Welcome to Lakeside Lodge! An abundance of windows, skylights, and both sliding and bi-fold glass doors allow natural light to flood into this home, while dramatic vaulted ceilings make the open-plan living and dining area feel spacious, without compromising on that cosy cabin feel the open fire brings. With both this space, and a bonus sunroom, there's plenty of room for the whole family to find their ideal spot to settle into holiday mode. Stunning lake views from almost every corner of the house remind you of just how close the crisp waters of Lake Taupo are. Indoor-outdoor flow doesn’t get much better than you’ll find here at Lakeside Lodge. The sunroom seamlessly flows onto a shaded patio, while the main living room opens out to a covered deck then onto the grass. Aside from classic Kiwi picnic tables for your alfresco feasts, there’s nothing standing between you and the water. You’ll have all the essentials on hand to ensure a comfortable stay at your home away from home, including a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, BBQ, and heat pump technology to set the ideal temperature no matter the season. There are a few welcome bonus features too, such as a DVD player and gaming console, and complimentary WIFI to keep you connected throughout your stay. Three bedrooms comfortably sleep up to nine guests here at Lakeside Lodge, including a bright master bedroom with views you’ll want to lay in for. Two bathrooms provide the conveniences for your stay. Wake up slowly with a coffee on the deck, watching the lake glisten under the morning sun as you decide if you’ll spend the day around, in, or on the water. Waitetoko Beach is ideal for swimming, kayaking, and simply strolling to take in the tranquility! Lakeside Lodge has plenty of room to park the boat, and the ramp is just a six-minute drive away when it’s time to head out for a fish! You can of course also try your hand at fly fishing at the internationally renowned Tauranga Taupo River. The Hatepe and Tongariro Rivers are also well known. If you’re planning to hit the Tongariro National Park for walks and snow sports, Whakapapa Ski Field, Mt Ruapehu, and the Tongariro Crossing are all within an hours drive. And you're just 10-minutes drive from Turangi for supplies. It’s all in the name at this fabulous Tauranga Taupo spot; this is Lakeside Lodge! Guests should bring their own Nespresso pods to make use of the available machine.As the property has direct access to the lake, adults should closely supervise young children while outside to ensure they are safe around water.Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils -
