Good little spot
A good little spot with easy access to downtown and the lake. Nothing fancy but good for a family with small children.

Perfect place to stay in Taupo
Really comfortable home, we were a party of 5 and it was perfect for us, we enjoyed our stay immensely, wish we had been able to stay longer. Easy short walk down to the lake and a longer one into town.
