About this property
Lake Winni Waterfront Whortleberry Island Cottage, Private Beach, BOAT Required
Welcome to 2 Whortleberry Island, our lakefront retreat on gorgeous Lake Winnipesaukee! Once you come here, you will be totally relaxed and want to come back every year! THIS IS AN ISLAND PROPERTY - BOAT REQUIRED. ALSO, TURNOVER DAY FOR CHECKING IN AND OUT AND FOR CLEANING IS MONDAY, BUT CONTACT OWNER IF SEEKING ACCOMMODATION TO THIS SCHEDULE. *
Enjoy the crystal clear waters of NH's largest lake from this house, with its expansive deck, 2 docks for your boat(s), lovely yard, and private sandy beach. This home is simply the best of "island living," as it is pure relaxation and fun, while only a quick 4-6 minute boat ride from 3 marinas, a public boat launch, a small grocery/liquor store, a wonderful restaurant and other amenities.
The house location is perfect for boating, fishing, stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, water skiing, or just sitting on our private deck, on the hammock or beach and swimming from our easy walk-in to the sandy lake bottom. The home's 180 degree views are simply stunning!
Enjoy the cozy 3 bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths, outdoor shower, and open concept living and dining room bathed in sunlight and with sweeping views of the lake. Hear the call of the loons as you wake to take in the sunrise, enjoy your coffee on the large deck, head out fishing, or wherever your day takes you. Keep an eye out for the frequent bald eagles and herons! Round out your day grilling lakeside, enjoying the fire pit for s'mores, and being serenaded by the loons at nightfall.
The kitchen is fully stocked and the dining table and table on the deck each seats 6-8.
Our home is accessed only by guest's boat. If you need a rental, we recommend nearby Melvin Village Marina.
Nearby favorites for you to enjoy include:
* Birch & Vine Restaurant, Tuftonboro/Melvin Village (wonderful food and cockails)
* Pier 19 Country Store (great pizza, ice cream, grocery items, liquor and other to go items)
* Bailey's Bubble, Wolfeboro (ice cream)
* Abenaki Tower (Great elevated views of the lake)
* Castle in the Clouds, Moultonborough (Great hikes with waterfalls and more!)
* Skelly's Market, Moultonborough (great breakfast sandwiches and to go items)
* Melvin Village marina (for renting a boat if you need to)
* Harilla Landing and Yacht Club (for a launch area and parking, although we provide parking passes)
* Trexler's Marina (for renting a boat if you need to)
* Wolfeboro Jet Ski Rentals
* Garwoods Restaurant, Wolfeboro
* Off The Water Marine (OTW) Located at Harilla Landing and Yacht club, for boat repairs if necessary.
We look forward to welcoming you!
