Bed linens, bath towels, beach towels, and many everyday essentials are provided, allowing guests to arrive, unpack, and begin enjoying their stay.

Outdoor amenities include kayaks, a paddle board, canoe, floats, life vests, gas grill, outdoor dining areas, and storage sheds for lake gear and cushions.

Great for a family ski vacation

Our family had a great stay while enjoying a ski vacation at Mt. Sunapee. House is well equipped, comfortable beds & accommodations, just a few minutes drive to the ski hill. Alicia was great - so accommodating, sent helpful information for non-ski day activities, restaurants, etc. Would stay here again & would highly recommend to others.

Cozy, clean, comfortable.

Great location, just a few minutes from Newbury harbor and Mt Sunapee. Fantastic dock and access to the lake, and includes kayaks, paddleboard, life jackets, and much more. Fit our family of 6 just fine. Will absolutely be going back for future visits to the lake.

Perfectly Quaint Cottage

This place was nothing short of fantastic! It’s small but perfectly appointed and quaint. Alicia has thought of everything and the care she takes truly shows! The location can’t be beat - basically walking distance to Newbury Harbor and the ease of swimming off the dock made it great fun for my 8 year old son. The included water toys made this a truly special time at the lake. We will most definitely be back!

Perfect ski weekend get-away

The house was perfect for our group and our needs. We are 2 adults with 2 teens. The space was set up nicely, clean and very functional. We barely used the kitchen, but it seemed fully-equipped. The TV was big and the couches were comfy. The view is beautiful and we'd consider coming back in the summer. And we hope to be back next winter for skiing.

Peaceful lake setting

There were no surprises when it came to the property, everything was just as Alicia had described. The house was neat and clean and well suited for our family of four (including 2 young children). Accessing the water was easy with the stairs off the dock and it was so nice to be able to keep our boat right there. The neighborhood is very quite, even during the days. Alicia helped to make this vacation easy with her quick responses to any questions we had.

Beautiful home in a beautiful setting

This property is phenomenal. The home is absolutely beautiful and is stocked with all the dish ware, appliances and other amenities that you need. We only needed to bring clothes from home. When we arrived, the house was spotless. The backyard has two outdoor dining areas and lounge chairs - which were great for watching the kids in the water while I got some sun. The lake itself is clean and shallow - perfect for daily swimming. The owner - Alicia - was incredibly nice and helpful. She was also very responsive to any inquiries we had both before and during our stay. This property is well-deserving of 5 stars!

A Dreamy Spot on the Lake

I stayed here with my parents for 5 nights over Labor Day weekend. We experienced a range of weather (cold/cool in the beginning and hot/humid towards the end) and I marveled at how the property owner had thought of everything we'd need to be comfortable. Multiple AC units and fans, but also blankets and central heat - we used all the above! We had such a wonderful stay. The cottage is FULLY STOCKED with just about everything you could need to enjoy some days on the lake. I kept thinking to myself that everything was so thoughtfully provided. (We would have liked some kitchen items such as a paring knife and more bowls but we probably use a kitchen more than most vacationers). Alicia was very easy to reach when we had questions and was also easy to coordinate with when my dad realized he left some clothes in the dresser and needed to return a couple days later! Highly recommend and we'd love to come back some day. Oh how I wish there was a second bathroom here so I could bring my kids and husband (along with my parents) next time!

Great post-Labor Day vacation

My wife and I made a spur of the moment decision to rent the cottage on Shore Drive. We were there Wednesday through Sunday, post-Labor Day. The house was perfect. Small, but spotless and equipped with anything we could have asked for. The house is in a small cove with houses lining the shore. On weekdays (remember, this was after Labor Day), it was very peaceful and idyllic. As one would expect, things got busier once the weekend arrived. Lots of people on decks close at hand--all friendly--and water sports galore. Not so noisy as to be problematic (and everything quieted down at night), but also not a secluded, private space. We will definitely consider renting again, though for us this is likely an "off-season" option; younger, more active people than us would find this a near perfect spot.

Another Great Week

We love staying at this house and enjoying the lake and all the boats. We got such fantastic weather we barely had to leave the dock! Alicia is as good as it gets for a host. Very responsive and thoughtful for anything you need or any question you have. The canoe/kayaks/paddleboards provide hours of fun and there is always fish under the dock to look at with a snorkel. We will be back!

We stayed for an extended weekend and the property was a perfect place to relax and forget about the day to day grind. We fished, hiked, and took the canoe out.

Relaxing Lake home

My wife and I needed a quick weekend away and we found this place as we wanted something on the water, but not too big since it was just the 2 of us. It was so peaceful and tranquil, it was exactly what we were looking for. The home was cozy with the pellet stove and had a wonderful water front patio and dock which we enjoyed thoroughly!

Wonderful Vacation Spot

Alicia was extremely responsive and keeps this home in as good of shape as you could possibly ask. The amenities and the access to the lake are fantastic and unmatched in the area. My family and I had the best vacation. I'm in it for the swimming and boating but if you want to just lay out and enjoy a ridiculous view and read a book this is the spot for that too. Can't wait to return!!!

About the host

Hosted by Alicia Morse

Host profile image
Hello and welcome! I'm a New Hampshire native, local Realtor, and Newbury resident. I enjoy helping guests discover everything the area has to offer, from boating, swimming, hiking, and golf to skiing and snowmobiling in the winter. Whether you're visiting for a vacation, a family event, a school visit, or an extended stay, I'm happy to answer questions and share local recommendations to help you make the most of your time in the Lake Sunapee region.

Why they chose this property

I chose this location because it offers the best of Lake Sunapee living. The property enjoys a peaceful setting on the eastern shore near the southern end of the lake while remaining conveniently located to everything the region has to offer. Mt. Sunapee Resort is less than 10 minutes away, New London is 15 minutes away, and Dartmouth College, Dartmouth Health, and DHMC are approximately 40 minutes away. Whether you're visiting for recreation, family, work, or an extended stay, the location provides easy access without sacrificing the charm and beauty of waterfront living.

What makes this property unique

What makes this property special is its combination of waterfront living and convenient access. The sandy-bottom swimming cove and 75-foot dock make it easy to enjoy swimming, boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding right from the property. Water access is simple, with three steps from the dock into the lake.

Unlike many lakefront properties located on winding or seasonal dirt roads, this home is situated on a paved, town-maintained road with easy year-round access. The location offers a peaceful setting on the eastern shore near the southern end of Lake Sunapee while remaining just minutes from Mt. Sunapee Resort and within easy reach of New London, Dartmouth Health, DHMC, and the Upper Valley.

The combination of waterfront recreation, water and mountain views, first-floor living, and convenient access to the Lake Sunapee region makes this property a comfortable and enjoyable place to stay throughout the year.
