Lake Tarawera House | Tui Glen - Lake front bach with stunning views

2 Bedroom House in Lake Tarawera

An original Lockwood holiday home on a sheltered lake edge section in Boatshed Bay. Furnished with an open plan kitchen, dining and living area and a gas fireplace for winter. Boardwalk and steps lead down through bush and tree ferns to a shared deep water jetty. The deck, equipped with outdoor furniture and a gas barbeque, provides stunning views across the lake to Mt Tarawera and Kariri Point. The carport at the rear of the bach provides cover for two vehicles.
Native birdlife abounds, a family of quails occasionally meander over the lawn and glow worms can be seen at the bottom of the steps in the evening. The site is private and peaceful and allows for full enjoyment of all that Lake Tarawera has to offer including safe swimming, lakeside walking tracks, trout fishing, boating, mountain biking or just relaxing.
Situated near the start of the Tarawera settlement it is only a scenic 20 minute drive from Rotorua city centre and a short drive to the local lakeside cafe and the Buried Village at Te Wairoa. The nearest boat ramp is a couple of minutes drive along the road, or a five minute walk along the lake front track, and is where guests can park their boat trailers. There is a landline phone at the bach but no wifi at present. There is now also reasonable cellphone coverage in the area.
Tui Glen is a great place to escape to at any time of the year and is ideal for couples or small families.

Summary: The view in pictures captured my heart, and in real life it did not disappoint! The sunrise view is priceless! The bach itself was clean, comfortable, and well layed out for up to 4 visitors. We enjoyed listening to the many birds who visited us. Note that the driveway is steep and the road is windy

Summary: This is a second time visiting here and may I say it was just aswesome as the first stay. The place is very clean and well organised. The kayaks and the jetty are the real highlight. Will definitely be back in the future. Paradise.

Summary: Classic kiwi batch with everything you need together with an awesome outlook and direct access to the lake. Unfortunately only two days but with the secluded location and bush surrounds it really felt like we were on holiday! We’ll definitely be back (if we can get a booking! :-)
