This romantic cottage is on a large granite outcropping in the center of the cove with clear views of the Ossippee Mountains. It is directly on Lake Winnipesaukee, which is 28 miles long and 8 miles wide and contains 365 islands. The cottage looks over to and past Diamond Island, and the largest island on the Lake, Rattlesnake. Very cozy knotty pine interior with 30 foot screened-in porch overlooking Lake. Out the porch door is a 30 X 8 foot dock, with upper deck, for sunbathing, boating, and swimming. The crystal clear water is about 15 to 20 feet deep off the dock, plenty of draft room for you boaters. The sunsets are stunning. Email owner for virtual tour.
The Beach is just down the dirt road, about a 4 minute walk----the water has a beautiful sandy bottom, and there are a few flat-topped boulders further out in the water from which to jump, or on which to sit while in the water.
Location is Perfect! A Swiss Restaurant, The William Tell Inn, is a 5 minute walk. Nearby towns with plenty of interesting shops and dining are within a few minutes drive. The Weirs, Wolfeboro, Meredith, Alton Bay, and Center Harbor are each within a 30-minute boat ride. Twice a day the Mount Washington ship goes by, and its docks for excursion trips are only 15 minutes away. Located near the base of Belknap Mountain, which is only 10 minutes away and offers great apple picking, hiking, and mountain views across the Lake.
The Funspot, which is terrific for a family outing of games and entertainment, is only 20 minutes away towards Meredith. And Meredith is also home to a few fantastic Common Man restaurants, offering both casual and white tablecloth: The Lakehouse Grille, Lago, and the Town Docks. Try the fabulous Canoe Restaurant on the Lake in Center Harbor, too.
A ten minute boat ride straight across from the cottage gets the visitor to the deepest part of the Lake (almost 200 feet) for bass, trout, and salmon fishing. And even though there is so much to enjoy in the area, this cottage is a perfect, peaceful retreat!
Come and enjoy the loons and their special calls, the starry nights, the sound of gently lapping Lake water or more dynamic waves crashing against the granite outcropping, and the wind in the pines.... as you breathe the fresh mountain air! |
