Perfect Springtime getaway!

This was the perfect spot for a little Spring time getaway before the craziness of summer. Peaceful water view, lovely walks along the lake with many friendly fellow walkers and residents. Definitely on my list to return as it's an easy 1 hour drive for me. A friend joined my on day 3 & 4, she loved it too.

We had a fun and relaxing week at the Cozy Crescent Cottage. It was the prettiest spot on the lake with amazing sunsets. We enjoyed swimming, fishing, kayaking, and hiking on nearby trails. The nearby waterfall was my favorite spot. The T-shirt Shop was a fun, well-stocked surprise, and we made several trips for souvenirs! The cottage was so well equipped for cooking all our meals. The attention to detail in the cottage made you realize Melanie and Glenn care about making it a stress-free and wonderful place to recharge and build family memories. They were quick to answer questions and even checked on us after a thunderstorm. We would highly recommend the cottage and would like to return someday.

Nature Oasis

My dad, husband, and I all gravitated to the back deck and view of the lake. It was so peaceful and pleasant. The birds eating bugs in the air and ducks with their ducklings provided hours of viewing pleasure. We'd report to eachother when a certain momma duck was back and gather to watch the ducklings. Fishing, kayaking, biking around the lake and walking the nature trail, were all great too, but nothing compared to being so connected to the lake.

Absolute paradise! Hubby and I woke up at 5am every morning just to have a cup of coffee in front of the huge picture window overlooking the pond! Hosts were super quick to respond with any questions!! Cottage was cozy and VERY well equipped! The weather wasn’t super cooperative, so we are looking forward to rebooking to a time that we could utilize the outdoor amenities…. But it just gives us a reason to come back!! Thank you Melanie and Glenn

Relaxing and fun trip with our family and dog!

The pictures didn’t do this place justice, we were pleasantly surprised the house was bigger than we thought and so adorable. There were boats to use and everything we needed including lots of comfy places for a nap! The lake was warm and so clear. We had such a wonderful vacation, would highly recommend!!!

Cozy Cottage

My husband & I needed a break before summer started & our work lives get crazy. This beautiful cottage was exactly what we needed. The peacefulness while watching birds & wildlife. The only know is go shopping prior to arriving. We went to Shaws that was 17 min away. It was so grossly over priced. Maybe due to the remoteness of the area....other than that this was a fantastic getaway.

Great weekend trip!

This cottage is adorable, well-stocked, clean, and in a gorgeous setting. The hosts were communicative and also laid back and supportive. This was the perfect spot for a friend get-together and would also be great for families. We stayed in the fall and the foliage was beautiful. The surrounding nature trails were lovely.

NH Ski Getaway

We stayed at this beautiful cottage located on a lake for a ski vacation and we loved it. The style of the cottage is adorable and cozy. When we weren't skiing we loved hanging out by the wood burning stove, working on the puzzle, or watching movies as a family in the back room. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Cozy, comfortable stay

This lake house is an ideal relaxing getaway. My family stayed for 5 nights and enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen, beautiful deck, and lake amenities. We had our meals on the deck by sunset, went swimming, floating, canoeing, and built a fire each night as well. Don't miss the adorable local t-shirt shop, and the nearby walking trails, which are lovely, and be sure to hit up Balthazar's Ice Shack for ice cream.

Wonderful stay at a beautiful little cottage!

My husband and I (and our dog) had a great experience at this adorable lake house. The house and property are exactly as listed and the host was very quick to respond to messages and texts when we had questions. Even on the one rainy day of our trip the view of the lake was beautiful and we had fun playing games inside while looking out at the water. We definitely plan to return in the future!

Cozy cottage

It was a nice little cottage with a great view. The property was clean and well appointed as described. The hosts clearly take pride in their property and are responsive and kind. If you are looking for a locale where you can quickly get to a town/shopping/dining, this is not the ideal place, but we enjoyed staying here and explored. Would definitely go back.

This is a cozy and clean cottage on the waters edge. The owners are friendly and easy to contact as well as helpful. The property is very clean and well organized with plenty of sleeping and seating areas. Not to mention well supplied from the kitchen to the recreation areas. There is plenty of wild life to observe as well as beautiful scenery. We thoroughly enjoied ourselves and will be booking again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Melanie

Host profile image
We are an active family from Southern NH. For nearly 10 years we have owned and operated a popular community cafe, and so we are no strangers to the service industry. We love to travel, so when the pandemic demanded some changes for us in 2020, we sunk our trust into some carefully selected properties (we currently have three! look at us go!) and began listing them as short term vacation rentals when we aren't enjoying them ourselves. Come visit when we can't!

Why they chose this property

This settled little cottage is nestled in a nature lovers dream land. Its only an hour from MHT airport, but it feels like its 40 or 50 years back in time . The lake frontage can't be beat, there's well over 100 feet of shoreline, mixed with gentle walk-in sand bottom, (great for littles!) And a dock! The quiet community of owners at Crescent Lake is small and kind, and this lake house life is great for families or for those who want to disconnect from the hustle bustle and slow down for mental health's sake. Basically it's ok if you've lost your marbles, because the floors are too crooked to play them here anyhow! It's just what the Dr ordered!!

What makes this property unique

Theres a brook to one side of the property, and some easy sunny rocking chairs on the front porch to listen to the babble and the birds. Inside, the calming benefits of an old fashioned NH cottage (let the front screen door slam!) meet modern amenities like smart tvs, chargers, and fast wifi. We LOVE it here and hope you will too.
