Keene accommodation from NZ$112

We had the BEST time at The Rove! Our group included 5 couples and 12 kids ranging in age from 7 to 20, and everyone had an amazing time. There were plenty of beds for everyone, and having three full bathrooms in both the East and West houses made our stay so comfortable. Our mornings were spent enjoying coffee in the Adirondack chairs around the fire pit. It was the perfect spot—shaded, breezy, and overlooking the lake. There was no shortage of activities! My family loved playing pickleball (we brought our own net, along with a tape measure and painter's tape to mark the court), pool volleyball, and fishing, which was a HUGE hit with the kids. We also brought several yard games, which everyone enjoyed throughout the day. We cooked all of our dinners in the pool house since it has the most supplies and the largest workspace. The Blackstone grill was a fantastic bonus and made cooking for a large group so easy. In the evenings, we gathered around the sports court, listened to music, and watched the kids play epic games of basketball. It was such a fun way to end each day. Brandi was incredibly responsive and helpful with every question I had before and during our stay. We couldn't have asked for a better place for our family vacation and would absolutely stay at The Rove again! A few tips for future renters: *Bring some extra shade for the pool area if you're visiting during the warmer months. We brought two pop-up canopies and set them up near the pool steps, which made a huge difference. *If you enjoy a glass of wine with dinner, pack a few wine glasses, as those were limited. *There are convenient stores just a short drive away, and there's plenty of freezer space, so it's easy to stock up on ice and other essentials for your stay. *Bring extra outside chairs to move around the property at ease
