Had an amazing week-long getaway here with my husband and our dog. The island property is perfectly located with easy access to the dock, which made for a nice week of boating and fishing. It was such a peaceful, relaxing escape, and the home had everything we needed. A highlight was spotting a group of deer right in the backyard during our stay. Greg was incredibly welcoming and accommodating in our communication and went above and beyond to make sure everything was ready for our stay. He was even so thoughtful about other dogs in the area while our pup was with us recovering from leg surgery. We would definitely love to return!

Beautiful vintage lakeside cottage but with all the modern amenities. Very well stocked kitchen, soft bed linens, loads of towels.We swam every day, used the kayaks, best of all was lounging on the porch. We had a perfect relaxed vacation!!

Wife and I wanted a comfortable island experience on Lake Winnipesaukee and this was just the right fit! My wife, our dog and I had a great weekend at this affordable island house. Hosts were responsive throughout the process whenever we had questions. Thanks for a memorable weekend!
