Fantastic property. Even if it didn't have one of the best views in NH, it would have been perfect for the 8 of us. Clean, well maintained and all you need for a relaxing vacation. Great central location for all the lake has to offer

Sean’s home met all our expectations.
We choose rentals for the view and it was marvelous. The house is well maintained, clean, spacious and an abundance of windows made for a bright interior. The beds are comfortable and there’s a first floor bedroom if stairs are a challenge. (altho there are stairs to enter from the driveway). Sean is personable, greeted us on arrival and even helped us carry items. The kitchen is spacious enough for several people to work at once. Most of the week was hot, so we were grateful for the AC, quality shades, ceiling and portable fans. When it cooled, we opened windows and got a refreshing breeze off the ridge. There’s outside seating for both taller & shorter folks and the glass panels create a feeling of open air. With balconies on opposite sides, we could sit outside in sun or shade. The back faces east so it was nice to enjoy the view in shade on hot afternoons and sit out front in the morning. We chose to stay close and enjoy the view with family and friends but we’re familiar with the area and many summer activities nearby. We’ve previously enjoyed: Pine Mountain, Lock Hill, Belknap Mountain (all good views for little effort and less crowded than Mount Major). Ellacoya State park has great swimming, the scenic chairlift & mountain coaster at Gunstock are fun and there’s a zip line for the brave. We’re glad we chose this home and would like to stay again.

Sean was great to deal with from beginning to end. Provided great detail in a quick and concise manner. Property is 5 minutes to Gunstock and the views alone are worth the stay. We’ll be back for sure.

We had a lovely stay the house with a view of the lake. The house was clean, which is very important to me. It has a pool table and my kids (ages 20 & 22) loved that. There were plenty of restaurants nearby and we skied at Gunstock which was nice and close. We made our own breakfast/coffee every morning. There’s a Keurig and a regular coffee maker.
The weather wasn’t great, but we made the best of it. We went skiing a little later one day, night skiing one night and went to fun spot for games one day.
It was a nice family getaway.
Sean was a great host.

Very clean and as advertised, the weather didn't cooperate but I can imagine the views are stellar from the little we saw. Great proximity to Gunstock and the pool table was a fun touch. Thanks Sean!

My family stayed two nights for a wedding at Gunstock Mountain Resort. We selected this home due to beautiful lake views, view of Gunstock Mountain, billiard table, and convenience of five minute distance from resort. We were very happy with our stay. Home was clean and views of lake were amazing as advertised. Sean was kind and replied quickly to inquiries and made sure home lights were on since we were arriving late on Friday. Highly recommend this home for anyone interested in vacationing at any time of year due to cleanliness, proximity to resort and the lake and available gas fire pit and billiard table for family fun.

This house met and exceeded our expectations!
As most others have noted, Sean is a gracious host and the views are absolutely spectacular. In addition, the house is ideally located. There are nearby beaches, hiking trails, several mini golf courses, a movie theatre for rainy days, an outlet center and good local restaurants.
I would definitely recommend renting this house!

The house exceeded our expectations. You get amazing sunrises in the morning coming over the lake and great sunsets behind Gunstock. Sean is a great host, came over to make sure we were all set and gave us a tour of the house. Perfect location to the mountain, and a stunning view of the lake. Looking forward to coming back soon.

From the get-go the host, Sean, is super responsive and helpful. He was excited to share his love of the community and gave us great ideas of fun things to do that really enriched our visit to the Lake Winnipesaukee area.
The house itself is situated in a quiet neighborhood on a small mountain that overlooks the Lake. With balconies on the front and back, you can enjoy the views everywhere. It's a great place to just have a cup of coffee or glass of wine and watch the activities on the lake below. Very peaceful surroundings.
The house is well appointed with comfy furniture, quality appliances, gas fire pit and grill, and even a pool table! The host's pride of ownership is evident in the cleanliness and care taken of the property.
Situated near Gunstock Ski area, you have access to skiing in the winter and a fun rec area in the summer. A short drive down the hill gives you access to restaurants and shopping.
The only problem we had was that we hated leaving a truly wonderful place.

We've stayed in a lot of rentals over the last few years. This house was the cleanest one. It's well organized, equipped and set up. The view of the sunrise is amazing!

The best thing about this house is the incredible, panoramic view of the lake and mountains from the beautiful deck, but really everything about the house is great! It was perfectly clean, uncluttered, spacious and well stocked with everything we needed. The furniture was all super comfortable and in great condition.
There was plenty of seating on the deck, where we started and ended every day enjoying the views and the peace and quiet. The house is at the top of a hill in a quiet residential area. It’s away from the busy, touristy areas but easy enough to get to the lake, shopping, etc within 10-15 minutes. It’s the perfect home base for doing activities in the area and then coming back to relax and unwind with the most amazing view I’ve ever seen from a house!!!
The owner was very friendly and helpful. He showed us all around the house upon arrival and offered suggestions for things to do in the area.
5.0
The house is beautiful, has everything you need and then some. The view is breathtaking. The pictures don’t do it justice. Could sit on that deck all day and just stare out at Lake Winni. The home is a short drive to everything- beaches, restaurants, shops, grocery stores. Sean, the owner is awesome. Reached out and answered all our questions prior to our arrival. Also very quick to respond to questions while we were there. We cannot wait to book again. Wish we were still there!

An Instant Favorite
We stayed here during the 4th of July week and it was great right from the start. Sean met us as soon as we arrived and gave us a tour of the place. First impressions told me that he is good people. We had a couple of minor hiccups during our stay but Sean was easy to get a hold of and he took care of things promptly.
The home itself was in immaculate condition. The view of the lake definitely has that Wow factor even on the lone rainy day that we had. A great location for privacy but close enough to go out and have some day trip fun. Restaurants, beaches, stores and Gunstock Mountain were all a short drive away.
I could go on and on but I would just be repeating all of the great things other reviews have mentioned about Sean and the home. Just know that they are 100% true. Do yourself a favor and rent this place. I don't think you will be disappointed.
