About this cottage rental
Relax with friends or family in this charming cottage that is perfectly located near mountains for hiking adventures in the spring, water activities at Lake Winnipesaukee in the summer, leaf peeping in the fall, and skiing at Gunstock in the winter. Enjoy a morning coffee by the large front windows that open to a deck with a gas grill. The living room has board games and is equipped with a smart tv for guests to log into their favorite entertainment apps.
THE HOUSE
This cozy home, located in the tranquil Locke Lake community, invites you to relax and unwind from the moment you step through the front door. Spend your days exploring the community's private beaches, then return home to a warm and inviting atmosphere that will make you feel right at home.
Soft neutral colors and minimalist design are used throughout for a calming feel. Whether you're snuggling up with a good book, chatting with friends, or simply enjoying a quiet moment to yourself, the living room with floor to ceiling windows is the perfect place to be. Sink into the soft cushions of the recliner or cuddle up on the couch.
Guests will have access to the whole house and yard. Sit back in an adirondack chair around the natural stone fire pit which is accessible from May to October.
Fireplace is seasonal, please reach out the host for more information.

Nice quiet place to stay, very clean and host gave easy to follow instructions for check in / check out. This was our 2nd time staying in this house for the Nascar race weekend and it is just what we needed.
8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2024
Nice and very clean facility. Owner responds quickly to resolve any problems - toilet not flushing properly and smoke detector battery replacement. Outside needs some work. Deck just about unusable and outside furniture not in good condition. Fireplace marked not for use.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2024
We had a very nice stay. The cabin was clean and the host left easy directions to follow for the wifi and internet. It was great for us as we used mainly as a sleeping place since we spent most of our time at the racetrack watching the Nascar races over the weekend. Would definitely stay here again!!
6 / 10Average·Jul 2024
Upon arrival we were disappointed by the appearance of the exterior. The deck should be replaced and the covers for the furniture had water on them.
The interior was nice and clean for an older house. The access to the beaches was a plus otherwise a pretty good stay.
