Stunning Location
We had a wonderful stay at Pohutukawa Lake House. We found the area by accident and had no idea that Lake Tarawera was such a beautiful location. The house overlooks the lake with stunning views from the deck. The house is very pleasant and well-appointed. It is quiet and private. We loved the busy bird-life and extensive gardens. There is plenty of room so it would be well-suited to couples or families.

We booked this house at short notice, the house was beautifully clean, had everything we needed and communication was fantastic. We attended a local wedding so were delighted the taxi's still came out that far. Super peaceful, lovely woodburner in the lounge and stunning views. Would happily return if we ever wanted to holiday back at Lake Tarawera!

Excellent property in beautiful environment
This property was perfect for two couples visiting the area. Wonderful views. Well appointed, comfortable house with great indoor/outdoor living area. Very spacious. Everything worked perfectly. Driveway was a bit steep but our rental car handled it easily. It is a little isolated from shops etc., but that is part of its charm.
