Family-friendly vacation rentals in Ohakune

Great to have a massive grass area out the front for lawn games. The big living area, deck and spa pool also nice. Well layed out house for entertaining and relaxing after our running event. Close to the big carrot / park, would be nice for families too.

The best place to be with a large group of friends or family. Amazing space with plenty of space and thoughtful touches (marshmallows by the fire was a crowd favourite). Beautiful views of the mountian and close enough to both skifields to beat the crowds. Hope to stay here again soon.

We had a great stay. The remote location and wood burning stove plus wood burning hot tub made things feel very cozy and unique. We had a blast keeping the fires going and spending time in the tub on the deck and watching deer and birds go by. Highly recommend the experience!

Homey, light filled clean house. Very well equipped for self caterer. Good heating. 15 minute drive to Whakapapa Visitor Centre. 2 minute drive (or walkable distance) to bars/restaurants, 4 Square supermarket at petrol station and liquor store.

Such a beautiful home with lots of character. Perfect spot for a few families and lots of room for the kids to run around outside. We loved our stay and will be back hopefully next snow season 😊

Andy was a very responsive and proactive host which made us feel relaxed and reassured to reach out if needed. The home was as described and suited our needs perfectly. The view was just glorious and the location fantastic!

Great place to stay. Excellent communication with host. Very well equipped and lovely hot tub! Highly recommended.

We enjoyed our two night stay in this comfortable apartment, and the hosts were very welcoming! We enjoyed the homemade bread and thoughtful touches as well!

Lovely spot , great location with access to the lake, river walk, and easy drive 5 minute drive into Taupo. Well fenced for children and outside bath was a treat. Will be back again next time we visit Taupo

Thanks Wayne Apologies for the delay responding What a wonderful and unique place you have - so authentic, just like you. We felt so comfortable and relaxed - plenty of space for 9 of us Appreciated Nigel

Was a great place to stay for our group. Had everything we needed and lovely to have the beds and linen done for us. Great location and view and very nice people to deal with. Thank you for having us.

Stunning view of Mount Ruapehu as you drive to Ohakune! Great region to explore or rest for the night! Kate has a guestbook with everything you need to know about her place, recommendations of where to eat, and what to explore in the area. We needed a night’s rest before driving to Auckland all the way from Wellington, and I’m glad we chose her place. 5 stars!

Wonderful wee railway cottage. Kids cracked up/crapped their pants when the trains roared past in the night but it became part of their norm in no time. Great wee cottage with everything we needed and close to town. Perfect for going up the mountain and super helpful host! Thank you.

Amazing accommodation!!! Highly recommend. The property was clean and tidy and the amenities were top notch!! We had a great weekend and would book here again.

The warmth and snugness from the wood stove and great selection of books made it a great place to stay even in bad weather. Comfortable beds and duvets but I found the single bed mattresses too firm for me

Second time staying here and was as good as we remembered. Love the fireplace! Great spot as about 45 minutes from the snow.

Amazing quiet and warm lodge nestled in an amazing location.

Lovely stay in a beautiful location- thanks again.

Nice place has everything for a ski trip. Huge living space , love the dry room.

Great location convenient for exploring Tongariro National Park and the Tongariro Crossing. Comfortable and clean home. Helpful, friendly, and responsive hosts. Would definitely come back.

The booking was accurate and not fussy in that you felt at home. Sharon was very proactive as soon as i made the booking and accomodating when i needed extra request because i had an event on. Thanks ill definitely be back!

What a great stay for our family of 5 visiting Tongariro National Park. Convenient to food in National Park as well as all the hiing trails in the area. The Barn was very spacious and had eveything we needed in addition to being located on a lovely, peaceful property. We highly recommend choosing Tim's barn if you're in need of accomodation in the area and want something unique and cozy. Tim is a great host and goes out of his way to make sure you are comfortable in your stay.

Warm bach just right for the stormy weather that came through. Lots to keep us busy. Thanks

Great open plan kitchen/living/dining area. BBQ was excellent. Being a group of fisherman, a few hooks around the place etc would have been handy to air out waders at the end of the day....but these sort of things were minor annoyances. Bunk room a little cramped, however all things considered an ideal place for a group of 5-7 anglers. Thanks Kim👍
