Management company was contact. Listed wood stove in description, its only for owner use. This was extremely disappointing as it was part of criteria to book. Very clean, lots of dishes, cookware was dirty, great pillows, good towels, beauty balconies and view

Thank you for your feedback. We are happy you enjoyed this home. We sincerely apologize for the issues you have encountered during your stay. We'll continue to work closely with both our local staff and the homeowner to make improvements to this home, and we look forward to welcoming you back for another wonderful getaway in the future.
Lovely stay with family visiting from New Zealand. Highlights fire pit, views, loons comfortable beds easy access to towns with variety of food types for eating out. Only ambiguity was in amenities lthat said washer dryer but in brackets says private. !?Overall good value for money 8 people peaceful and met expectations.
What a gem! Fabulous location. The house was lovely with lots of cozy sitting areas inside and out on the patio. Please note: there are many stairs down to the house which presented a challenge for some in our group. That said, we all agreed it was well worth the effort! Would love to stay again next year.

Beautiful home
We loved the location and the landscaping of this house. Wish the weather was better....will go back but in July or August
We really enjoyed our stay at this house. The location is beautiful and the home was very well appointed, comfortable, and clean. We don't generally cook on our trips, but if that's your thing, the kitchen had a large selection of pots and pans, enough decent knives to prepare a meal, and lots of tableware. It was also conveniently located to things we wanted to see in the White Mountains as well as Portsmouth. Two things that would make this place perfect for visitors who aren't familiar with the property: A motion sensor or some other way get the light turned on at the top of the outdoor stairs when you return in the dark and have forgotten to leave the outdoor lights on; and, something to draw the eye to the little lip leading from the living area into the downstairs bathroom. We all caught our feet on it. Other than that, we found this house to be a fantastic place to call home base for our trip.

Great property and perfect for family stay. We used it as a base for ski races at Gunstock, only 10 minutes away. Fantastic waterfront property and views are outstanding. We would definitely come back.
We loved this place! It was perfect! Fishing, paddle boarding, floating dock, fire pit & the view!…and the sunrises and sunsets were stunning 😍 we will be returning for sure ♥️

Beautiful view and cozy house
Loved the view! House was cozy and lots of gathering options. House was well stocked with kitchen supplies. We had a wonderful ladies getaway. Thank you!
We spent 4 days at this beautiful home on the lake. The house was immaculate and quietly situated in a cove. We swam, kayaked and read on the deck. This would be perfect for a large family vacation and we’ll be back with our kids for sure.

Family vacation
Beautiful view, layout of the house extremely functional for families.
Difficult access if struggling with mobility issues.
Thanks to this family who allowed us to get our “lake fix”. The home is family inclusive and well appointed. We were not for want of anything. Our family is 5 adults we all felt lake cozy. Again thanks to this family for allowing us to share their well loved home
Great spot on the lake between the cove & islands. House was in great shape and having a relaxing living space on each floor was convenient. While there were a good amount of stairs to get from the driveway to the house, it was well-maintained. The view was phenomenal from just about everywhere in the house and the second floor deck was nice but could have used some chairs/tables. Would definitely rent again.
Phenomenal location with fantastic dock, expansive multi-level outdoor area, and kitchen with ample cooking equipment. We had a great week and would recommend to anyone that loves spending time without the distractions of too-crowded coves, or noisy neighbors. Really amazing place to unwind, swim, kayak and boat.
