Amazing family vacation!

We just stayed a week at Long Sands and had a fantastic time. The house was spotless and super comfortable for 10 of us ranging from ages 6-74! The view and location are fantastic, the house is well stocked, and Sara was a super communicative host. Thank you!

Family Vacation

We had an amazing week at this house. Beautiful spot. The sand and the water were also excellent. We had three families staying here which included all different age groups and everyone enjoyed themselves. Plenty of beds and bathrooms. Kitchen and living room were perfect for our large group. Great views and sunsets. Thank you to the host and property manager for having us! We hope to do it again next year!!

Wonderful Property

Sara's vacation home on Lake Ossipee is wonderful. There is plenty of space, every imaginable supply in the kitchen and outside. The property was clean and Sara was so easy to contact with questions. There were 17 of us on vacation at the property, from 8 months to 84 and everyone had an amazing time. Thank you Sara.

We had an amazing time at this home on Lake Ossipee. Our family group of 15, ranging in ages from 3 months to 76 had so much fun! There was something for everyone and plenty of space for everyone. Our two four year olds found the shallow water perfect and the sandy bottom is great. We rented a pontoon that we kept at the dock and swam off of that as well. The deck is large and offered plenty of space for crafts and smores. We wish the week lasted longer!

Amazing week at Ossipee

We enjoyed a week at Ossipee in this home. It was equipped with everything we needed and didn't know we needed. We enjoyed s'mores on the deck watching the sunset every night! We rented a pontoon boat for the week at Lakefront Landing (around the corner from the home), and it was a must. We're a southern family, so the cool water temps were a welcome change. The kids (ranging from 8 to 16) and adult 'kids' enjoyed every minute of our trip. Sarah answered ALL our questions before and during our stay. Thanks for a great week!

Exceeded expectations!!!!

Best possible location on Ossippee. Faces sunset and mountains, the 'long sands' were a perfect way for the grandkids to enjoy the water. Safe sturdy deck that was easy to navigate the 24' pontoon boat we rented. Comfy couch and dinner table on the deck. Inside was well appointed and fully stocked with essentials. Sara was responsive throughout the booking, check in, stay, and departure process. Couldn’t have asked for anything else. Thank you for sharing this special spot with us

Our family had a wonderful week. The shallow water and sandy bottom were perfect for our 8 grandchildren, ages 2 to 13. They also loved the floats, kayaks and paddle board. We rented a pontoon boat for two days from nearby Lakefront Marina and tied up to the dock. The kitchen with everything supplied was amazing. We enjoyed the gas grill in the screen porch. We had some great meals sitting at the huge table inside, or on the large deck, with the amazing view. Sunsets were incredible. Sarah was very responsive to our text messages. Everyone was sad to leave. The time went by too fast.

This beautiful lake house is exactly as advertised. The owners obviously care about the property and the renters experience. There are plenty of amenities for lake enjoyment and clear and helpful notes on the house and overall area. Sarah is just a text away with any questions or issues. My family had an amazing time. Highly Recommend this property.

Amazing stay

We loved this property! The sandy lake bottom and clean, clear water made swimming and boating such a treat. The included kayaks were a great bonus, as were the floats for lounging in the lake. When out of the water, we took in views of the mountains from the dock, porch, or large windows from inside. The beautiful, modern kitchen was fun to use and had everything we needed to make all our meals at home. Sleeping was very comfortable on the new beds - terrific breezes with the sliding doors or windows opened, and on the warmest night we appreciated having the AC option. We found a brand new playground and nice walking trails for the kids a short jog/bike ride away. Thanks to the Blais family for the great communication and for allowing us to rent their place!

Family reunion at the lake

Our family had a great time at the lake house. The house was spacious enough for everyone. The kitchen was vey well stocked with everything we needed for cooking. The dock and lake front location were perfect for boating and swimming. We also enjoyed the nearby trails and fishing access. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would definitely return to this location.

Excellent lakehouse getaway!

This was a perfect rental for our needs. For background, four related families and we each had our own rooms for the adults with the kids sharing rooms and separate bathrooms for each family unit, which was super helpful. The house - it has modernized amenities which made it feel very much not like a lakehouse but a comfortable home to be relaxing in when not at the lake. The rooms were all well sized and the bathrooms updated with current fixtures. Hot water was never an issue which can sometimes be an issue with a lakehouse. There was quite a bit of any needed equipment for cooking in the kitchen for meals as well as utensils and dishes. Everything was clean and comfortable. The best component was the wall to wall windows so you can watch the lake as the sunrises light up the mountains across the lake and set in the evening over those same mountains without moving from the couch if you are so inclined. Exterior - there is no specific beach but the water right off the shore is like a foot deep and doesn't get deeper than 3-4 feet for about 100+ yards from the end of the pier. It is a sandy bottom so it is kind of an underwater beach in a way. Barely any rocks or debris in those shallows. The shallowness of the water made sure the water temp was much warmer than most New England lakes, which then if you want the cooler water you just go walking to the drop off where it cools off. The shallowness of the water also helped with younger children as it might be up to their necks when they stood on bottom but could still swim. Any concerns about the shallowness and boats don't worry as the neighbors were able to moor their boat to their dock at the same depth so barring a really deep draft of the boat you should be able to get it in there pretty well. Kayaks and floaties were provided which were well used and enjoyed by the family . Owner was super responsive. A storm came through and damaged a tree on the property which they had removed the next day without any impact on our vacation. Only negative that I could really come up with is a lack of an above water beach which if you are a beach person that might be an issue. But we were more water people than beach people so a floating platform to lay on was perfect for us. We had a blast and was excellent for such a large group as we had. Highly recommend!
