About the host
Hosted by Debra McLoud
The property is owned by the McLoud Family of Plymouth, New Hampshire. The land was purchased by our father/grandfather, Merlond McLoud in the 1950's. He owned a construction company and together with his children developed Grapevine Cove. It is a beautiful and peaceful place to enjoy the best of New Hampshire's Lakes Region.

What makes this property unique
In summer, the property has one of the few sandy beaches on the lake and we believe it has the most beautiful view of all! There are two houses on the private road which share the beach and two docks. The houses are rented together in the summer and sleep 15 (including bunkbeds, trundle beds, and a rollaway cot.) You are one cove away from Squam Lakes Association which has boat rentals, boating lessons and regattas that are beautiful to watch from the beach. It is also relaxing to sit and take in the views of mountains and wildlife such as mink, beaver, eagles, herons and loon and listen to their calls. The lake is clean and clear and offers swimming, fishing and boating. Bonfires in the evening are especially magical! The view around the lake at night is very peaceful.
