Holiday houses in Tauhara Forest

Loved our stay. Perfect for our family of four. A home away from home in a lovely area, spotlessly clean and Leanne was such a great host. We would book again.

Really nice place with a lot of room. Photos were representative of the site. Easy access to the lake, Mangakino village, club and 4 square. Ilana was quick to respond when I couldn't work the dang stove top (induction top, not my specialty). Great little fire pit, the marshmallow roasting was a hit. Also, the corner section, with the deck facing the footpath makes it a nice social place to be. Had a chat or a wave to a few locals (heading to or coming back from the club!). Also, has great views of the rugby fields, where apparently a few different clubs practice. Overall, great place to stay, very clean and easy to use and helpful host.

Our stay at this stunning home overlooking Lake Taupō and the golf course was nothing short of incredible. The views in every direction were absolutely breathtaking, and the home's design, furnishings, and fittings were all top-notch—every detail was perfect. It truly felt like a dream to wake up in such a beautiful space each morning. This was, without a doubt, our best Airbnb stay ever, and we are so grateful for the opportunity to call this place home for four nights. We can’t recommend it highly enough!

A very nice house out in the southern suburbs. plenty of facilities and the supermarket down the road. Lots of room in the house and a comfy stay for the six of us.

Mandy's house is located in a very quiet area. There are beautiful views outside the house and the interior is decorated with great care. It's a wonderful accommodation experience and highly recommended.

Fantastic location with breathtaking views. Perfectly positioned to take advantage of all the local activities and attractions. House was a wonderful size for our family of six. We can’t wait to visit again.

we are travelling with young kids, got some toys in the house that kept kids occupied for a bit. it is a clean and quiet house.

We absolutely loved our stay here. What a perfect place to return to after completing the Tongariro crossing. Close to the hot pools to recover, and restaurants for some great food. The location is lovely and quiet and communication was excellent. We all had great sleeps in the very comfortable beds. Thank you so much!

Don's place was perfect for our family stay. There were 15 of us in total, with seven children ranging from 3 to 16 in age. The house had plenty of room inside and out and we made good use of the BBQ and decking dining table. We particularly appreciated that each of the four families had their own bathroom and toilet. The only minor issue was that the bunkroom bunks have little headspace (which Don mentioned in advance), which wasn't ideal for the older children. Don is an excellent host, very welcoming, and easily contactable. If the opportunity arises, we would certainly wish to return.
