About this property
Cottage on the lake--you can't get any closer!
Welcome to summer fun and relaxation for the entire family on Lake Skatutakee! Our family has been enjoying this "piece of heaven" for years and we hope you will too. Because the cottage literally overhangs the water, the view is amazing as it looks up the entire lake. Whether you are sitting on the dock, the firepit, the deck, or the screened-in porch, you will never be far from the peacefulness and beauty. Kids (and adults too) love swimming to the floating dock, paddleboarding, canoeing, and fishing. There are plenty of spaces to relax, grill some food, enjoy each other, and recharge.
Lake Skatutakee is located in Harrisville, NH which is a historic mill town. There's a cute general store, hiking, and many other lakes in the area. There's a ton of hiking in the Monadnock area Peterborough and Keene are the closest towns/cities with stores, restaurants, brewpubs, etc...Welcome to summer fun and relaxation for the entire family on Lake Skatutakee!
