Lake Rotoiti - Absolute Lakefront
Perfectly imperfect family holiday home on the shores of Lake Rotoiti. The property has a large deck to spread out on, 6 seater outdoor table, BBQ. (Please note there are no railings around the decking so small children will need to be watched.
There is a jetty on the property & boat launch access further down the road.
Enjoy the peacefulness & the night sky which is perfect for stargazing. The birdlife is abundant on the property.
It is a humble rustic 2 bedroom home & we are open to discussions about having tents pitched on the property with a maximum of 6 extra people though this will incur extra costs (you supply tents & bedding).
Emery Store (1 km) is a small store that sells basic food supplies, fish'n chips.
Central Rotorua is 27 km away.
This whenua (land) has been in the family many many years & we have decided to share it with others, again perfectly imperfect.
This is a new journey for us as a whanau (family).
