Well resourced cottage. Helpful hosts. Location near easy boating access was a highlight. Room layout a bit tight with bedroom 2 being bathroom across walkway.

The house was tastefully presented, everything we needed for a two night stay was in there, the kitchen had all the utensils and equipment we needed in working condition and ready to use. (loved the coffee machine!! bonus!!)The bathroom was clean and well stocked. The linen and bedding was adequate. Heating was good. Really good place to stay with a small family.
Tips: The lower bunk in the second bedroom needs some slats to hold up so good for kids but no so much for elderly/older people. Although, not very far from main shops etc, come prepared with food / groceries if you are planning to cook. The bathroom and toilets are accessible through the second bedroom (with bunk beds). so okay for a family with kids but if you are sharing with friends, make sure those you place in this room are prepared for night visitors :):)
Really nice place, highly recommended, will definitely stay again if in Rotorua.
