drive away if needed in an emergency.
