My family and I had a wonderful vacation at this very spacious and super comfortable house on a quiet cove on Squam Lake. Each year the owners make some nice upgrades to the house, and this year was no exception. We love the fact the house is so roomy and cozy, and we always let out a big sigh when we walk into the house and see the floor to ceiling windows and the amazing view of the lake and mountains in the distance. Tennis, swimming, fishing, kayaking, it's all here. Even in early June, we swam each day and reveled in the fresh pristine water. The dock is very spacious and allowed for 10 of us to spread out and relax very comfortably. Over this winter, they put in a great Floating Island Dock about 40 feet offshore, which made for a great place to hangout, take in the sun, and for the kids to play 'king of the hill'. I went kayaking early each morning and caught plenty of small mouth bass to start my day - just awesome. Great sunsets each night over the lake and mountains, made for some amazing dinners out on the dock & back deck. I highly recommend Camp Kasumpy to anyone.

Stayed at Camp Kusumpy with a group of women friends and had the best time. Very secluded, yet convenient for shopping. We all loved the loons and paddling around the cove in the kayaks. The house is casual and very comfortable and the deck is a beautiful place to sit and have dinner. We met the owner when we arrived and she was very gracious and welcoming. I would recommend this place for a wonderful vacation.

I guess the best way to summarize how we felt about Camp Kasumpy is to say we asked the owners if we could possibly buy it! Well, they are far too much in love with it to ever part from it, and we know why. It is simply special. Waking up in the morning to the glass-like lake, the fresh air...playing in the lake all day, running every day, twice a day on the blanket of soft bed of pine needles lining the country roads, beneath the shade of tall evergreens, the sounds of the loons cry and they play hide and seek in the lake, my children laughing as they jump off the dock into the fresh lake water, kayak, water-ski, float on the tubes...then topping it off with a glass of wine on the deck and watching the most magnificent sunset. The pictures do not lie. The house is beautiful and made me remember my wonder years as my kids experienced theirs. The owners were beyond gracious, we had use of the tubes, kayaks, and they provided us with so many amenities - even a couple of decadent chocolate bars. If we needed anything they responded by email immediately and went above and beyond. We felt like we were staying in the home of personal friends and I believe we were. We will definitely return and my kids said it best, "Mom, that was the awesomest vacation EVER!" I agree Charlie! Thanks for letting us experience this special special place.

This was our 10th season renting a house (new house every year). We meet yearly with our family of 12 (ages 6-73), plus multiple dogs. This by far exceeded all of our expectations. From the built in Chess table, bumper pool table, more board games than I could even begin to recount, books (kids, adults, local birds, etc.), and ample sleeping places, this house was amazing. Then you have the outdoors; Treehouse, kayaks, tennis court, hammock, dock, swimming, and of course views. We spent many hours at the house reading, swimming, dozing, cooking, eating, chatting, kayaking, and hiking. My sister and her husband absolutely loved the "outdoor" bedroom and enjoyed the daily sunrise immensely. One of my favorite things to do was go kayaking with my 3 boys and explore the little island with blueberries and go around the "big" island. This house is welcoming (loved all the scented hand soaps, plenty of toilet paper, and other personal touches), and inviting. We loved how rustic it is that we didn't have to worry too much about traipsing in some sand and dripping left over droplets of water, nothing a broom couldn't sweep away. We would highly recommend this house to anyone looking for an escape from the hectic life, but also enjoy being close to civilization. We can't wait to come back next year! We are already booked!!

We just returned from another glorious vacation at Camp Kasumpy, on Squam. This is my family's 5th vacation at the house, and it just gets better every year. Its so nice to go to a vacation home where the owners care enough about the quality of their guests stay, that they do nice improvements to the house each year. The property couldn't be nicer and the views are extroadinary. Its such a family friendly, safe area. They even allow dogs, which was really nice, so we could include our Lab, Paco, as part of our vacation. With fantastic swimming, kayaking and fishing right out your front door... what more could you ask for. Caught a nice Small Mouth Bass on my 4th cast off the dock. For some great excercise and adventure, there are a number of fantastic hiking trails all within minutes of the house. Loved the huge (fully stocked) fireplace in the evening... the kids made plenty of Smores. If you're looking for a super-comfortable spacious vacation home, right on the water, with tons of great things to do, in an absolutely gorgeous setting, that includes all of the the comforts of home, this is it. Enjoy

Our family had a great vacation at your home. Our family consisted of my parents from TX, my sister's family of 5 from MA, and my family of 4 from NC. The Lakes Region was recommended to us from a close friend. The location of your home on the cove was absolutely perfect for our gathering with 5 kids under 13y/o. They spent every day fishing, jumping and swimming off the dock and paddling in the cove. The floating dock really added to the useable space on the water. We used the canoes and kayaks every day to explore the lake. We rented a boat which was great for tubing and sunset cruises. We all took the boat down one day to go to the Squam Lake Natural Science Center. We loved driving down the long winding driveway to arrive at your home. Your home's layout was great for our family to fit comfortably. The multiple sitting areas in the main living space allowed us all to be together but also engaged in individual activities. We commented on during the week at how well the kitchen was stocked with dishware utensils, cutlery, cookware, etc. The beds, linens, bedding were all comfortable. We had a rather warm end of our week (upper 80s-90) and that was probably the one criticism of our stay. It was challenging to keep the house cool which was most noticeable at bedtime. Ceiling fans would have been nice. As soon as it cooled down at night we would position the window fans to pull in cooler air. A handful of windows in the home had stripped cranks so I was unable to open or close them. However, we certainly enjoyed the overall feel and camp style to the home. In summary, we had a great vacation with wonderful memories and hopefully plan to return to the Lakes Region next summer. Thank you very much for opening up your home to us.

Waking up to loons in a secluded cove on Squam was a rare treat. My family had a wonderful stay at camp "kusumpy". From reading on the dock to kayaking and fishing we thoroughly enjoyed the gorgeous setting on Squam. There is a great deck for outdoor lunch, and a beach for easy Kayak access. In the evenings we would move indoors and enjoy the bumper pool table. The bunk rooms are great for lots of kids! Highly recommend this spot right on the lake.

Our multigenerational family (ages 7 to 70) had an absolutely wonderful vacation on Squam Lake. The house and the location were just perfect. While rustic, the house was clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed the use of the many kayaks and playing bumper pool in the great room. It was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the company of our family.

We had a really nice stay at this house with our group of 15 (newborn to grandparents). The children's bunk rooms were awesome and my husband and I loved sleeping in the sleeping porch. The house was comfortable and quirky (indoor swing!), there were lots of different gathering areas, and the porch and dock were amazing. The extras, such as kayaks and fluffy towels, were much appreciated. Now that this house has WiFi, we hope to return again as soon as possible.

What an amazing vacation! My family absolutely loved this spacious & comfortable home on Squam Lake. This house has it all... it’s located on a quite cove with breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding mountains. As soon as we got there, we walked up to the lake and took in the views, and let out a sigh and could immediately feel ourselves decompress - just perfect. The house has a huge great room which is highlighted by vaulted ceilings and a very large and impressive stone fireplace. The great room was very comfortable, with plenty of large comfortable couches and chairs, which made for plenty of very cozy moments for my family. There was a fantastic collection of books, magazines, games and puzzles, which my family took full advantage. The room even included a pool table, which made for some competitive matches each day. I would be remiss, if I didn’t mention the fantastic views from the great room, which also included a convenient walk-out to a huge lake front deck that had to be 50 feet long, with plenty of chairs and tables for the family to relax. There was also the perfect Screen Porch, that had very comfy chairs and a great view of the lake. We spent plenty of time each day in the screen porch, soaking up the beautiful natural surroundings. The kitchen was also very spacious, and was updated with a newer Gas Oven/Stove, and offered plenty of room for our family and friends to cook up big meals and socialize. We were also really impressed with the size of each bedroom, each with very comfy beds and plenty of windows to capture the wonderful breeezes. The bathrooms were also large and clean. The house was great, but we all go to a place like this for the outdoor experience, and this house really delivered. There is a huge dock, that was big enough for my entire family and friends to spread out. We did a lot of reading, relaxing, swimming, and dining on the dock. In fact, we enjoyed lunch most days, and had dinner on the dock while taking in absolutely breathtaking sunsets each night. Many fantastic photographs each night. This place is a nature lovers paradise, with Loons, Hawks and Eagles right out in front of the house overlooking the cove each day. We used the kayaks for fishing and exploring - the kids loved it. The water is so clean and so refreshing - swimming was heaven. The area offers outstanding hiking trails, whether you’re looking for a 1 hour trek or more, its all here. Such a speciel place, we can’t wait until next year!

We had a great extended family vacation at this house (15 folks, newborn to 68 years old). The location was incredible - right on the lake with a fabulous dock plus a sandy beach complete with kayaks. The rooms were comfortable (particularly we liked the sleeping porch and the kids bunk beds) and the towels were oversized and plentiful. The house was everything we wanted in a vacation and moreso. We loved the inclusion the tennis courts and the huge laundry room full of extras. We hope to return very soon.

My family had a wonderful vacation at this property. The house has a well stocked kitchen and has many games etc. Squam Lake is a 5+ star lake but the house itself is very rustic and worn and in need of better cleaning and maintenance. It also was very hot upstairs with no air conditioning. Much more like a camping cabin. Lisa was a pleasure to do business with - very responsive with local information. Overall a fair price for the amount of lakefront space offered however will look elsewhere next year.

I was a guest of my sisters, and when I saw the outside of the home, I thought it was more modern and clean inside, looks can be deceiving. The beds are uncomfortable, the home is musty and moldy and the furniture was stained and dirty. I was afraid to cook anything in the kitchen, butcher block countertops that were black from dampness. Had to leave after two days, I got so sick. For the price, I expected a cleaner place, but I will admit, the location is beautiful and I enjoyed sitting on the porch at night.
