Sunrise Cottage

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Come relax and enjoy the lake at this beautiful home. This delightful getaway was completely renovated in 2020 and has exquisite views of Lake Winnipesaukee and access to the property’s private waterfront and sandy beach area.

This cottage features an open-concept living room, dining room, and kitchen with a great screened porch overlooking the lake and mountains beyond. Enjoy boating, swimming, fishing, hiking, and lots more. The kitchen is fully equipped with a four-burner gas stove, refrigerator, microwave, and prep island.

Summer with friends or family on the lake is where memories are created. The wide dock and sandy beach make a wonderful place to do an early morning yoga routine as the sun rises or a relaxing place to swim, float, or soak up the sun. In the evening you can enjoy grilling and watching the sunset. The screened porch is the perfect place to play games, read a book, or simply look out on the water.

The fall foliage is a must-see in the Lakes Region. One can enjoy the fall colors from the comfort of the cottage. Fall is also an opportunity to rest, relax and read a good book as you sit on the couch enjoying the magnificent views of Lake Winnipesaukee.

There are two separate buildings on the property that can be rented. Besides this lovely Sunrise Cottage, there is a larger home that sleeps 10, Sunrise Bay, and together can be rented as the combined Sunrise Estate, sleeping 14 total.

Super nice.
Highly recommend. Good view to lake. Super clean and new. Comfortable. Note it’s not # 9 for the address. It’s the cottage to the left. Very unclear in the directions.

Not Waterfront
Pro’s: This cottage is awesome!! It is the perfect size for 3 or 4 people. We loved, loved, loved the screen porch which had a view of the lake. If you like to fish there is a lot of good size fish right off the dock. Con’s: This is not waterfront property. You have to walk through the front and back yard of the neighboring house to get to the stairs. There are a 100+ steep stairs down to the dock and little beach area that is shared. I would not recommend this for family with little kids (under 10).

Beautiful Lake Front Views
Absolutely gorgeous cottage that is obviously newly renovated with nice hard wood floors and views overlooking two parts of the lake. Cottage has a little screened in porch that is perfect for reading or enjoying the weather. Bedroom has a view of lake as well that is nice to wake up to. One thing to keep in mind is the property has two buildings (cottage and lakehouse) the cottage is a little off to the side of the driveway (properties share the dock). The cottage is perfect for a romantic getaway with unbeatable views. The owners are incredibly nice and welcoming. I would come back in a heartbeat!
