Lake Rotoehu - Water Views, secluded, spa pool "just for you"

Looking for a lake holiday then this is a great family holiday pad for that perfect summer break away with easy access and plenty of parking for cars and boat.

The property is rural nestled above Lake Rotoehu with views across the Lake. Located 3 minutes off state Highway 30 which takes you into Rotorua.

Okere Falls the "hub" if not driving into Rotorua is 25 minutes drive - f Enjoy a cafe breakfast or lunchtime meal, coffee, Craft Beer at Okere Falls Cafe. Kaituna White water rafting Company operates from here as does Okere Zip line Tours and nearby water Taxi from Okawa Bay to the Rotoiti Hot Pools.

Or stay put and enjoy walking a near by bush track with views across the three lakes, Rotoma, Rotoehu and Rotoiti on a nice day.

Enjoy the peaceful surroundings and a well deserved break, wake up to the birdsong and quiet of the country. The day can be spent relaxing in privacy on the sun drenched deck with BBQ and Spa pool, where you can enjoy water views and the sun setting across Lake Rotoehu. If you strike a cold wet day there's a warm cosy wood fire with dry firewood provided.
Off road mountain bike tracks are nearby however the Redwoods in Rotorua is the highlight for anyone into mountain biking.

Home away from home

Our family had a wonderful stay at Lake Rotoma. The home is completely decked out with everything a family needs which was awesome in terms of what we didn't need to bring. The fact that the interior is also stylishly decorated contributed to the overall experience. The rural setting was quiet and relaxing, the roaring fire and spa were also big winners. Access to other nearby lakes also was another big plus for our boating. Rechelle was an excellent host, thank you.

I suggest you not put "Excellent swimming, water skiing and fishing at Lake Rotoehu" in the description, as the lake was unsuitable for both, very polluted and smelt. We did however, enjoy Lake Rotoma which was clean and clear and great for fishing and swimming, and 10mins down the road.

The property was as expected set in a lovely large garden with views over both farm land and down to the lake. The house was very clean and tidy with beds made up and plenty of towels including extra towels for the spa. Terry had lit the fire, and heated the spa pool which was lovely. The house also has underfloor heating in part and was really toasty and comfortable. We are a family of 4, plus puppy, and the house worked perfectly for us. A bonus was a lovely welcome food parcel R left us!

Quite location with a lovely view overlooking the lake. Great to be so close to the natural thermal pools. Effective wood burner and underfloor heating, making the place cosy. The spa didn't seem to be working properly which was a little disappointing but luckily we had the thermal pools
