Watch the sun rise over the lake as you sip your morning coffee at the handmade knotty pine bar. Delightful year-round cottage on pristine Forest Lake, located in the heart of the Monadonock region, close to the New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Vermont borders.
The rustic knotty pine cottage has all the comforts of home including two TVs, cable, two decks and a huge screened porch overlooking the lake with gorgeous views of the mountains. A full kitchen includes a microwave and gas stove, or if you like select from over 50 restaurants in nearby Keene. Two bedrooms upstairs with one full bed, a bunk bed and two twin beds allow up to six people to sleep comfortably. Downstairs, a comfortable futon and queen-size sleeper sofa accommodate an additional four people. On the screen porch overlooking the lake, enjoy a cookout on the gas grill, curl up with a good book or nap in the hammock as you listen to the birds.
On the quiet dead end street, enjoy a nice afternoon stroll as the kids ride their bikes. Enjoy fishing for bass and trout, swimming in the 110 acre spring-fed lake off the 175 square foot stationary dock, or taking a ride in the paddleboat or canoe. In the fall, the leaves changing colors on the nearby mountains are a spectacular backdrop to the crystal clear water of the lake. Enjoy snowmobiling, skiing, ice fishing and snow shoeing in the winter, leaf peeping, hunting and hiking in the fall. Mount Monadonock is just a short drive away and offers hiking and bike trails. If shopping is more to your liking, Keene is just a short drive and offers the Colony Mill Marketplace with over 50 unique shops and plenty of antique stores and boutiques.

Thank you for your prompt release of deposit. All of us truly enjoyed the stay at the place last week. Everything was as expected and the view of the lake and all the amenities were great and cannot forget very good fishing!!! It was very relaxing week for my family and everyone in my family really enjoyed the place. Additionally, the photo copy of true "catch and release" was quite a kick for us. Thanks!

Pete and I thank you very much for the opportunity to embrace true relaxation at your home! It was just wonderful and so relaxing that we had to remind ourselves that it was okay to just do nothing! Our most enjoyable experience was waking to the fog on the lake in the early hours of the morning with our coffee. What perfect weather we had as well. Thank you again for accomadating our mid week stay and we look forward to planning a full week stay next year. Have a wonderful day and enjoy the rest of your summer.

We really loved it. Just what the doctor ordered! I'm pretty sure out 4 1/2 year old was ready to move in. Thanks for the deposit. We had a great time! The kids loved it and didn't want to go home. What a beautiful place. Awesome. Thank you!

We had a lovely time at "Breezy Pines". Swimming, canoeing, rowing...the fireflies around the bend were amazing! It was nice you had some necessaries like paper napkins, and even a salad spinner. The bathroom was a plus, with the new tub and all.
