Great location and the house was lovely. Our kids (age 5 and 9) loved the house and we loved the little extra touches. The lake is a short walk down the hill and the kids loved the water trampolines. The pool was at the other end and the kids loved that as well. And the location is close to many other attractions we were interested in, including Weirs Beach. The house itself was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend!

This townhouse at the Samoset was perfect for our family vacation! It was spotless and well stocked. We had everything we needed and more! A lot of nice touches like games for the kids, beach wagon, chairs, umbrella, towels. The views from the property were gorgeous, the pools were awesome, we loved the fire pit and the beach (while small) was great for our kids - they loved the water trampoline and sand toys. We hope to return next summer!

Nice stay!

We are frequent visitors to the lake and and have been at many properties at Samoset. The layout in this unit is nice, with a more open feel and some separation from downstairs bedrooms and areas to hang without disturbing kids after bedtime. Owners were patient and kind when we missed a communication on the way in and had to circle back when we forgot something on way out. Great spot, great people!

the property was as advertised. The pictures on line do not do the grounds justice. The condo community was very quiet and civilized. Pool and swimming to the raft were great!

Cozy, clean home

We very much enjoyed our week at this Samoset townhouse. We found the place very clean and well equipped. Plenty of towels which I appreciated. We particularly enjoyed the deck and screen porch. Screen porch can be accessed from inside bedrooms or outside. The complex has a very nice pool and access to the lake. It worked out well for a our family reunion. The description is accurate and the place is clearly well cared for. We hope to rent again. Thank you Bob & Lori.

This is such a great place. I highly recommend. This is our second visit and we enjoyed both this unit and the Samoset resort overall. Bob & Lori are excellent hosts. Their place is homey and well appointed for a family stay. One thing to note is a good amount of stairs required and the loft beds are accessed by a ladder.

We spent a super week at Bob and Lori's home. It was so comfortable and well-equipped. We were able to relax and thoroughly enjoy ourselves. Met so many friendly people at the pool. Our granddaughter had fun with lots of playmates. We would really consider renting again. Fun, fun, fun! Thank you Bob and Lori for such a beautiful place! Maria and Bill

On point as usual

We came back for a reason. Place is always clean, and comfortable. We know the area so well it’s in a great spot for us. Hope we did you well as guests. Do you have regulars that stay the week before? Last week of July would really be perfect for us moving forward, but if you do I’d understand. Thank you again. The Manzi’s

Perfect relaxing getaway!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Bob and Lori's condo. Bob and Lori were helpful and responsive, and the condo itself was clean, bright, homey, and had anything one could need, including provided linens and towels. The layout worked well for our family, and the location was super. We liked being in the middle of the Samoset complex and having the privacy of the lawn and woods behind the deck and screened porch. Samoset is the perfect vacation spot for those seeking relaxation, providing great amenities in a friendly, yet quiet, environment. Our family spent many hours at the pool and the beach cooling off and taking in the gorgeous views. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bob and Lori's condo to anyone seeking a comfortable and relaxing getaway.

We had a great time. Proximity to all we wanted was perfect. Would definitely stay again.

Bob and Lori have a very cozy place. Beach was close, pool was even better. We know the area well so location was perfect. We didn’t want for anything. They had everything you could want for. They cover all the necessities. Things of our own we’ve brought in the past we never used. Decor is cozy and feels like a real lake cottage. We would love to stay again next year!

The Most Renter Friendly Stay Ever At Samoset

We have been coming to Samoset, 25 of us, since 2009. We usually rent 4 Condos. this unit was purchased in late 2017. We had rented the unit previously, and were always pleased. When we arrived in July 2018 for our week stay (5) people, we were "blownaway" (a Surfer term) by all of the "extras" that Bob and Lori have provided. It, without a doubt, is the most "customer friendly" and "most hospitable" unit that we have ever rented. Where other owners have been good, and others not so good, the place was excellent and we very much appreciated it. Some of our other 3 rentals were "quite Spartan". Bring your own sheets---Now come on--how do you do this by Airplane into Manchester? Bring your own Beach towels--Same thinking. Our initial thought upon arrival was "they must have been in the Hospitality business". We would definitely return to this lovely, friendly condo. Ray and Linda
