It is the 2nd time we have stayed at this place and we very much enjoyed it. It is a lovely house and it's great that it has 3 queen beds. Was perfect for our group.
Absolutely wonderful stay for a wedding at Black Barn up the road. We loved the bird life and the warm and welcoming space. Really comfortable beds and great access to the lake!
Great long weekend stay at Lake Tarawera. Large rooms, comfortable beds and stunning views. Everything available for a great stay. Will definitely look to come again.
It is so wonderful to stay in a place that is so well appointed! Everything we needed was right there - including a well-stocked pantry - and it all worked! The bach is extremely comfortable, clean, and well appointed. Norman was fantastic to deal with, and responded very quickly to any enquiries. Lake Tarawera is one of my new favourite places. We hope to come back soon.
Beautiful home, well equipped. Remote and private. Bring your own kayak rack if you want to paddle. We swam in the lake every morning. Shop for food/essencials in town before leaving Rotorua.
Lovely and clean with great deck and sunshine.
Missed the 'iconic' mountain view and not the easiest property with a trailer boat (as owners boat is parked in carport) but manageable. Overall a nice property.
We just loved this property! A beautiful spot with easy access to the lake ,lots to do with lots of room and privacy. Sun drenched and the house is great. Will definitely visit again and fantastic communication Thankyou and a definite winner!
Lovely, comfortable house in idyllic bush setting with plenty of bird life, kereru everywhere! Boat access to the property is a little tricky but manageable. We appreciated being able to bring our little dog. Aircon was a bonus too.
House was very comfortable and spacious. Unfortunately there were no towels and linen on arrival which was disappointing. Personal belongings were found in the cupboard? Generally all was fine and stay was enjoyable. House and kitchen was well equipped.
Stayed for a family wedding at Black Barn. Sleeps 3 couples, if any singles, need to put mattress in lounge. Nicely presented, clean and tidy, lovely gardens/underplanting.
The house was lovely and the location was private with beautiful views. We really loved sitting on the deck and watching all the birds with the sound of the water in the background. Place had everything we needed and was well presented with lots of space. Thanks for having us!
Very enjoyable property that is well appointed.
Great location with nice views out over the lake and Mt Tarawera, the house is private with plenty of trees and bush around the property.
Two connecting driveways works well.
Very clean and comfortable house, a new bathroom and laundry downstairs was welcomed.
Heating was easy with two large heat pumps and the added bonus of a wood burner.
Overall a nice property to stay at.
Our stay was very memorable as we spent the weekend boating on the lake.
The house was very clean, warm and comfortable. There was good parking for the boat trailer. Great communication with both the house keeper and the property manager.
This is our 2nd time staying here. A great relaxing get away. Fantastic fire and heat pumps. All you need in the kitchen. Exc games books etc.
great beds and extra blankets . Communication with house keeper re check in etc was superb, such a kind lady.
Bottom bathroom superb, Top floor bathroom is a little tired but adequate.
Great location, bird song and birds around is a real treat.
Thanks for sharing your home with us.
What a beautiful part of the lakes district. Norman gave clear instructions for our stay. We were treated to a lovely home surrounded in bush. We awoke to native birds even bell birds. A view of the lake also. Thank you.
Great place for a winter family getaway. Even though it rained most of the time, we were still able to make the most of our time there. The lakes nearby are all so beautiful.
A home away from home! The house was very clean, and spacious for the family. The option of both heat pump and fire came in handy! We throughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return again!
