The Bach was beautifully located on the lake side - direct access from the deck/garden. Great outside furniture, black out curtains, comfortable bed, new bathroom with strong water pressure, new towels, well equipped kitchen. We really enjoyed our stay. Needs improvement : could be cleaner (old rags under sink, dust in laundry & living areas), BBQ filthy and poor gas pressure so unusable, sofas/chairs need modernising for this price.

The location of this lakeside bach is superb and i'd definitely stay again. We had such a great time being able to just pop across to swim or paddle board, we loved watching the sunset and the people coming to the lakefront, we had direct access to the w2k for biking, and it was a pretty stroll to the store. The bach itself had new, modern kitchen and bathroom, comfy beds, good shower, and was double glazed throughout. It was quiet and the deck was great.

Matariki getaway

So relaxing! Waterfront views during winter are just as entertaining as during the hotter months. Very cold so make the most of the heating when it snows on the other side of the lake! Make use of the walking tracks when the shower stop, there are some incredible sights along the way. Drop by the general store for a coffee and macadamia brittle! This is a very comfortable home to put your feet up and relax.
watch the passing shoers across the lake.
Watch the sunset with your glass of wine in hand.
Go for a stroll further down the lake front from the general store for this view.

Birthday breakaway

I had dreamed about staying on the lakefront at Kinloch for 10 years and when I saw this property available,jumped at the chance to celebrate my birthday there quietly with my family. It was everything I could have wished for - comfortable and relaxed house in the perfect location. Penny was helpful to deal with especially when we had some medial issues and we were able to extend our stay . My only criticism would be the double bed which was very hard. Would definitely stay again but a comfier bed would make it perfect. Shout out to the Kinloch locals - what a friendly welcoming community!

Great Place to Unwind

Awesome place right on the Lake Front with Fabulous Views. Great communication and instructions throughout the whole process. A tidy house with all the necessities to make it a comfortable holiday. There is room on the deck to cover and lock up bikes if required. The General store is a 5-10 min walk for any top ups. Was nice and quiet off peak. Enjoy

Stunning spring stay

Our second year staying for a week and we got a taste of summer at the start spring with the kids running safely between the water and the backyard. Having the lake access road at the front also meant plenty of biking and scootering occurred as well. Being able to put the kids to bed down the hall for the night meant we could then relax and watch the sunsets each evening.

Lakefront magic

We loved our stay at Penny's family bach. It is prime lakefront and so tranquil you just feel at peace looking out the living room windows. The sky at night was majestic too. It is well worth downloading the Stellarium app for identifying the constellations. The rooms are comfortable and the bach stayed warm without the need for the overhead radiator. The shower was piping hot for five of us and the old leather lazy-boys got plenty of use. Unwind and enjoy!
