If you are somewhere around Lake Taupo and you are looking for a camp, come here at the Reids Farm. Waking up just one step from the river is really nice way to start a day. #weekendgetaway

Rangatira Park

If you're spending some time in Rangatira Park, Spa Thermal Park and Waikato River are top sights worth seeing.

Rangatira Park
Some may have seen this in photos before, but no photo does it justice; or shows you the awesomeness quite like when you are standing directly on the side of the boat and within metres of this brilliant carving. I took a small boat that served treats, pizza and wine. Although travelling alone I was able to meet people on this trip very easily. I went on the Ernest Kemp Steamboat. Such character and lovely staff.

Acacia Bay

Lake views and restaurants are notable features of Acacia Bay. You might consider a stop by Lake Taupo while you're exploring the neighborhood.

Looking out across Lake Taupo at the Central North Island volcanoes, Mount Ruapehu, Mount Ngauruhoe, and Mount Tongariro. The town of Taupo is very nice, with plenty of cheap hostels, around $25-35 per night
