This house was amazing for our family. The layout was perfect for our large group of families with lots of kids. A 5min walk or 2min bike ride to the lake. Very friendly area. 10min drive to groceries and restaurants. Canoes and kayaks were lots of fun!
We’ve stayed at this property a number of times and will keep coming back. It’s the perfect mix of historic charm and modern convenience.Wadleigh State Park is nearby with many options for summer fun and we enjoy all of them. A great experience!
Rented the place for the weekend to snowboard at Sunappee and spend time with family. The accommodations were perfect with plenty of space to spread out for both adults and kids.
This place has everything to host 2 families. My family and my sister family stayed and went to Mount sunapee for snowboarding. Kitchen has everything, lost space to eat, lots to lounge, foosball and ping pong to entertain.
This was our second stay at this property in North Sutton, NH. From the proximity to Wadleigh State Park and Keyser Lake to the fire pit for warm nights or gas fireplace for chilly nights this is a great vacation spot. The house is charming and well appointed with a contemporary kitchen and comfortable bedrooms. Planning another vacation there next year!
My husband and I brought our four young adult kids and a few of their friends and significant others for July 4 weekend. We were unprepared for how perfect and special the house and property would be. We all agreed it was magical. For starters, the bedrooms accommodated all eight of us beautifully. Then there were all the "stations" to enjoy: the living room, covered porch, firepit, wide open lawn for throwing a frisbee, the game room upstairs that kept the kids occupied for hours, and the lake nearby to swim in and walk around. We can't recommend the place highly enough and hope to go back again many times!
This was the second women’s retreat I have hosted at this perfect cottage. It is spacious, cozy, has everything you could need in the kitchen, and just a really lovely energy. Patti is easy to communicate with. We will definitely be back!
We had a great weekend. The house was beautiful and relaxing. The house was very cool and comfortable even though it was over 95 degrees outside. Thank you Patty & Chris!

You are welcome.
We are so happy you enjoyed your stay.
Join us again soon!
We had a terrific stay at this wonderfully kept and updated craftsman cottage. The owners were incredibly responsive and always there for us if we needed anything prior or during our stay. Cozy, communal and perfect for our stay during the final winter time. But you can see it would be a tremendous location in all the other outdoor seasons as well. Close to New London, for shops, food and dining. A great stay. We’ll return!

Jeff, thank you.
We look forward to your return!
Feel free to pass on our contact info at Proctor.
We loved staying here and will likely come back!
The house is wonderful, comfie beds and well-stocked kitchen, the lake is fabulous, not too crowded and very clean. The kayaks were super fun to be able to use.
Washing the sheets and towels before check out is a drag but we managed it and still want to come back so there you go! Owners were easy to communicate with.
The property was in a beautiful setting and meticulously well maintained. Everything was as listed and accommodated all members of our family, ages 8-79. If needed, the owners were available to answer any of our questions. They followed up during our stay to make sure everything was OK. An easy and enjoyable experience!

Kevin, thank you for the review. We enjoyed hosting you. You're welcome anytime!
We had a group of 4 adults and 2 children (under 12). The house was beautiful and had a ton of space for all of us. Charming older house and we loved the architecture. Easy access to the lake and got plenty of use out of the floats and the canoe in the shed! Always a plus to have a grill and a fire pit for smores too!

Elaine, so glad you you were in able to enjoy all the amenities and features of the house and lake. Please come back and visit again soon.
Well maintained home with lots of room for everyone and all conveniences supplied. We rented for 2 nights to spend 2 days skiing at Sunapee Mtn. The gas fireplace and pool table were a nice bonus! Linens are provided but owner does require renters to launder anything used, so be prepared to bring your own if you don't want to be bothered with that. Owners were very responsive to all questions.
This property was very nice and very private. We enjoyed using the home, yard and nearby Lake. The water was close by but we did have to cross a main road to get there and I would say its about a half a mile walk. The lake was beautiful. We swam at the beach and used the boat launch for kayaking and our fishing boat. The home and yard were very comfortable and relaxing. The hosts were amazing to work with, always responded quickly when we had a question. We would definitely consider going back here.
This beautifully appointed, impeccably clean, vacation home was perfect for our visit to the region for a family reunion. We ranged from grandparents, to adult children to grandchildren (3 yo and 6 mo). The house was perfectly equipped to accommodate young children, with safety features, games and toys. The 3 yo especially was thrilled that a child's chair was included in the fire pit circle. With a grocery store available close by in New London, our stay was made very easy. We would definitely stay there again.

What makes this property unique
We came to this area for skiing and fell in love with the summers, with all the lakes and mountains have to offer. Lake Kezar, Lake Pleasant and Lake Sunapee are amazing boating and fishing areas! The hiking and trail running are great, especially Mt. Kearsage. The skiing at Sunapee is outstanding and each summer is enchanting!
