Waipahihi Charm & Tranquillity
Summary:
Nestled on the shores of Lake Taupo, this timeless 1930s bach has been cherished by the same family for over 50 years. Just a stone's throw from the lake, it offers unbeatable views and a tranquil setting. With three cozy bedrooms, plenty of character, and a newly renovated bathroom, this charming home is perfect for families or couples. Whether you're here for golf, shopping, fishing, skiing, sightseeing, or simply seeking a year-round retreat
The Space:
This centrally located property is just 5 minutes from Taupo town center and a 3-minute drive from the 2 Mile Bay Sailing Centre. It's the ideal spot to unwind by the water with a refreshing drink and a delicious wood-fired pizza. If you enjoy walking or biking, the Lions Walk is just moments away.
The home offers three bedrooms: Bedroom 1 features a king-sized bed, Bedroom 2 has a queen-sized bed, and the third bedroom includes two single beds. The bathroom has a shower and vanity, with a separate toilet for added convenience.
Please note: This property is strictly not suitable for parties, events, or loud groups.

Other Things to Note:
Rotorua is only one hours drive and Hawkes Bay within 1.5 hours drive for a day of sightseeing and for the active traveler the Ski field and Tongariro crossing is an 1.5 hours drive. The Glowworm Caves are also 2 hours drive and Hobbiton 1.5 hours making Taupo the heart of the North Island and the perfect place to stay and explore from.

We like to give our guests their privacy but Kerry is available by phone or text to answer any questions and we are only ever 10-15 minutes drive away if needed in an emergency.
