Tranquil Retreat with Breathtaking Lake Views: Renowed for Trout Fishing

Located just 27 minutes away from Rotorua and its exciting attractions like the Redwood Forest, Gondola Luge, bike tracks, and jet boating, this place is a paradise for nature lovers. You'll find a hot natural local pool just 5 minutes away by car or 10 minutes by boat, making it a boatie's dream.

Fishing enthusiasts can enjoy the nearby fishing spots, but a fishing license is required, which can be conveniently purchased at the local petrol station. If you're up for some kayaking, there's one available for use.

The surrounding natural beauty allows you to wake up to the delightful sounds of birds. If you need to grab a bite or refuel, the nearest cafe, takeaways, and petrol station are just a short 10-minute drive away.

Please note that the 1970's caravan is a 4 berth, suitable for up to 4 people, and guests are required to use the house's bathroom, toilet, shower, and laundry facilities, located close by. It has been thoughtfully renovated with comfortable furniture, including a queen and couch that can open out to be a double bed.

Linen is provided, and smoking is not allowed inside the caravan. Sorry no dogs.

Loved staying here. Had some peaceful time on my own. Great little caravan fir a couple. Pam even turned all the fairy lights on. So pretty. Even with the Labour weekend storm with the winds thrashing the water on the lake, it was so cosy. Bathroom is inside the house but is easily accessible throughout my stay. Great walk nearby as well. Pam and Neville are great host and supplied everything you'd need for a pleasant stay.

Perfect location for lakeside activities

The lake and playground are right on your doorstep. The hosts are fantastic and having use of the kayaks and life jackets were an added bonus. Our 3 and a half year old is already asking to stay here again

Divine stay

Was delighted on arrival! The gorgeous bush lined road in, the beautiful little lane where the site is located, lined with classic baches, the lakeside location, the little street which is like a community space where people stop and chat, the bushclad hill dropping into the water, Hongi's track walking trail I was very lucky to find somewhere so serene and special. The kayaking and swimming just lovely. Definately want to return Caravan environment so well appointed. Thank you

We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation at this beautiful lakeside paradise. The hosts were lovely and welcoming and this was the most ideal location for visiting all of the must see tourist attractions of Rotorua.

Wonderful to stay in the garden caravan with my young son. Pam and Nev are wonderful hosts, the Caravan is spotless and perfect place to stay. Brilliant location right on the lakeside, playground, bush walks, golf and Rotorua just 20 minutes or so away. This was our second visit and we had such a good time. Thank you for having us.

What a lovely three nights my two kids and I had in this quaint caravan set right on the lake. Pam and Nev have created a peaceful and quaint environment which almost feels like camping but with all the home comforts. Awesome hosts and a fantastic location to explore the lake, bush and local spots which they will share with you. Thanks so much and will see you again soon!
