The property isn't the most modern in the area but everything else about it is excellent. Great value for money, excellent area and a friendly boat club/bar/pizzeria just down the road. Why pay double the price. Room was clean, good facilities and a small pool and spa at the rear.

Cascades is pet friendly ( dogs allowed inside). It is right on the waterfront of lake taupo, the staff are super super helpful and friendly. The units are huge ( not brand new) but very clean and very functional and very pleasant. Highly recommend this place. Go there it's worth it.

Liked our stay here, great little path from the room down to the lake for a walk with our doggy, the room was laid out good, had everything we needed for a nice cup coffee and good nights sleep. The bathroom was a little dated and could do with an in depth clean in some areas other than that we enjoyed our stay here the hosts were lovely and very accommodating.

We booked last minute through the Expedia app. The staff were extremely accommodating when we notified then of our late arrival and made arrangements for access after reception had closed. When we arrived the heating was on, which was great because it got to - 3°C that night. In the morning we discovered it was only a dozen steps down to the beach from our patio. And of course great that the place is pet friendly!
