Your Private Retreat
The three sumptuous, upstairs king bedrooms each feature: En suite bath rooms, underfloor heating, Smart TVs and Chromecast audio throughout the home, serene lake or garden views.
A cosy mezzanine lounge with books, games, and balcony seating provides an additional place to relax away from the main living area.
Relax, Connect, and Savour the View
The heart of the lodge is its open-plan living area, where a towering riverstone fireplace creates a welcoming focal point. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame uninterrupted views of Lake Tarawera and Mount Tarawera, making every sunrise and sunset unforgettable. A grand dining room is perfect for leisurely celebratory dinners, while the well-equipped kitchen and breakfast room offer fresh coffee, tea, and homemade treats.
Outdoor Indulgence
Soak under the stars in the spa, warm up in the sauna, or unwind by the outdoor fireplace with a glass of wine. Enjoy al fresco dining on the expansive deck, explore the gardens, or take in the lake panorama from the sunloungers and hammock. On balmy evenings, set up the wireless projector for an outdoor movie under the night sky.
