Absolutely loved my stay! Stayed in a 1 bedroom with partner and two kids for 2 nights. Very spacious. Bedroom had queen bed and single (warm and comfortable!!) and we were facing the park across the road and the lake. Lounge had two spacious, comfortable couches that turned into beds. Kitchen had all the amenities. Bathroom had a big room with a big accessible shower and a toilet in its own room within the bathroom. Fast, efficient check in and check out process. Host was welcoming and friendly. Gave time to talk and catch up. Used the outdoor pool many times. It’s small but deep enough for a relaxing soak and warm. 4 year old lapped it up! Overall 10/10 rating and would highly recommend this place to stay. Will be back.

I had previously stayed at this property and did discuss a number of concerns that had arisen with our last stay but decided to come back again as I felt that one stay should not define what this property is all about. This time I was very, very impress with my stay and the room I was given hence I gave a 5 star rating. It is so ideal for overnight stays and just to spend time away with your partner. I was given accommodation on the bottom floor which allowed easy access in and out for me especially carrying some very heavy suitcases but also recovering from head and shoulder injury. Well done Lake Front Lodge, will definately come back again!

A great location, close to the lakefront and Eat Streat. Not impressed with getting a fold out couch for extra guest instead of single bed as per booking. Could have been more attention to detail in cleaning. A bottle of old milk was left on the bench.

Stay was alright

We booked for a group of 4, so I am not sure why our room only had a queen bed and a single bed. It was a lovely room though, all warmed up when we arrived at half past 7 in the evening. We were too exhausted from our long flight and then drive from Auckland to head back to reception after we got to our room, so 3 of us shared the queen bed. The unit was clean and the toilet spacious. I would however suggest getting a unit on the upper floors if you are able to bring your suitcases up the stairs, because each morning we found a few cockroaches on the kitchen floor that crawled into our unit from perhaps a gap in the kitchen flooring. On the second night we made sure to clean up and clear our rubbish before we slept, but that still did not keep the cockroaches away. The motel is located just across the lake with the boardwalk and the huge playground. We were able to watch the sun rise every morning from our unit and patio, so everything else made up for the bedding and pest situation.

Pictures look better than reality

The lodge is located next to a busy road, after which is the lake, not as peaceful as it looks in the picture. The “balcony” is actually the walkway for the rooms upstairs, often we had to close the draps for privacy.

Okay, so let’s get this out the way: it’s a little dated but only to the 80s with some interesting decor. Something of an old school motel. But it’s clean, very well equipped, and the real winning quality: in a FANTASTIC location. You couldn’t ask for a better spot. And a shout out to John: a real friendly chap and genuinely welcoming.
