What a gem! Fabulous location. The house was lovely with lots of cozy sitting areas inside and out on the patio. Please note: there are many stairs down to the house which presented a challenge for some in our group. That said, we all agreed it was well worth the effort! Would love to stay again next year.

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. The location is beautiful and the home was very well appointed, comfortable, and clean. We don't generally cook on our trips, but if that's your thing, the kitchen had a large selection of pots and pans, enough decent knives to prepare a meal, and lots of tableware. It was also conveniently located to things we wanted to see in the White Mountains as well as Portsmouth. Two things that would make this place perfect for visitors who aren't familiar with the property: A motion sensor or some other way get the light turned on at the top of the outdoor stairs when you return in the dark and have forgotten to leave the outdoor lights on; and, something to draw the eye to the little lip leading from the living area into the downstairs bathroom. We all caught our feet on it. Other than that, we found this house to be a fantastic place to call home base for our trip.

Thanks to this family who allowed us to get our “lake fix”. The home is family inclusive and well appointed. We were not for want of anything. Our family is 5 adults we all felt lake cozy. Again thanks to this family for allowing us to share their well loved home

Great location & place

Great spot on the lake between the cove & islands. House was in great shape and having a relaxing living space on each floor was convenient. While there were a good amount of stairs to get from the driveway to the house, it was well-maintained. The view was phenomenal from just about everywhere in the house and the second floor deck was nice but could have used some chairs/tables. Would definitely rent again.

Peaceful Lakeside Retreat

We spent 4 days at this beautiful home on the lake. The house was immaculate and quietly situated in a cove. We swam, kayaked and read on the deck. This would be perfect for a large family vacation and we’ll be back with our kids for sure.

Amazing deck overlooking the lake

Phenomenal location with fantastic dock, expansive multi-level outdoor area, and kitchen with ample cooking equipment. We had a great week and would recommend to anyone that loves spending time without the distractions of too-crowded coves, or noisy neighbors. Really amazing place to unwind, swim, kayak and boat.
