A step back in time staying at “camp” on the big lake - just as we did in the early 60’s. We hiked all day, watched sunsets in the evening, ate dinner then fell into bed, exhausted from our activities!

We had a great stay at the Sleeper Camp. When we arrived - everything was as described, and Harry provided a detailed email up-front with directions and instructions. The camp is in a great location, while also secluded. We enjoyed nights by the wood stove playing Yahtzee and enjoying the view. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!

Had a wonderful fall visit at the Sleeper camp. This camp has everything you will need. A jem of a location - a really special spot to share with family. The owner and property manager are very responsive.

I was looking for a classic lake camp and this was it! Everything was perfect from the views to the kitchenware. My 90 year old parents were able to stay on the first floor which includes a delightful screened in porch. Even inside the camp the views of the lake were incredible. Do not miss the Wright WWII museum in Wolfeboro and a tour of the lake on the M/S Mt Washington! We will be back.

Nice camp, great views from screened in porch! Restaurants nearby if you don't want to cook but everything at the camp, pots, pans, plates, utensils, and over 20 spices in spice rack to cook your own meals. Gas grill had full charge and worked great on steaks and salmon. Canoeing was great with a rowboat also available. Property manager came by a few times to check on us to see if we needed anything and was easy to reach by phone to answer any questions. We were here two weeks and there is no washer/dryer but laundry mat just 10 minutes up the road. Was a very relaxing experience and would definitely come here again for vacation.
