We stayed here on our trip to NZ for a few days. The house was perfectly equipped and clean. The back patio sitting area was a nice bonus to catch the sun for lunch.

Lovely Stay in Taupo
This property was an immaculate beautiful cottage set just up the hill from Taupo lake. We had a very nice walk to dinner and walk back. We would have very much enjoyed a lengthier stay here.

A short but sweet stay
Marigold cottage was the perfect place to break our drive between Auckland and Wellington. We’ve all agreed Taupo deserves more time on another trip.

Great time in Lake Taupo
Our stay in Lake Taupo was wonderful. The Marigold Cottage was convenient for accessing the local attractions and town. Comfortable bed, bbq and spacious living room made for a fun trip. Also, the washer and dryer helped us keep up with our laundry load.

Lovely little Cottage
Two friends and I stayed at Marigold cottage for two nights and enjoyed the little home. We made good use of the great selection of books/magazines and board games available, and the duck food was a plus! Nice outdoor area as well.

Quick Visit
We only stayed one night and so didn’t get to use all of the features offered, but our stay was enjoyable. The place is spacious and clean and check in was easy. It’s a short drive to downtown for restaurants and activities.

Ideal cottage
This cottage had everything we needed for a short break on our trip. It was comfortable, easy to find and spotlessly clean. The outside bathtub was a treat! Next time we plan on a longer stay. Thank you for making this a seamless stay.
