Family at Wharewaka is a very pleasant bach in a quiet location.
Very close to the lake and handy for a bike ride to town or a short drive.
Plenty of room for our group of 10 adults, the kitchen had all you need appliances.
Also lots of room outside.
15 minute walk a brand new Woolworths and 15 minute walk the other way, a cafe, minigolf and pin bowling.
We had an excellent family stay, was a lovely clean house perfect for what we needed, not too far from Taupo town but far enough, would use again.
Would just suggest maybe a little rubbish bin in the downstairs bathroom.
Was excellent for our purpose which was to meet friends from other parts of the Nth Island for a meeting. Was warm, spacious, close to the lake, quiet neighbourhood. Well stocked kitchen, parking for 4 cars.
