Such a great stay! 8 nights, quiet lake, even on the 4th! Tight knit lake community, great neighbors. Hosts were easy to communicate with if anything popped up. If you are looking for an unplugged weekend or week, this is your place. Close to outdoor destinations, took the chairlift up mount Sunapee, went to river gorge and many nice hikes close by!

Wonderful get away! The cottage is exactly as pictured and had anything you may need. Sitting out on the back deck was magical, very quiet with just sounds of the wild life. Kayaking, fishing and enjoying the weather. From booking to leaving, communication was great. Hope to come back again soon!!

This cute and roomy cabin was so inviting and had everything needed for a great stay. We enjoyed the back deck that led right to the water. It was pet friendly as well. We would definately return. The hosts were also very accommodating and the lake community neighborhood as well. Thank you for sharing your place with us.

The cabin was so much more than we expected. So very cozy, clean and the most impressive view of the lake from the living/lounge. It was breathtaking. If i had to contact the owner, she would respond immediately. It was the most wonderful experience I've had. Cannot wait to go back!!

Perfect Springtime getaway!

This was the perfect spot for a little Spring time getaway before the craziness of summer. Peaceful water view, lovely walks along the lake with many friendly fellow walkers and residents. Definitely on my list to return as it's an easy 1 hour drive for me. A friend joined my on day 3 & 4, she loved it too.

Relaxing and fun trip with our family and dog!

The pictures didn’t do this place justice, we were pleasantly surprised the house was bigger than we thought and so adorable. There were boats to use and everything we needed including lots of comfy places for a nap! The lake was warm and so clear. We had such a wonderful vacation, would highly recommend!!!

Great weekend trip!

This cottage is adorable, well-stocked, clean, and in a gorgeous setting. The hosts were communicative and also laid back and supportive. This was the perfect spot for a friend get-together and would also be great for families. We stayed in the fall and the foliage was beautiful. The surrounding nature trails were lovely.

Cozy Crescent Cottage was fantastic! Melanie and Glenn were excellent hosts and great to communicate with, always responding super fast! The cottage is adorable with everything you could possibly need. The cottage was very clean, and the people we met up there were super nice.

NH Ski Getaway

We stayed at this beautiful cottage located on a lake for a ski vacation and we loved it. The style of the cottage is adorable and cozy. When we weren't skiing we loved hanging out by the wood burning stove, working on the puzzle, or watching movies as a family in the back room. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Cozy, comfortable stay

This lake house is an ideal relaxing getaway. My family stayed for 5 nights and enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen, beautiful deck, and lake amenities. We had our meals on the deck by sunset, went swimming, floating, canoeing, and built a fire each night as well. Don't miss the adorable local t-shirt shop, and the nearby walking trails, which are lovely, and be sure to hit up Balthazar's Ice Shack for ice cream.

Wonderful stay at a beautiful little cottage!

My husband and I (and our dog) had a great experience at this adorable lake house. The house and property are exactly as listed and the host was very quick to respond to messages and texts when we had questions. Even on the one rainy day of our trip the view of the lake was beautiful and we had fun playing games inside while looking out at the water. We definitely plan to return in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Melanie

Host profile image
We are an active family from Southern NH. For nearly 10 years we have owned and operated a popular community cafe, and so we are no strangers to the service industry. We love to travel, so when the pandemic demanded some changes for us in 2020, we sunk our trust into some carefully selected properties (we currently have three! look at us go!) and began listing them as short term vacation rentals when we aren't enjoying them ourselves. Come visit when we can't!

Why they chose this property

This settled little cottage is nestled in a nature lovers dream land. Its only an hour from MHT airport, but it feels like its 40 or 50 years back in time . The lake frontage can't be beat, there's well over 100 feet of shoreline, mixed with gentle walk-in sand bottom, (great for littles!) And a dock! The quiet community of owners at Crescent Lake is small and kind, and this lake house life is great for families or for those who want to disconnect from the hustle bustle and slow down for mental health's sake. Basically it's ok if you've lost your marbles, because the floors are too crooked to play them here anyhow! It's just what the Dr ordered!!

What makes this property unique

Theres a brook to one side of the property, and some easy sunny rocking chairs on the front porch to listen to the babble and the birds. Inside, the calming benefits of an old fashioned NH cottage (let the front screen door slam!) meet modern amenities like smart tvs, chargers, and fast wifi. We LOVE it here and hope you will too.
