Beautiful classic older house with a Million dollar view. Robert the owner was a great host going over everything we need to know about staying in his home. The covered porch was great during a passing storm allowing us to stay dry while still being outside. The boathouse was a additional excellent feature where i was able to store my paddle boards & a pontoon boat that we rented for the week while we stayed there. I would highly recommend staying here.

Our extended family of 13 enjoyed a truly excellent week at The Lincoln Cottage. We have rented many VRBO places in the US and Europe and this house is incomparably better equipped than any of them. The owner, Robert, met us upon arrival and gave us a very detailed tour of the house and its many amenities. The views from the expansive front porch are spectacular. And we loved the lake. It would be difficult to have a better VRBO experience on Lake Winnipesaukee.

Very nice, large home. Kitchen is fantastic! Location on the lake is great for fantastic views and the boat house is ideally situated to make docking a boat fairly easy. Owner was incredibly helpful as well and checked in over the two weeks via text to be sure we had everything we needed.

This is a really fascinating and lovely property. Large rooms, comfortable beds and a phenomenal view over the lake from the porch. We were treated to grandstand seats for TWO boat races. We easily cooked for and seated a group of 8 adults for all our meals. And we could have probably handled twice that number in th well equipped kitchen. We had a great week!

Very welcoming owner who met us at the property to give us a tour. We had a girls trip and there was enough space for all of us comfortably. The entire 3rd floor was equipped with a pool table, games, bar set, bed and bathroom which was perfect for those who like to stay up late. The chefs kitchen was gorgeous and was the center of activities. The deck was also to die for. A must stay!

We have a large extended family who all traveled up for our daughter’s wedding. This place provided an excellent spot to see and enjoy the lake. The history of the home and the beautiful restoration had us all in awe. Even in the ran, we enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the storm. Thank you for letting us stay!
