This vacation home was designed with one purpose in mind - to create the ideal setting for memorable family and group vacations. The house is just steps from the shoreline of Squam Lake, and offers views of the lake and mountains from most rooms in the house. The whole family will enjoy the waterfront area, where you will find a 50' long dock with two 12' x 22' floating platforms attached to it, providing room to hang out in the sun for up to 14 people.
We provide you with 5 kayaks and 2 paddleboards free of charge so you can explore the shoreline of this nearly private cove. Outside of the cove you can explore the shoreline of nearby islands and reefs. The dock is long enough to accommodate 2 motor boats if you choose to rent one during your stay.
For those who like games of all sorts, you are in luck! The house has a bumper pool table in the living room and loads of board games, plus backgammon and chess boards. In the side yard you'll find a shaded bocce court, and in the backyard you'll have your own private tennis court with a gentle clay court surface - just like the French Open courts! It also has lines for Pickleball! Something for everyone!
Read the reviews, our past renters paint a better picture of their vacation experience at Camp Kusumpy than we ever could!

10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2019
This is the ideal house for a large family vacation. There were 13 of us, ranging in age from 2 - 77. Each couple had a room and a bathroom nearby. The house has a very large living room/family room area, complete with a bumper pool table, comfortable sofas, and a round table for dining. We took all our evening meals at a large picnic table on the deck overlooking the lake, a marvelous place to sit and watch the sun go down over the mountains, What made the house perfect for all of us was being right on the water. A few steps from the house was a dock with comfortable chairs and an awning. The house is situated on the shore of Nichols Cove, a small sheltered body of water. All of us--young and old--spent many happy hours on that dock, enjoying sunning, swimming as well as kayaking.
We hope to return next year for another family vacation in this idyllic spot.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2016
As a family, we have been spending at least a week on Squam since 1963....The week at Kasumpy was, in many way, the best. The cove on which the property sits is quiet and relaxing, but through the lake access, one sees sail and motor boats plying the waters, with the 2000+ ft. Sandwich range as a classic backdrop.
The amenities leave nothing out (asprin in the medicine cabinet!)...and an excellent supermarket is less than 10 minutes away so shopping is not an issue. From the "great room" with its fireplace and continually used bumper pool table to the large kitchen to the massive deck and huge dock and private float, the property is absolutely ideal for a large family, with enough space "get lost" and read a book.
All-in-all, it allowed our four families to have a quite magical stay on Golden Pond.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2016
This house is a true Squam house - perfect for families. We had three generations staying at the house and tons of extended family visiting for boating, swimming, and dining. The house is great for absorbing crowds. There are millions of toys provided so there's something for people of all ages. The sunset view is breathtaking...hence the name, On Golden Pond.
We certainly hope to return.

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.
