About the host
Hosted by Pam and Lisa
We love dogs—they’re family to us, and we know how hard it is to leave them behind. That’s why our home is dog-friendly!
This is my childhood home, nestled in a convenient location just 15 minutes from Concord, Laconia, Gilford, and Tilton, and only a few miles from the Loudon NASCAR Race Track. (During the holiday season, you can even enjoy dazzling Christmas lights as you drive through the track!)
Nature lovers will appreciate the wildlife that often passes through—whether strolling across the front yard, dashing through the driveway, or calling from the woods. This is their home too.
For your furry friends, we have a spacious, 6-foot fenced-in backyard, complete with green turf to keep their paws clean. While they play, you can unwind in the 7-person hot tub within the fenced area.
There is a grill, please inform host if tank is empty to ssure it is ready for the next guests.
End your evenings gathered around the large fire pit, perfect for creating lasting memories with family and friends—wood included!
