This property is the dream - everything you could want and more. Came here with a group of friends for a reunion weekend and it was perfect!
5.0
This house was incredible decorated and extremely comfortable. The water toys, game room and lake front yard was more then we could have imagined. The host was incredible. Always available. We are already planning a return visit for next year. Made days with our kids and grandkids that we never want to forget.
5.0
This place was a fantastic stay! Plenty of beds for the 10 folks that joined for the weekend. The house was clean and the layout was perfect. Several of us used the kayaks, paddleboards, and aquapad - all maintained well. The only issue we had is the abundance of mosquitos - we couldn't go outside once the sun was down because they covered the doors.

The propert was just as described. Very clean, easy check in, and had more than enough amenities for a long or short stay. We very much enjoyed our two-night getaway.
5.0
We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at the “Lazy Loons Landings“house. The location right on the lake was amazing and we used the provided boats almost everyday. The open concept of the kitchen, dining and family rooms was just what we needed to be together and still accomplish individual and group projects. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. We just recommend reading the welcome binder because the showers can be a little confusing! 😂
We wish we could have taken advantage of the outside amenities more but unfortunately it rained so heavily at the beginning of our stay that the lawn was very muddy the entire week.
The little touches of surprises left by the owners were thoughtful.
Overall we had an amazing time and would recommend this house to others. Two thumbs 👍👍up for this house!
5.0
Very nice house that met all our needs. Very clean and the game room was a big hit! Beds were very comfortable. Pretty spot on the lake but we had 2days of rain so only used the canoe and pedal boat once. We thought we’d be closer to Lake Winne……but it took us about 30 minutes to get there. Stores were also a 20 min drive. Enjoyed Wolfeboro and seeing Meredith.

Fun for the entire family. We truly enjoyed our stay. The house was immaculate! We appreciated the thought that went into every aspect of hosting us. Favorite activities included s’mores at the fire pit each night, the game room, and the kayaks and canoe! There was even the most thoughtful welcome basket imaginable. Thank you very much for everything. Hope to come stay again!

The house was very clean and there was plenty to entertain the adults and kids. We hiked, swam, roasted marshmallows over the fire, used the paddle board, and kayaks. The owners are extremely responsive and communicative.

Overall we were very pleased with our rental. Thank you for the care you have taken to make our stay enjoyable. We offer a few suggestions that would make it even better for next time.
The house is clean and nicely refurbished and decorated. It has many fun activities, both inside and out. Air hockey and pool were favorites indoors. The kayaks and lily pad were favorites outdoors. There were many thoughtful touches to make our stay easier, including bottled water, snacks, and personal care products and paper cups in the bathrooms. We were a little confused with how to operate the a/c and weren't sure if the remote changed all units with one touch or if we needed to go room to room with it and change each one.
The kitchen was nicely appointed with most things needed for cooking and eating. Two things did pose a challenge: The toaster smoked so much we were afraid the detector would go off. We tried to clean out the crumbs, but it didn't help. The manual can opener wouldn't work and actually fell apart as we tried to use it, so we couldn't eat any of the canned goods we brought unless we went out to buy a new one. Although there is a dishwasher in place, a stopper for the kitchen sink and a dish rack would be a nice addition for quick cleanups.
The bedrooms were set up nicely, although the mattresses were not as comfortable as we would like. In a least once case, the mattress had such a dip in the middle, two people would roll into the center. We had to fold up a blanket to put under the sheet to fill the center. The trundle beds were in the smallest rooms making it difficult to get in and out during the night.
Outside there were plenty of seats of different types and we spent the majority of our days outside. The seats nearest the house, however, were constantly wet as there is no cover above to keep rain off and the chairs and their cushions cannot be tipped to drain off as they are chained to the floor. A drying rack and or clothesline would be a great addition for hanging beach towels etc.
Thanks again. We had a great time and would definitely recommend this property.

The property was very clean and there were so many things to entertain the adults and kids on-site! We were also within close proximity to other activities. The owners are extremely responsive throughout the process and we’d be happy to rent the property again.

We had a wonderful experience at this property. I am extremely picky about cleanliness and this met all of my expectations, which is not easy to do. Ha! The house is well stocked with towels, dishes, kitchen appliances (blender, 2 coffee makers, toaster, toaster oven etc.). And, well stocked with fun indoor & outdoor activities. Fun for everyone on a beautiful, clean, spacious property!
The property manager was WONDERFUL! She answered all of our questions in a very timely manner.
The only drawback was that the mattresses on the beds are not very comfortable. If they get new mattresses, this place would be perfect!

This lake house was ideal for our 8 adult and three young children (3 and under). The house allowed for five cars and was immaculate when we arrived. The host provided several kayaks, a canoe, a paddle board and paddle boat and the life jackets that were like new. The game room had a high end pool table, air hockey and foosball tables and other games to while away the evenings. We had a beautifully maintained fenced in lake front backyard for outdoor games and a fire pit. Listening to the Loons was very relaxing.
We would recommend this house for anyone looking for a fun family vacation. The host was very responsive but we really didn't need anything once checked in.

The owners went above and beyond with supplying everything we needed for our stay.

This home is beautiful and spacious for our extended family of ten, ages 9-75. Their dock, available watercraft, and dock make swimming and puttering around the lake fun and accessible for all ages. My daughter, 9, loved the paddle boat and it really got us around. There are lovely common use beaches dotted around this lake and portage to the next lake (if you need to kayak more distance) is easy. These owners have really tried to think of everything and it shows! Several delicious local seafood restaurants nearby when you are tired of cooking as well. The arcade consoles were a delightful touch for our gamers of all ages. :). Air conditioning is very effective so no worries if there is a hot spell. I highly recommend spending your week at the lake here. Don’t forget to bring your s’more fixings for campfires at night!

Amazing family vacation for all ages!
We had a wonderful time at Lazy Loons Landing this summer! We were a large group of 12 with 7 kids ranging in age from 8 to 15 and there was something for everyone. From assorted water sports and games to all the amenities, Wendy thought of everything and we were able to just relax and enjoy our time together! The house decor was even more beautiful in person than it was in the photos and absolutely spotless! We would go back in a heartbeat and encourage everyone to check it out!

This was our first time doing a lake vacation (usually we vacation by the ocean) and it was a lovely introduction! I believe we were the first renters of this recently renovated property (or one of the first) and there were a few kinks to be worked out. The owners were very responsive and helpful, addressing needs and responding where possible. The house is lovely and clean and has (most) everything you need for an enjoyable stay. My guess is that items will be added as they continue to rent.
The highlight of the property is the on-lake location and available boats (kayaks, canoe, peddle boat) which make enjoying the lake an easy and active experience. We were in the water every day that weather allowed and loved how quiet the lake and property were. We rented a paddle board (nearby outfitter) and appreciated that Locke Lake was not overrun with motor boats which could make activities like paddle boarding difficult.
The swim dock makes entry into and out of the water convenient and easy and it is my hope that in the future they can add a little beach as NH permitting allows. They have a lovely space for it!
All in all it’s a great place to stay with accommodations for extra family and friends! We will definitely try to return.
