Our 2nd time staying and even though the weather did not cooperate, we had a great time. 18 adults and 5 littles staying in both houses - very comfortable.

We had a great stay. The house was beautiful and cozy at the same time. Our 4-year-old had a blast playing chess with the jumbo chess board. Check in was easy and Michele was super responsive. Thanks for a great time for our family!

The Tahoe was the perfect place for our 4th of July family and friends gathering. Its great room was the best spot to watch the storms roll in, the sunrise and sunset and just the trees and birds in general.

We had a lovely stay at this home and the sister property with plenty of space for everyone. The home was beautifully built and very clean. Check in and check out we’re very easy, communication with the host was very quick and easy. We ended up adding an additional night at the beginning of our stay without any issue. Nice outdoor space for entertaining. Would love to stay here again!

We spent our Thanksgiving weekend at this beautiful house. The layout is great, with bedrooms and bathrooms on every floor. The fireplace is very large and clean. The kitchen is equipped with most of the basics one needs.

My sister’s wedding party spent the weekend at this house and then hosted the wedding in the backyard. My family also rented the house next door from the same owner. The house was perfect- it has a rustic, upscale cabin vibe. The whole property is beautiful. There was lots of space for everyone to sleep and many places to gather inside and outside. A 20x20 tent fit nicely in the yard and there was plenty of parking. The owner was wonderful and flexible- she let us visit the property ahead of time and check in early so we could receive the tent delivery. She was also very responsive to messages. Google maps directed us a little bit too far down the road so I would rely on the owner’s directions and look at the house numbers once you’re on 103a. We had a wonderful time and can’t wait to return!

We rented both of Michelle‘s houses for our annual family get together. It’s a group of 17 ages 81 to 2 years old. The houses were both beautiful well stocked clean and spacious. Everyone had a room to themselves and the outside area was wonderful. Both houses have unique outside fire pits and the hot tub was the bonus. We will definitely return.

This is a really great house that can host friends in many areas. It was nice the kids could play and parents could enjoy time in the living. Having a fire outback was enjoyable in a chilly night.
We have stayed before and will stay again.

This property was perfect while visiting our son at Colby. Close enough, but very private in the woods. Plenty of space for us to spread out, and the owners are super easy to work with, and very kind. We had a great time! Highly recommend.

Enjoyed our time at the Tahoe house. Lake Sunapee state park was very close and easy to get to. The pictures need to be updated, though, on the VRBO site. There is no longer a day bed on the 3rd floor. There were little bugs in the bathroom, but I think it was humid when we got there, which attracted them. Hot Tub is a plus. Overall great stay.

Everything Was Perfect!
Calling this experience magnificent is an understatement. The property is vast and provides a very calming atmosphere. The interior is impressive at every level and the house is stocked with everything you need (spices, extra batteries, even a crock pot). The property owners were always friendly, helpful, and extremely responsive.

A great place to gather!
We had a lovely weekend at this gorgeous house in celebration of my sister getting married! Seven of us stayed comfortably in this house, with plenty of room both inside and out. Michele gave us permission to have a small wedding shower for her on the Saturday of our stay and it went really wonderfully. The patio outside is so picturesque, with both a fire place and a fire pit! Huge wrap around deck with lots of seating. Great location for stargazing. Easy drive from the Boston area. We could not have found a better place! Hope to visit again! Thank you!!!

Great rental space!
We rented the house next door from this owner as well - great experience!! Perfect for the groups we needed to accommodate and being so close was great for meals and social time - this house is wonderfully laid out - you want privacy? You can have it. You want to socialize and hang out? There is great space for doing that! Really enjoyed our stay and will absolutely be renting one, if not both, of these homes again - thank you!

BEAUTIFUL Place!
We were here for our son's wedding. The bride, groom, both sets of parents and various siblings stayed on different nights (so many different sleeping arrangements available!). We ALL wished we had more time to enjoy everything this home has to offer. We didn't even notice the amazing knee-high outdoor chess set between the two houses until we were packing up to leave. Lots of great books on the shelves. Indoor and outdoor fireplaces. The hot tub (which we tried and failed to make time for).
Our biggest problem was locating the driveway. Passed it multiple times until we finally noticed the orange cones. It was probably in the check-in instructions, and we missed it? Don't care. LOVE this place.

Perfect location
We have family in the area and the house was minutes away. It’s very close to Mt. Sunapee as well so it’s a great ski vacation rental as well.

Fantastic spot!
Wow, what a place! Beautiful wooden interior and very spacious. We had 9 adults and everyone had a place to sleep. The backyard patio was a great place to hang at night and relax by the fire pit. The place is much bigger than the pictures show. Short drive to the lake. Would definitely stay here again

Fall Weekend
We rented this house for a Fall weekend and it was fantastic. Really nice outdoor and indoor fireplaces with plenty of wood and lots of indoor communal space for when the temperature started to drop. Michele was very responsive to questions prior to the weekend!

We had such a wonderful time at this property. The home was very clean, and had amazing indoor and outdoor space for a group of 8 adults. We really loved the fire pit and the living room for game nights. Would definitely book again!!

Great weekend getaway
We had a lovely weekend away. The kids enjoyed exploring the woods and building a fairy garden and we all loved having fires in the fire pit and the inside fireplace. We hope to come back again!

Awesome weekend rental
The Tahoe is everything we could have wanted for a weekend getaway with friends. Large, clean and comfortable, it has plenty of space to relax both inside and out. Michelle is super friendly and courteous, and even supplied us with extra firewood. Will definitely be looking up this listing next time I plan to be in the area.

Peaceful Retreat!
Great location for relaxing family get away - spacious open floor plan, beautiful front deck and back stone patio with fire pit. Sunshine out back in mornings and deck in afternoons. Clean, well taken care of property. Sunapee and surrounding areas fun to explore! Host was most helpful and accomodating!

Great Family Stay
We had two families with three total kids 4 or under. House offered plenty of space for the kids to run around, and the proximity to the lake and other activities (hiking, blueberry picking, beaches, breweries) was excellent - everything is within 20 minutes. Great setup for two families, even with our kids being a little too young for the bunk room. Plenty of outdoor space for sitting around the fire or on the deck, so it was a perfect place for a week in the summer.
Owners were super responsive and helpful with questions since we traveled in July 2020. We looked around a ton for a house that was big enough for two families, nice enough, and had plenty of outdoor/deck space near a lake - and we were very happy with this house!

Family wedding and foliage in Newbury
The home was exactly as advertised on the site, actually better! The home's spacious layout, comfortable sitting areas, amazing outdoor space gave our family of 10 a perfect getaway! The owner's recommendation of a tackle shop helped my son-in-law catch his first brook trout ever in a NH river! He was thrilled.
The children ran through the woods like little deer and loved the out door space.
We grilled, roasted marshmallows and sipped warm spiced cider by the outdoor fireplace.
I would highly recommend this property and would definitely return for a repeat visit!

Great Place, Bungled Check-in
How wonderful things were... once we were inside..... But on a dark NH evening when the one number we have is not working (owner overseas, but could have been dead in a ditch as far as we knew) such that we did not get in until after 11pm after traveling all day from Florida, it was a frustrating start to the weekend. …Only 45 minutes on the phone waiting for VRBO customer service to cough up a property manager number which should have been provided from the start… and no real apology from the owner (small compensation would have been nice but not necessary), I can’t in good judgement give this more than 3 stars. In the future, we will ask owners to provide backup numbers.
