Best Place to Stay on Winni
To start off, Harold’s Camp is everything it was advertised and then some! It truly is a special place. We want to describe the feel and vibe of the cabin but it is hard to put into words without ruining the first impression you will get walking in, and that is something you should see for yourself. The sights and smells transport you back to a simpler time when life was a bit slower and not so tech. It’s the perfect space to unplug, unwind, and get back to the basics. The views of the lake are spectacular with plenty of boats to watch during the day, the loons are plentiful in the evenings and mornings here, with quiet sunrises and sunsets. Even the thunderstorms were awesome to watch from the porch. The cabin itself is amazingly clean, the property well kept, and the neighbors not too close…so you actually feel like you’re at a camp and not a subdivision. For those of you bringing boats the dock is excellent. Water is plenty deep enough water and even though there is boat traffic, it doesn’t beat your boat up with the direction they are going. Amanda was very helpful, and answered any questions we had. We 100% recommend you stay here…not one bad thing to say.

Wonderful!
We had a totally perfect experience at Harold’s Camp. The lake was beautiful and the house was so nicely set up for our stay. We could not have asked for a better place to rent on Winnipesaukee.

Perfect
I couldn't fault this property or the property manager. The location is glorious and the property is extremely well maintained and managed. The property manager was responsive, friendly and went out of her way to help us. There may be some larger properties in the area, but we didn't think any could match the location of this one. We would definitely stay here again.

Magical
Great place to stay, just feet from the water. Owners are very responsive and have taken great care of the property both inside and out. The stone fire place inside is the focal point of this cabin and great to have on cool days and nights. The dock is big and in the sun all day so is a great place to sit and watch nature. Loons eagles ducks woodpeckers and all sorts of other birds are around all day. Being south facing we enjoyed both sunrise and sunsets every day. Thanks for a great vaca. And hope to be back next year!!
