Bev, We feel so fortunate to have found your cottage to rent at the last minute. We usually go to our nephew's house for our summer vacation but it was not available and we luckily found your cottage available for the week we wanted. My grandchildren ages 11, 13 and 14 voted that they want to go back to Webster Lake for our annual get away. We had a great time and the cottage had everything we needed. The lake is crystal clear and was warm as toast. Thanks for renting to us. Hope to come back next year.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, pet owners, families with teenagers.

My daughter loved this place so much she did not want to leave. It is cozy and clean and has everything you need, from dishes to cookware and movies to puzzles. Ww enjoyed the beaches on the lake and just sitting on the screened-in porch watching the sun set in the evenings. There was so much to do in the area that we could not get to everything. The owners are easy to deal with and gracious. We definitely plan to rent from them again.Recommended for: Sightseeing, people with disabilities, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
Owner response: Thank you for the nice comment Rochelle, We are glad you both enjoyed your stay.

Hi Beverly, We just got back home today. We had a great time in your cottage. We found some fans and they worked fine pulling the cool night air off the lake. It was our first time in the area and we will be back. I will keep your number for future reference. Thank you for a lovely rental cottage. We left the place in tip top shape and bought and intentionally left two towels that could be used in the cottage for future renters. Let me know if there are any problems preventing the return of my deposit. Thanks again! Dr. JimDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

Hi, Beverly, Just wanted to say thank you very much for a chance to stay at your place. We and our relatives from New Jersey enjoyed everything: charming Webster Lake, amazing hike to Lonesome Lake in Franconia Notch, trip to the "Castle in the clouds", beautiful weather and, of course, your cozy cottage. Our 7-month daughter swam in the lake for the first time in her life and she enjoyed it a lot. We already started to dream about our next visit to Webster Lake. Thank you once more, Mikhail, Anna and little Sarah-Freida.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Hi Beverly, We want to thank you for a great stay. The cottage was like staying at my grandmother's house. It was relaxing, unpretentious, and cozy. It reminded us of a simpler time and that was exactly the kind of vacation experience we wanted our children to have. We swam all day in the serene lake, played board games and read books at night in the screened in porch! It was terrific. My kids enjoyed following a mother loon and her baby around the lake in our boat and were so excited to hear the calls of the loon pair to each other. Thank you so much for everything.
