Cute as a button and perched on the hillside with beautiful lake views, Tui Shack is one of Kinloch's original holiday homes, thoughtfully renovated to celebrate its retro charm while offering all the comforts needed for a relaxing getaway.
Perfect for couples, small families or friends, this cosy two-bedroom, one-bathroom retreat comfortably accommodates up to five guests and provides the ideal base for exploring everything Kinloch and Lake Taupo have to offer.
Start your day with a coffee while taking in the lake views, then unwind in the private outdoor living area after a day on the water or the golf course. Just a 350-metre stroll from the lake, you'll be perfectly positioned for swimming, boating, kayaking or simply enjoying the peaceful shoreline.
Whether you're bringing the boat, jet ski or golf clubs, there's plenty of off-street parking and no shortage of activities nearby. Kinloch is renowned for its world-class outdoor lifestyle, with two fantastic golf courses—the Kinloch Village Golf Club and the internationally acclaimed Kinloch Golf Club—both just minutes away. You'll also have easy access to scenic walking and mountain biking trails, making Tui Shack an excellent choice for year-round adventures.
With its character, comfort and unbeatable location, Tui Shack is the perfect place to slow down, soak up the laid-back Kinloch atmosphere, and create lasting holiday memories.
*Please note: In keeping with its true retro charm, Tui Shack does not have Wi-Fi. It's the perfect opportunity to switch off, unwind, and enjoy everything Kinloch has to offer.*
