Kerry 
“Beautiful house in a peaceful setting.”
We enjoyed our stay. Thank you
We enjoyed our stay. Thank you
- Kerry, November 2024 -
Moira “Great property especially the location.”
Lovely and clean and well provisioned. We will definitely look at visiting again.
- Moira, October 2024Tony “Have stayed before but the place is getting tired and we paid a big cleaning fee but it didnt look like it had been cleaned before we arrived.”
Also we booked for 5 people and the linen for the fold out couch was for a single bed when the couch is a double. Apart from that its a good location
- Tony, December 2023Thank you for your feedback Tony, we are sorry to hear about the cleaning issues during your stay. This is not the standard we expect for our guests and will be following up with the local manager to ensure everything has been remedied and that future guests are not impacted Bachcare
Siobhan “The property was great and had everything we needed.”
I don’t think it had been used in a while as there were a number of dead bugs inside or it hadn’t been vacuumed. The firewood was also damp so didn’t put out much heat but we found a heater to run with it. All in all it’s a lovely place and we would happily stay again.
- Siobhan, September 2023We are delighted you enjoyed your stay at this well-equipped home and thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. This will certainly be addressed and we look forward to welcoming you back soon Siobhan. Bachcare
Kerri “The deck felt a little wobbly”
- Kerri, July 2023Paul “We really enjoyed staying here.”
It was very clean and well organized with everything you might need. The beds were comfortable and clean and kitchen was well setup. Between the wood fire and the electric oil heater we were comfortable even in on cold days in winter.
- Paul, July 2023Bev “Great accomodation.”
Had everything we needed. Location was ideal. Plenty of firewood to keep us warm and cozy.
- Bev, June 2023Francine “Great little house in a great location.”
- Francine, December 2022Linda “We enjoyed our stay, nice clean and tidy bach!”
Lots of space for children to run around and nice backing on to the reserve
- Linda, April 2022Danielle “No Wifi, payed a cleaning fee only to be instructed we would need to carry that out down to cleaning skirting board's and polishing mirror's.”
We also had to take all rubbish from the property. Will never stay with Bachcare again. Location was ok given walking distance to lake
- Danielle, March 2022Paula “Lovely private place amongst the trees and bird life.”
Easy walk to Two Mile Bay. Great bathroom,
- Paula, December 2021Noelene “A delightful and very private little holiday home just a few minutes walk from Lake Taupo.”

- Noelene, October 2021Tara “Favourite stay and will be back”
- Tara, June 2021Rudolf “Lovely hide-away, very quiet and well equipped.”
Comfortable beds and renovated bathroom. Two minute walk from the Lake, 8 minute drive from city centre. Can highly recommend.
- Rudolf, January 2021Jean “Lovely bach in good location.”

- Richard, October 2020Frida “Great family stay within taupo town centre.”
Clean and affordable. We love it
- Frida, March 2020Bruce “Lovely location, close to Lake Taupo and town.”
Private and surrounded by trees with a park at the back boundary. House renovations very good esp the bathroom which was excellent. Comfortable bed. Small dogs allowed which was essential for us. Had everything we wanted for a very peaceful, restful and comfortable stay.
- Bruce, February 2020Diana “Fabulous little house in a super location”
- Diana, December 2019kate “A cute little place for 4, good value for money.”
Convenient location and quiet.
- kate, October 2019Dan “A great place for our family weekend.”
Very warm & cosy, with the fireplace, even though the middle of winter. Handy to town. Private.
- Dan, August 2019Chris “Nice and tidy little place.”
Fireplace is good in winter. Agree with comment that the sofa bed is not ideal for 2 people, but would otherwise gladly stay here again.
- Chris, July 2019Jan “Great place.”
Quiet and nice home if taking your dog. Reserve below house to exercise animals. Tidy and close to lake frontage.
- Jan, March 2019David “The house is great for 4 guests, we had maximum of 6 and the fold out couch was a roll together non sleeper, which was not at all comfortable.”
A few breakfast essential condiments would have great. Nice little house, cleaner now than when we got there. Walk down to the Two mile Boat Bar, best day into night bar when they have live bands. Cheers DJ.
- David, January 2019Thanks for your feedback for Matuku St Hideaway, DJ. We haven't had feedback about the fold out couch previously and the owners are really happy to provide a mattress topper to make it more comfortable for future guests. We apologise that the cleaning was not up to our usual Bachcare standards and we have passed your feedback on to the Holiday Manager in charge of this property who has ensured this is rectified. We hope to see you again! Bachcare
