Wonderful Lakeside Family Vacation

Wonderful house with everything to relax and enjoy a lakeside family vacation. Great layout for gathering together and relaxing separately with so many comfy seating areas. Especially loved sunset kayaking, fireside s’mores and the new lakeside deck.

Great NH Stay

This home was a perfect stay for our group. We enjoyed the beautiful lake view while sitting by one of the fireplaces at the house. Spent two days skiing at Gunstock which is a short ride from the house. Would live to stay again! The hosts were super easy to communicate with and very helpful.
