Great Fall vacation

The lake in the fall was spectacular! The place is perfect for the lake- definitely a cottage that makes time slow down, which is perfect for Squam. Great location and quiet. Juliette was a great host.

We had an amazing time at the cottage. Tristen, the care taker was wonderful and easy to contact. He greeted us and made sure we had everything we needed. We can't wait to go back next year.

Stunning Squam home

Old Squam charm is written all over this property. One of the best locations bar none on the lake. Wonderful host and caretaker are there to direct you to all the aspects of the lake and region. We have been coming to the lake for thirty years and this was a very enjoyable family vacation. Highly recommended.

Beautiful surroundings

True Squam lake cottage with great kayaking...close to shopping and activities in Meredith and Center Harbor. Attentive host. Only drawback was the amount of mosquitos this time of year...made it difficult to he outside for long periods of time, but out on the lake no bugs!!

Lovely spot on lake, terrific property with everything needed already there.

Couldn’t have asked for better. Thank you for sharing your house with us. Only issue was the VRBO listing had the WRONG ADDRESS… so we had lots of trouble finding the correct house.

A True Vintage Squam Beauty

Our stay at West Acres was heavenly. The location was one of the most serene and beautiful on the entire lake. Dock was easy to access. The house was classic, comfortable and provided all that our family of 5 adults and our puppies needed. Very private. Great fireplace and enclosed lakefront porch. Juliette communicated promptly and was very personable. Would definitely recommend.

This lake side house comes with an amazing family history. You feel welcomed from the moment you turn on the road. The lake view, sitting area, and dock are wonderful. And the large glass porch which looks out to the lake is the best! Wonderful walking areas right from the house. Very quiet there. Being dog friendly made my stay perfect! I met one of the original family who grew up in that house... AMAZING! The host and caretaker were always available if needed and I was greeted with a vase of flowers when I arrived. I'd always dreamed of staying with my dog in a house like this on a new england lake!

Loved this special property on the shores of Squam. The peace and quiet were one of a kind. My husband (76 years old) says it’s the most peaceful place he’s ever experienced in his long life. Quite a tribute. The house is perfect in a “golden pond” turn of the century kind of way. We had everything we needed to be comfortable. Our 20 ft pontoon docked perfectly on the dock. Juliette and Tristan were attentive and responsive. Perfect !! We will come again.

West Acres

This is an iconic house that is part of a family camp that is integral to the history of Lake Squam, and when you stay in this house you feel a part of that history. The location and views are magnificent, and provide the perfect sense of a New Hampshire lake vacation, including the sounds of loons in the evening that carry across the quiet lake. The large wood burning fireplace was comforting as the weather was unseasonably cold for a few nights. It was particularly nice to be able to enjoy a vacation with our Labrador Retriever who loved roaming the yard, enjoying the vast views of the lake from the dock, and meeting the caretaker’s friendly dog. Thank you Juliette and Tristan for a wonderful stay.

Wonderful Vacation!

Squam Lake is so beautiful, with the clearest water & spectacular views. We loved having the kayaks, and we also rented two paddleboards for the week. If you are looking for modern & updated, this is not the place for you. But if you love vintage, retro, a piece of history, a step back in time, feeling like you are at summer camp (in the best possible way), then you will love this lake cottage. Open all the windows, to enjoy the views & fresh air! The fireplace is so cozy. Lots of wildlife to see- bald eagles, loons, black bears, lots of birds, turtles. We loved the calls of the loons! Gusto Italian Cafe is so delicious, just 4 miles away. Thank you Tristan, for the new Berkey water filter, it was awesome. Juliette was very accommodating & easy to communicate with. A spectacular setting to celebrate our daughter's graduation from Dartmouth College. Thank you for sharing your special place.

The Perfect Squam Getaway

This house blew our expectations. The property is gorgeous, the views are stunning, and the house is beautifully rustic while still offering all of the amenities that you need. Juliette was a pleasure to communicate with and was always available for questions. The house was clean, spacious, and packed full of amazing lake views. The private dock is in direct sunlight all day which is great for sunbathing and swimming (the water was SO clear!). Anyone looking for a peaceful New England getaway should look no further! We are so thankful to have found it!

Wonderful retreat on Squam

West Acres was a perfect getaway! The location on Squam is unmatched with beautiful views, great access to local trails and scenic hikes like Red Hill, and privacy. The house was well with plenty of books and games to enjoy indoors, kayaks with paddles and life jackets for the lake, and kitchen supplies and tools to prepare meals for our group. Juliette and the property’s caretaker were very attentive and helpful with thorough guidelines and so nice to check in mid-week to offer suggestions and see Howe everything was going. We look forward to booking again!

Classic family lake vacation spot

The house was exactly as represented on VRBO. Location was stunning. House was reminiscent of the lake home we had when I was a teenager. It had everything you’d ever need including two things I didn’t expect a rental property to have: a charcoal chimney for the Weber grill, and a salad spinner. Every time someone in the kitchen was looking for a utensil and asked if there was one, I just told them to open drawers until they found it. And they always found it! The only thing not found was an egg slicer, and then we laughed at the fact that no one else we know even uses such a thing anymore!🤣🤣. It was a fantastic week at a place that took us away from the world for 7 days. It was exactly what we wanted. Perfect.
