The house has a sprawling garden reaching all the way to the lake edge where you can jump off your private jetty, moor the boat after fishing or go for a paddle in the kayaks. After a dip in the lake, head up to the spa pool and relax while taking in the beautiful lake views. The Space: The house is designed for the view as you would expect with all living areas including the dining room, living room and kitchen on the ground floor. You have two bedrooms and a bathroom on the ground floor along with the living, kitchen and dining areas. Upstairs, you will find the master bedroom with Super King Bed and Bedroom Four which has a double sofa bed. The second bathroom upstairs can be shared with the master bedroom and bedroom four. Outside, you've got the choice of two different decks, one which is covered and protected if it gets a bit chilly in the evening. The spa pool is situated next to the covered deck and has an outdoor shower (with hot water) to rinse off before and after use. The stairs to the upstairs bedrooms have no handrail. Babies who aren't yet walking and school age children should be fine with supervision but the house is not suitable for toddlers up to the age of 5 years for obvious safety reasons. Please keep this in mind when booking :-) Guest Access: You'll have the whole house to your self. On the other side of the property, there is a seperate dwelling which may be rented also. This is quite private from 'The Bach' with the only shared area being the driveway and vehicle parking. The Neighborhood: Lake Okareka is a beautiful lake just 10-15min drive from Rotorua City. The lake is great for swimming, fishing and water sports so feel free to bring your boat. Getting Around: We recommend having your own vehicle if staying here although Uber and taxis will be available. Other Things to Note: If the dates you're looking at aren't available, please contact us directly as much of the calendar is closed due to local council restrictions. Interaction with Guests: We're available by phone, message or email during your stay. If you need personal assistance, we can stop in so just let us know. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 2,153 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/46000000/45150000/45145300/45145296/0603c3db.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lake View Okareka - Lake Okareka Holiday Home Lake Okareka - Kitchen - Washer - Outdoor space - Parking available 8.4 Very good 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-14&endDate=2025-10-15&selected=45145296&PinnedHotelID=45145296&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27320000/27319800/27319712/d7406784.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Chalet Near The Lake - Lake Okareka Sleeps 12 Lake Okareka - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 8.4 Very good 90 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-14&endDate=2025-10-15&selected=27319712&PinnedHotelID=27319712&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/88000000/87980000/87974400/87974348/a12b265b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Idyllic lake edge property - with own jetty!
