About this property
RnR Retreat
Settle into R n R Retreat — a warm and welcoming, pet-friendly Taupo escape where you can relax, unwind, and enjoy outdoor living.
Taupo sits at the heart of the North Island, and this three-bedroom home puts you right in the thick of it — close to the lake foreshore, local cafés, and the town centre, yet tucked away enough to feel like a genuine escape.
Inside, the home is warm and well set up for groups of up to eight. Good heating throughout keeps things comfortable year-round, and the practical layout across three bedrooms and two bathrooms means everyone has room to settle in and relax.
The deck is a great spot to fire up the BBQ and take in the lake view, and the home is pet-friendly — so there's no need to leave the dog behind. Whether you're here for the lake, the adventure trails, the fishing, or simply a break from the everyday, R n R Retreat is a relaxed and welcoming base for it all.
