Booking guest must present matching valid photo state issued identification at time of check in. All vehicle information, make, model, color, license plate and state must be sent prior to booking request being accepted. Parker Lakeside Cottage is a unique stand alone cottage tucked away in the channel on Paugus Bay, walking distance to Weirs Beach and the Naswa Beach Bar! The cottage is the largest unit you can rent in the mostly owner-occupied association and is the end unit! Parker Cottage has been beautifully updated with knotted pine in the completely remodeled bathroom, brand new environmentally friendly floors, fresh interior paint, ship lap back splash in the kitchen and completely redecorated! The master bedroom and living room overlook the lake which is just steps from the cottage. Enjoy your own private section of beach with picnic table, and barbecue. Two assigned parking spaces just steps in front of the cottage. Limit is four adults, maximum. Children are welcome as well.

Guests can bring kayaks, paddleboards or canoe and launch those off to the left of the dock in back of the cottage. Please store under cottage. No boat docks available for renting and guests are not allowed to beach jet sea doos. Many guests have been enjoying daily rental of pontoon boats from local marinas.

We no longer provide bedspreads, pillow shams, pillowcases or sheets. We provide dish towels, hand towels and pillows.

Lake Winnipesaukee

The cottage is in a great location with easy access to a beach that is excellent for children. All of the pier amenities, restaurants and large beach (Weirs Beach) are a short walk. The location provided a great central spot to explore other attractions within a short driving distance. We would stay here again when visiting Lake Winnipesaukee.

Peace

Our stay was quite lovely! The beach was clean as was the cottage. Diane was very accommodating and even bought some spices for us prior to our arrival. The cottage was surprisingly quiet although it’s proximity is close to the drive-in, public beach and restaurants. We will definitely book another stay!

Race weekend

Cabin was nice and clean but needs updating. Bunk beds in one room are really not good for adults. Price was high for what you get.

Stay in Laconia

View of the lake was great. We were there during a heat wave and it was very hard to stay cool with just one a/c - most of our party slept in the living room to try to be near the air conditioner. Access to the beach was challenging as the closest set of stairs were washed out and blocked off for safety reasons. We moved the charcoal grill from the beach to the front of the house due to the stair/access issue and this caused an issue for neighbors apparently.

Charmer on the Channel

My husband and kids (14 & 16) stayed in this cute cottage on the channel from 8/7-8/14. You could tell the owner has spent time making it welcoming and user friendly for guests. It’s “quaint”. If you’re looking for a sprawling property with a gourmet kitchen, this is not the place for you. But if you plan to spend most of your visit outside and want to be centrally located, and literally ON THE LAKE, this place is perfect. Kitchen is small (2 burner stove, microwave, no oven), but was nicely appointed, and had a full sized dining table. Main living area was spacious and comfortable with a large window with a great view (and an A/C unit which proved useful the last couple of days). Bathroom is tiny, but in very good condition (great water pressure too!). Beds (queen and twin bunk) were comfortable (surprisingly, so was the futon in the living room!). You have to bring your own linens and towels which can take up a lot of car space, but it’s fine, and not that uncommon. The entire property/complex is well maintained. As for the private beach area, it was lovely. We were concerned it would be noisy on the channel, but it’s a “no wake” zone, so we saw a lot of boats but weren’t bothered by them at all. Clean sandy beach, picnic table with large umbrella, more than enough plastic Adirondack chairs (perfect for putting in the water 😊), beach toys should you need them, plenty of flotation devices. Diane was very responsive to all of my inquiries both before and during our visit. In short, this “Charmer on the Channel” was perfect for our family of 4 during our week at the lake. We would absolutely return.

Lovely lake front cottage

This cozy lakeside cottage was perfect for our family. It was very clean and nice decorations and furniture. Swimming area right out back and location was perfect for our vacation.

About the host

Host profile image
Hi and thanks for viewing my page and considering Parker Lakeside Cottage for your families vacation! I am brand new to hosting and that's great for you as I am super anxious to make your stay at my cottage extra special!

Why they chose this property

One of the unique benefits to staying at Parker Cottage is that guests are within walking distance to Weirs Beach and other fun spots like the Naswa Resort!

What makes this property unique

Parker Cottage is a special location as you are right in the middle of lots of excitement but still far enough away to relax and enjoy the views while being just steps away from the beach where you can relax, swim, watch the boats go through Paugus Bay and barbecue!
