Karen and John were amazing hosts! The house was just perfect for our little family and small dog.
We were greeted with fun activity books, sidewalk chalk and bubbles for my daughter… a bottle of wine, fire wood, fixings for s’mores and even a new toy for my dog!
They were attentive, available when we needed them and so very kind to me and my family.
The kayaks and water toys kept my daughter entertained for hours. We were able to bring our boat and had our own dock space for the entire time we were there.
Everything about our stay at this property was perfect.
Thank you Karen and John for your hospitality and making us feel so welcome. Our vacation was just as we hoped it would be!
We hope to see you again next year.

We fell in love with the location and view when we visited the cottage two summers ago. The second time did not disappoint. In addition to all that the lake has to offer, the beautiful White Mountains are less than an hour away. And the hosts are wonderful!

The location of this home is perfect. Views from the deck and the master bedroom are amazing. The beach is large and gradual and would be great for kids. The owners are on site and the best - they offered help with anything we might have needed. The home is perfect for a couple or a couple and 2 children. 2 AC units and numerous ceiling fans were so nice to have. We hope to stay again next year. Highly recommend!

The cabin was cute and clean. It fit what we needed perfectly as we were there for a sporting event and to explore the area. Unfortunately the weather didnt cooperate withbus to be able to use the amenities provided (it was cold and rainy while we visited).

We had a wonderful time staying at the cottage. It is just the right size for 2-4 people. It has a great location and water access. Very quiet area. The hosts were very nice. We will definitely be staying there again. The Allens

Great location. Near everything. Karen and John are great hosts and very responsive when needed (not often). House was clean with everything you may need. Groceries, ice cream, takeout are all within 2 miles. Short trip trip to Laconia and Meredith. Loved being on the "no wake" area of the lake since we have a small boat and we could keep it at the dock without worrying about it banging into the dock. Great for fishing. My husband caught several small mouth - biggest was 3.11 not far from the house. Will definitely be back. Thanks Karen and John

My wife and I recently returned from a 6 night stay at the property. Our visit exceeded our expectations. The cottage and grounds were exceptionally clean. The cottage had everything we need for a great stay ! The on-site boat launch with dock and pet friendly property were definitely a deciding factor when we booked our trip. Thanks to Karen and John for sharing their beautiful property. Looking forward to staying next year !!

This beautiful cottage is cozy, clean, and close to so many fun activities. The only downside was having to leave! We can't wait to be back!
5.0 / 5.0
The cottage was small compared to other places we've stayed but had everything we needed, so no complaints. We arrived to find little snacks and toys (chalk, water gun, water toy, bubbles) for my 5 year old which she loved. There was also a bottle of wine, pancake mix/syrup and all the smores fixings! The owners were around and very pleasant, the water/driveway/kayaks etc as noted are shared with the owners and nextdoor rental, thankfully ours were lovely, but if you arent into sharing it may not be for you. The area was cute, we took a few neighborhood walks, went to the nearby farm, walked to the country store/ice cream and mostly hung around the water/cottage. Lots of dining and grocery stores nearby. When we visited the water was high so there was no beach, but the water is shallow very far out so we didnt miss it. Would definitely recommend!

My wife and I wanted a nice place on the water for a short mid-summer getaway. After looking at options, we decided to book this cottage on the shore of Lake Winnisquam.
Our hosts, Karen and John, were great from the time we booked until the time we left. They live on the property so they are there whenever you need something, but they are not there policing your every move. They were the best hosts we have encountered in our many years of VRBO renting. The instruction book in the cottage was extremely helpful and covered everything including local restaurants and activities.
The location and the setting of this cottage was exactly what we wanted. It was fully equipped, very clean and the views we so relaxing. This is a classic lakefront cottage that has some updates like a/c and large windows and a slider that overlooks the lake. We had our dog with us and Karen and John had bowls, blankets and a few toys for our four-legged buddy.
We hope to return sometime in the future.

My husband and I absolutely loved the cottage and the location. The owners provided everything we needed (towels, beach towels, doggie towel, dog bowls, etc.). They even left a very tasty bottle of wine, smores, and pancake mix with syrup which was much appreciated. The mattresses are VERY comfortable!
Our only issue was with the neighbors who were renting the property next door. The beach area is shared and they had a very large party of adults with 3 young kids and 3 dogs. We never had privacy outside and we never got to swim or relax outside without feeling like someone was watching us. Without them there it would have been the perfect vacation.

Property owners are kind and accommodating. The cottage is small and cozy. Having the boat ramp and dock in the yard is so convenient. I already booked another long weekend this year!

The cottage was homey and had everything we needed. There was a bottle of wine, ingredients for smores and pancake mix and syrup waiting for us. My favorite activity was watching birds on the lake early in the morning when it was quiet. It was a bit chilly and rainy for our week so we didnt play in the water but there were lots of toys on site. I would definitely stay here again.

It was exactly what we wanted, a simple cozy cottage steps from the water that was dog friendly for a relaxing weekend. We grilled dinners, dog walked, kayaked, drank coffee lakeside on the deck in the mornings and had drinks by the firepit while watching the sunset in the evenings. Our hosts were so welcoming and accommodating. We enjoyed ourselves very much and were grateful for a perfect weather weekend!

Great week in a beautiful location
Everything was easy at this location. Our contact Karen was helpful and got back to us on any questions we had right away. The cabin was neat and clean and trash and recycling could not have been easier to take care of. It was also great because we could easily bring our boat and unload and dock it on location. It was very dog friendly and Karen provided treats for our pup and there was a convenient and easy dog waste barrel nearby. Also, Karen gave our 7 year old son a water disc (so thoughtful) and fixings for s’mores and a bottle of wine for the adults! We can not wait to go back next year!!

Delightful cottage on the lake
Wonderful stay. Cute, cozy cottage right on the lake. I was looking for a comfortable place to enjoy a few days of relaxing, reading, and watching the activity on the lake. The cottage has great spaces for that both outside and inside. Karen was super accommodating, attentive, and available without being intrusive. Highly recommend!

A Beautiful Cottage on A Beautiful Lake
I can't say enough how much we enjoyed our week spent at this property. From sunup to sundown there was always something to do. We would wake up every day and enjoy our coffee to a beautiful view of the lake. The cottage itself was a very comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The beds and furniture were very clean and comfortable. The cottage was setup with folded towels, toilet paper, linens and a lot of things that we have had to bring to other lake houses we have rented in the past. From the second we booked it John and Karen were very quick and friendly in their responses. When we arrived there was a welcome kit that had wine, marshmallow roasting sticks, pancake mix, and maple syrup. There was also a binder listing all the entertainment in the area as well as things that were helpful to know for our stay. We brought a boat with us they even helped us launch and drive over from the boat ramp! There are not enough kind words in the world to describe the hospitality we received from our hosts.
The lake itself was a whole other experience of its own. The sand bar was within sight of the dock so we spent a couple of days hanging out on it. The fishing was as also great! Every time my wife and I went out for an hour or 2 we never caught less than 3-4 fish a piece. Our pup also enjoyed her stay as well! Even on a couple of the days it rained there was always things to do in town or hanging in the house playing board games and watching cable. The entire week was amazing and it is a place that we would not hesitate to stay again! Thanks for a great week.
