This property exceeded expectations. It was in immaculate condition, very modern (yet rustic) design, and well stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Had the maximum number of 8, and still very comfortable and plenty of space! Thanks for a great experience!

A very clean well equipped home with plenty of room, a wonderful back deck to enjoy the peace and quiet. There are some stairs to the bedrooms. Not a problem for us. Plenty of games and entertainment for everyone. The location is close to Laconia, Meredith, and Lake Winnipesaukee. The host was very easy to reach for check in and check out. Thanks for a nice stay.

The trip was for a wedding at Gunstock lodge. We were minutes away. We had family staying right on the lake at Weirs Beach. I was a little jealous for their lake views. However your house was very beautiful, and comfortable. Appre iated the little things like stocked coffee. Your place was very HGTV stylish. Family appreciate it, and proximity to Gunstock.

It was the perfect place for our extended family to stay. The house is spacious (on 3 levels) and has an amazing deck and backyard. We enjoyed being on the deck during the day and at night. The fire pit was a big hit. We had everything we needed and extras too!
