- "We arrived late in the day, and the fire had been lit for us so the house was cozy and inviting. The beds are good, the water pressure is on point and the place is supplied with everything you could think of. It's only a short 7min drive (if that) back into central Taupo, the Landing and the new Countdown are very close and if you're heading to the mountain, you're in the right side of town to head down there. This is a great spot and one we will be back to for our next trip."
