About this house rental

You can feel the stress leave your body when you arrive at this quintessential New Hampshire paradise. Evergreen forest surrounds you as you enjoy nearly 4-acres of wooded property and over 100 feet of waterfront on beautiful Messer Pond, while only being minutes from the convenience and ambience of New London or Sunapee.

This four-season home is the perfect location for a family get-away. Only 11 miles from Mt Sunapee, you can ski all day and then enjoy the wonderful dining of New London or Sunapee through the evening during the winter. Summer brings new opportunities to swim, kayak and fish on serene Messer Pond.

Warm and welcoming for family gatherings and entertaining, the living room, dining room and kitchen flow together with a vaulted ceiling and lovely views of the property and pond. There is a large deck and beautiful gazebo off the main living space, complete with great outdoor furniture and a gas barbeque for grilling. The kitchen boasts new appliances and all the comforts of home with a kitchen dining area and breakfast bar. The house is outfitted with smart TV's and/or cable throughout. If you must do some work, although we don't recommend it, there is excellent Wi-Fi throughout the house!

There are 3 bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the first floor. The master bedroom is private with a comfy king size bed and large master bath with a soaking tub. The second floor is private and can be closed off with a door. The newly built out second floor has a generously sized 4th bedroom with a king-sized bed, a media room, and a full bathroom.

A bonus loft off the main living area enables you to sleep an extra teenager or two, or you can use the area for arts and crafts for the young kids. We also provide a queen air mattress in case you need to sleep more!

There is a full 2-car garage to park cars in during the cold, snowy nights. We also have plenty of outdoor toys, including kayaks, a canoe, stand-up paddleboards, and tubes for sledding in the winter.

Robs place is great! Very spacious and clean with just about everything you need. Just a very short walk to get to the dock which had a paddle boat and kayaks to use, all in great shape. We personally love messer pond, it’s more like a lake with beautiful views, great fishing, and is quiet and peaceful. Hopefully we’ll be back again soon!

lots of space; enjoyed spending quality time with my grandchildren; I especially liked the use of the garage. As far as suggestions go, kitchen was very well equipped but could use a few more spoons and a ladle. I would certainly consider renting it again Thanks Paul S.

We've stayed here a couple of times. The house has a great layout for the family, is not far from the Mt. Sunapee and the grocery store. Most importantly, the host is responsive and accommodating. We've stayed here two years in a row and are considering making it an annual tradition.

My family stayed in this New London home for a few days over the summer, and we truly could not have asked for a better experience. Not only was the home incredibly clean and spacious, but it had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay. This house is in a wonderful, private location with a dock and water view a few steps away in the backyard. We also enjoyed coffee and breakfast in the gazebo, as our 1 year old ran around. There were beach chairs, life jackets, and everything you could need to enjoy the warm weather. Additionally, the upstairs apartment area and movie room made the perfect spot to relax and put our little one to bed quietly, while we enjoyed some down time. I can’t say enough about how perfect our visit was, and we truly hope to be able to come back again. I can absolutely see some hiking, exploring New London, and visits to Colby-Sawyer in our future.

This home was close to perfect for our trip family of nine, ages 7 to 77. There were enough beds, 3 full bathrooms, and the dining table was large enough to fit us comfortably. It was located in a quiet, private area yet only minutes to the grocery store, restaurants, and nearby attractions. Everyone especially enjoyed the kayaks, canoe, paddle board and even a paddle boat. The property, its amenities and location did not disappoint. We would consider booking again.

A newer well appointed home. Spacious with many nice features. A great winter ski house for a group. Nice in summer too, but Messer Pond access and water frontage is NOT for young kids. Quite swampy and weedy.

Our family enjoyed staying at this house. The 4 bedrooms plus loft and three full baths fit the 6 of us perfectly. The host left a welcome book with activity ideas we enjoyed including a dinner restaurant, a nearby beach, and the local playhouse. The dock has an 11'4" paddleboard, a mini paddleboard, a large kayak, a medium kayak, a ride-atop kayak, and a 2 driver paddleboat, all of which made for good times on the very calm and quiet pond. Note the pond is a short walk down some stairs, across a small street, and down a trail, and only a sliver is visible from the house through summer foliage. Host was accommodating of our dog and the area is dog friendly. As with anywhere near a pond in summer, bring bug spray! We would stay here again.

This house perfectly met our needs. There was a play area for the kids, a large dining table for the whole family, a wonderful kitchen, and plenty of comfy room for the adults. It was spotlessly clean and beautiful. The house and furnishings were in great condition, but not too precious/fragile to be used. The access to the pond and the kayaks and paddle board were fantastic. We felt private and secluded, but it is only a few minutes to shops, restaurants/bakeries, and grocery. The beach at Little Sunapee was wonderful for the kids. Nice hikes were nearby. The owner and management company were very responsive. And there were fireflies!

This home is situated next to Messer Pond in the woods near New London. Easy access to town, restaurants, shops, grocery store and more. Home was very comfortable and clean with ample space for large family. The outdoor screened in gazebo was amazing for a pre dinner drinks and appetizers. And access to kayaks, canoes and paddle board at the pond was a huge hit with the teens in our group. The theater room upstairs was a great way for the teens to have a separate hangout space. We rented a boat at Lake Sunapee and topped off a long day with a family cookout back at the house. Perfect way to spend the holiday weekend - we will be back!

The home was perfect for our family Christmas. A few suggestions: king size sheets for upstairs bedroom. They went with a queen size flat sheet as their only sheet. More kitchen dish towels. More kitchen sponges. More kitchen serveware (only one serving spoon and fork). The property management company was very responsive when we called about the slushy driveway that was quickly turning to sheer ice They came and plowed, sanded and salted, then came back the next day as well.

My husband and I and our son and his wife thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this well appointed and lovely home. The staircase leading to the upstairs "apartment": bedroom and full bath provided perfect privacy for our son and his wife. Relaxing in the gazebo on the back porch was a favorite activity. We especially loved eating breakfast outdoors and listening to the birds.The owner provided several kayaks and a paddle board for exploring Messer Pond which is actually a small lake. The kitchen is modern and great for cooking family meals. We visited in August and were amazed to look up at the night sky and see a spectacular view of the Milky Way and a myriad of stars in the sky! The host was easy to communicate with via VRBO. He also has a property manager which is a bonus. Although we didn't have children with us, a nice feature is the loft space that is open to the living room, dining room, kitchen area - so children could play with the many games provided but within easy hearing of adults. The clothes washer and dryer seem very new and are easy to use. We were totally in love with this home away from home - and would give it a 10 star rating if we could!

Our family enjoyed this relaxing vacation home. Kayaking around Messer Pond was beyond relaxing and we enjoyed ourselves. Kitchen just needs a spatula and a chef knife and I would be all set to cook for my family ❤

The home was tastefully decorated and very comfortable. It was fun to use the outdoor deck and gazebo, and having lake access was great. The location, close to New London and Mount Sunapee is wonderful. Cooking equipment was a bit minimal and kayaks could use a little maintenance.

Came into town for a family wedding, and we really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend this place! It’s even better in person than the pictures. We loved exploring Messer Pond and will definitely book this house again should we find ourselves in the area.

Great modern clean house in an awesome area near Mt. Sunapee

We had a great time! Really liked your house, very roomy and clean with great amenities!! Also an awesome house noise insulation in the area over garage, as we had small kids with us and no issue with the TV noise from the main area. We got to enjoy nice snow as well, very pretty area all around your house and of course Mt. Sunapee near by! Thanks again and we will definitely come back next year. Thanks, Daniel

We had a blast, and the house was clean, spacious and offered a great place for our family to reconnect and have some fun. Quick ride to the Mtn and ski conditions were fantastic especially since the day before it was downpouring. Couldn't have asked for more, thank you again.

Great house, great location

Great house, great location

Great house and great location. Stayed here over February break with 4 adults and 2 kids. About 35 minutes to ragged mountain and 20 to mount Sunapee. House is on a dead end road with absolutely no traffic. Property is less than a 5 minute drive to center of town for grocery shopping, breakfast, shops, and restaurants. Could easily ride a bike there. Plenty of space for everyone and even a separate loft area overlooking the living room that was the perfect area for the kids to play. Main living area (kitchen, living room, dining room) is just one big open area. Large kitchen with what looked like pretty new appliances. Would definitely rent this house again.

My family came up for a funeral on a day of a blizzard. Rob was SUPER easy to work with and quick to respond. He made things very easy for us under difficult circumstances! The home was clean and comfortable, and so quiet! The "plow guy" was very prompt the next morning of the storm so we were able to get out for our flights, would stay again

Wonderful long weekend getaway in New Hampshire

Wonderful long weekend getaway in New Hampshire

We had a a WONDERFUL stay at Rob's house! It was larger than we realized so we had plenty of room to spread out. We had 2 families away for a ski weekend. The house was big and cozy at the same time. Every things was so clean and the beds were very comfy. Our group especially loved the fireplace, the theatre room and the backyard during a snowstorm for sledding! We enjoyed the little thoughtful touches (maple syrup! wine! body wash!) The house is a short trip to Mt. Sunapee where we had a blast skiing! Easy to run out to the grocery store as needed. The hosts were super quick to get back to us on everything and so friendly! We were so lucky to find this rental just a few weeks before our trip and really lucked out. We loved it!
