The property
Welcome to Duck Inn, a peaceful family-friendly retreat nestled among mature trees and filled with the soothing sounds of native birdsong. Located just minutes from both the Kuratau River and the sparkling waters of Lake Taupo, this inviting holiday home is the perfect base for families, friends, and outdoor enthusiasts looking to relax and reconnect with nature. Step onto the spacious balcony and soak up the tranquil surroundings, where you can enjoy your morning coffee while listening to the chorus of local birdlife. Inside, the bright and welcoming open-plan living area provides plenty of room for everyone to gather, whether you're sharing stories after a day of adventure, enjoying a family meal around the dining table, or curling up beside the fire on cooler evenings. The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to make holiday dining easy, from hearty breakfasts before heading out on the lake to relaxed dinners shared with loved ones. With four generous bedrooms featuring comfortable beds, there's ample space for everyone to enjoy a restful night's sleep. Two bathrooms add convenience for larger groups and families. Spend your days fishing the renowned Kuratau River, boating and swimming on Lake Taupo, or exploring the nearby walking and cycling trails. With boat parking available and plenty of outdoor space, Duck Inn makes it easy to bring all your holiday essentials. For a relaxing lakeside escape surrounded by natural beauty and adventure, Duck Inn is ready to welcome you.

About the location
On the opposite side of the lake to Taupo, Kuratau is a small peaceful town with plenty of outdoor activities on offer. Spend the day out on the water with kayaks, boats and water skis, or go fly fishing for rainbow trout in the Tongariro River. Being further away from the bustle of Taupo, it's also an ideal location for a relaxing holiday to get away from it all. All of our Kuratau holiday homes are pre-inspected prior to your arrival and are ready for instant online booking.

“As a palliative care patient, I was incredibly fortunate to be gifted a Time Out property.”
Your generosity in putting your property on this site was a much-appreciated gift for my family and to make memories in nature. It made me feel revitalised in mind and soul. Watching the bird life was incredible with tui, kereru, bellbirds, and parrots visiting daily. The use of the wood fire made it all so cozy and relaxing. Thank you again for your generosity. The weekend was a great, successful experience for us all, as we had a group of 8.

We’re truly honoured to hear that your stay at the Time Out property brought comfort and revitalisation to both you and your whānau. It’s incredibly heartening to know that the peaceful surroundings, native birdlife, and cozy wood fire helped create meaningful memories during such an important time. Your kind words are a wonderful reminder of why these properties exist: to offer rest, connection, and joy in nature. We’re deeply grateful for your feedback and so pleased that the experience was a positive one for your group. Wishing you continued strength and serenity, and we hope to welcome you again in the future. Bachcare
