☆☆ BEDROOMS ☆☆

This spacious home offers four large, cozy bedrooms. There are three bedrooms upstairs on the third floor and one family suite on the lower level.

The primary bedroom is a stunning room with high ceilings and wood flooring. The large windows allow in natural light during the day and the comfortable recliners in a sitting area near the window create a beautiful quiet place to enjoy your morning coffee overlooking the treetops, mountains, and Lake Winnipesaukee.

The other two upper-level bedrooms also offer lovely views of the surrounding landscape and a cozy mountain lodge aesthetic with solid wood bed frames, large windows, and plush carpeting. One bedroom has a queen-sized bed and the other a twin-over-full bunk bed.

On the lower level, there is a family suite that comfortably sleeps four, making it the perfect place for a group of kids or a couple with children.

☆☆ BATHROOMS ☆☆

The primary bedroom ensuite bathroom is bright and spacious, featuring a jacuzzi tub, a beautifully tiled walk-in shower, and a stylish double vanity with two mirrors. The other full bathroom upstairs caters to the remaining two bedrooms and offers a combination bathtub and shower.

A third full bathroom caters to the first-floor bedroom suite. This stylish bathroom has a walk-in shower, attractive wood paneling, and a single vanity with bright lighting.

Finally, there is a half bathroom on the main level that caters to the kitchen and two living rooms in the heart of the home. The bathrooms are stocked with fresh towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and soap for your convenience.

☆☆ KITCHEN, LOUNGES & DINING ☆☆

This serene home features beautiful and spacious areas for friends and family to come together and enjoy some peaceful downtime during your well-earned vacation to Gilford and the Lakes Region.

The large fully-stocked kitchen on the main floor is ideal for a group getaway and gives you everything you need to prepare delicious meals. Stainless steel appliances and a large fridge are fitted into an open-plan layout with a kitchen island and coffee station that adds to the convenience of the space.

The dining room features stylish lighting and a large table that seats ten, and direct access to the kitchen, which has a second table for six. From there, french doors lead outside into the beautifully-landscaped yard. The kitchen island and outdoor dining table provide other options for enjoying your meals.

Two elegant living rooms are placed across two levels of this beautiful home, each with a large TV and unique style, making it easy for your whole group to spread out.

The lower-floor lounge is a great movie room with its reclining sofas and massive HDTV. The main floor is home to another living area, forming the heart of the home and oozing a mountain lodge charm, with a stone fireplace, antler chandelier, and beautiful wooden furniture. Relax, watch TV, read, or just spend quality time with your friends and family!

☆☆ OUTSIDE SPACE ☆☆

Granite Vista is the perfect four-season home where you can take in unique surroundings any time of the year. The spacious and private plot makes this home the perfect venue for families and has the bonus of being dog-friendly so you can bring your furry friend along.

The home’s second-floor balcony creates a peaceful place to enjoy the surroundings throughout the day, with direct access from the main living room.

The backyard patio has outdoor dining furniture and is a special place to light up the grill and enjoy delicious meals with a view. A sliding door from the lower-level living room gives direct access to a pathway to the driveway.

We respect your privacy! There are no interior cameras. We do have a doorbell camera at each exterior door for your safety and for the security of our home. Please do not tamper with these devices - it is a violation of house rules.

** PLEASE NOTE - This property does not have a hot tub. There is a glitch in Vrbo's software showing a number of properties as having hot tubs when, in reality, they do not. If you're looking for a hot tub, our recommendation is that you confirm the presence of a hot tub with the property host if Vrbo is listing a hot tub as an amenity. **

Year-Round Driveway Restrictions: Due to the unique nature of our property's long, steep driveway, guests are prohibited from accessing the premises with trailers, vehicles equipped with lift gates, or low-clearance vehicles. Unfortunately, there is nowhere in our driveway, on the property, or on the street that you would be able to park a boat or a trailer carrying another vehicle. Please plan accordingly!

This restriction is in place to ensure the safety of our guests and to prevent potential damage to both the vehicles and the driveway.

By booking Granite Vista, you are agreeing to these House Rules, acknowledging and accepting responsibility for adhering to these driveway restrictions during your stay. Failure to comply may result in additional fees or termination of the reservation without refund.

We love dogs! We warmly welcome your canine companions to our home! For the safety and comfort of all, we kindly ask that you keep your furry friends on a leash when outside, pick up after them with poop bags, and be mindful of other dogs in the neighborhood.

The Ultimate Peace of Mind for Our Guests with Waivo:

Instead of charging a separate security deposit like many hosts do, our rental rates already include a damage waiver fee that covers up to $3,000 for damage to real or personal property of our vacation rental property as a result of your acts or omissions.

To learn more about how the damage waiver works, please see our house rules in the interactive guide that you will receive prior to your arrival date.

Relax and enjoy your stay with peace of mind knowing that if an accident happens and damage occurs, you are protected under Waivo.

Property owner assumes no responsibility for personal loss, injury, or illness of any kind which may result from use of the bunk bed and ladder. The owners are not liable for any accidents occurring.

Gorgeous home and location
Our mix of friends and family had such a wonderful stay at this stunning property. The house was exactly as described (with very comfortable beds) and featured a terrific view of the lake. Lots of space both inside and out, and we enjoyed being able to take full advantage of the grilling area. Our host Jason was both responsive and kind in every way, can’t thank him enough for his patience and for making our weekend.

Here Are A Few Kind Words From Our Past Guests:

"This house is breathtaking, clean & cozy with breathtaking views. The kitchen has the most I've seen in any vacation rental. From plenty of plates, right down to ziplock bags, aluminum foil, cling wrap and any utensil you need. There was even a canister full of fresh coffee! Jason made us feel like we were family or friends staying at his place." - Kaitlyn

What makes this property unique

You can tell from the home’s craftsmanship, attention-to-detail, and structural integrity that the original owners truly expected to live here year round, and for many years. It's a destination unto itself, but also close enough to grocery stores, hardware stores, craft stores, and restaurants (15 minutes away), skiing (5 minutes away), and day trips throughout the New Hampshire Lakes Region.

We escape the city for our home in the woods as often as possible, but we also love sharing our home with responsible families and groups of friends who will treat our home respectfully.
