Edgewater Escape

We really enjoyed our stay, the private jetty was great! The property was very clean and comfortable. Positive: Right on the lake, warm and very clean. Negative: A spa would have been amazing!

First off, for some reason I thought this was a fancy new home from the listing, but actually it's an older home with some recent freshening up. Everything was clean, e.g. linens, towels, carpet, counters, but there were a few minor scuffs on walls and a little bit of mold in the shower. The house is on the lake with a nice view and backyard. Some of the hedges along the driveway were in need of pruning as they were hanging out into the driveway. Some patio furniture is bolted down and there are video cameras on the exterior. These touches made me question the safety of the neighborhood... that said, the neighborhood seemed fine. Overall, we had a very nice stay.

Beautiful location, so peaceful and relaxing being right next to the lake. House was great with the big deck looking out across lake Rotorua. Kids had a blast playing in the safe shallow lake and on the jetty, the kayaks were brilliant too. Loved being away from the main city but close enough to get to all the great attractions, Ngongotaha township is a neat wee place with a nice fish and chip place and cafe too. Would definately stay again!! Many thanks Molly

So cute and cozy! All the amenities we could ask for. Beds were very comfortable and the place was clean. We had a problem locking the door but our host was very responsive even though it was Sunday. She had a locksmith fix the door immediately.

Lovely property in a great location for Rotorua attractions. Good communication from landlord. You can't beat kayaking from the bottom of the garden! Though the kayaks don't have seats which limits how long you can go without being uncomfortable. Also only one toilet/shower room which was a bit of a struggle for a family of 5!
