The view of the lake/trees/mountains from the living room and the front bedroom of this condo was great. The condo was located in a quiet area, however, the people that visited to/owned the downstairs condo had a dog and it barked quite a bit. Someone visited the third-floor condo above us on one day and we could hear them walking everywhere. Luckily for us, we had the building to ourselves for most of our visit, but again, the people downstairs came every weekend and the one time that someone was in the condo upstairs was noisy. We believe that if someone had been upstairs the whole time we were there, it would not have been a good vacation. We did find the parking a bit strange, as there are five parking spots for the building that we stayed in, but guests/visitors and people from other buildings parked in said spots - hence, parking could be an issue as we witnessed during our stay; as nothing is assigned. In closing, The Laconia/Gilford/Meredith area is a very nice area to visit with many things to see and do.
