Summary: Our group of 4 really enjoyed this rental. It is in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful view of Lake Ohau. At night it was dark enough to see thousands of stars. This home is quite spacious. There are two main living rooms. The kitchen is large and well stocked. There are three comfortable bedrooms. We really enjoyed the large wrap around porch.

Summary: Great location. Great property. Great holiday. Very impressed with info supplied in case of civil defence emergency etc. Although communication about entry to premises could be better from Bookabach and informing guests that the water is not safe to drink unless boiled would be beneficial allowing guests to buy bottled water before arrival.
