home away from home!

My parents and I loved this little house. Beautiful yard with a sunny patio to enjoy happy hour. Being close to Tongariro NP was the main purpose for choosing to stay here. it was a great retreat, very comfortable beds, all the amenities you need. And we loved the quietness of the street and the town. Highly recommend staying here!!
