"This was a great place to stop overnight on way north. Easy to find, easy parking, retro but very clean and functional space with everything needed. Really appreciated the little deck area with table and chairs as it was a nice night to dine outside. Close to main road but fenced and with door shut for the night no road noise really. We would stay again when passing through. "

"We had a great stay celebrating a few birthdays. The team were very accomodating to our requests, replied quickly to messages, the house was beautifully presented. The driveway to the 1 car park is very narrow which would be the only down side, we still managed to get our ute in though. The location is great, in walking distance to Taupo town and hole in one.
