Perfect accommodation for visiting Tongariro and Southern Lake Taupo
This sunny home at the southern end of Lake Taupo is perfect for families and groups. Enjoy fishing, rafting, and the trout hatchery, with the Tongariro Alpine Crossing and Ruapehu ski fields just a short drive away. With 5 bedrooms (including a bunk room), 2 bathrooms, and a modern kitchen, the property comfortably accommodates up to 12 guests. Ideal for a memorable and convenient getaway!
This charming home offers all the comforts of a full kitchen, 2 modern bathrooms, and a laundry with a washer and dryer. The ground floor features a bunk room, bathroom, and spacious living and kitchen areas. In summer, open the large doors to access a sunny deck with mountain views and a large flat lawn perfect for family games and entertaining. In winter, stay cozy by the indoor wood fire or enjoy the heat pump.
Upstairs, you`ll find 2 double rooms, 2 small single rooms, and a second bathroom. Please bring your own linen, or hire it for $12 per person, which includes sheets, pillowcases, and towels.

This is a classic bach with a relaxed feel—imperfections and the occasional bug are part of its charm. If you’re seeking hotel-level perfection, this might not be for you.

Our party of 12 had a great stay at Tessa property. Location was perfect for what we wanted (kids had a ball riding their bikes around the nice quite cul-de-sac, river/local cafe/playground within nice walking distance). House was well stocked w everything we needed & had plenty of room for everyone (kids loved all staying together in the big bunk room). Brazier was a nice touch for some mid-winter cheer. Tessa was a very responsive & accommodating host.
Our family stayed for 2 days in hopes of hiking in the nearby national park for a view of what Hobbit fans would call Mount Doom. Your house was a nice cozy setting in a nice neighborhood. We enjoyed the trail that went down to the riverside. Our host was very helpful and easy to communicate with. Thank you so much!
Nice property with everything that you need for a comfortable stay.
BBQ hadn’t been cleaned and didn’t operate ( no gas or something else.
The green waste bin had general rubbish in it so not sure how good the servicing between stays is.
Very well equipped house.
We booked for two families unfortunately one family couldn’t come due to delta level conditions since no refund we had to come , but we enjoyed the stay thank you
Beautiful property, with everything you would ever need. There are some great walks around the area and the wonderful lake to swim in, plus a nice cafe. Would definitely recommend.
Really great stay. Kuratau is such a beautiful place.
We loved the walks and returning back to the house to make use of the wonderful kitchen and fireplace.
We will definitely be returning.
Stunning holiday home, had everything we needed and more! As seasoned holidayers in Kuratua, it was lovely to return this summer and stay in such an incredible location and home. Communication with Tess was excellent and we will DEFINITELY be hoping too book again for next summer. 10/10 recommend staying here ☺️
Easy self check in. Kitchen is extremely well equipped for cooking and baking plus air fryer and slow cooker and rice cooker. Great communal areas including outdoor areas which were usable in the bright winter days we were blessed with. Good showers one upstairs bathroom and one downstairs bathroom. Bunk room is downstairs and rest of the bedrooms are upstairs. Light and Bright decor. Great comfy pillows. Many gorgeous wool blankets. We didn’t end up using the wood burner but there was plenty of wood. The house stayed very cosy with just the heat pump run in the morning and later evening. The house is a sun trap in the day.
Hi I may of left a pink pouch with earrings some heirloom in a side drawer in bunk room. I would appreciate it if you could please have a look. Enjoyed our stay.
Great place to relax. Everything we needed was provided. Luxury for the kids as they loved that they had their own TV in their room. Thank you Tessa for your quick response when needed and for letting us stay in your beautiful home.
Beautiful location. Size of property perfect for our needs. Great layout of rooms. Well equipped. Nice and quiet. Only worry was the kitchen tap that was leaking. Would definitely book again.
