About this property

Waterfront Squam home, 7 BR/5 Bath, Dock, Pickleball+Tennis, Kayaks+Paddleboards

Welcome to our spectacular 7 bedroom, 5 bathroom waterfront vacation house on Squam Lake that we call “Camp Kusumpy". This spacious contemporary home featured expansive indoor and outdoor spaces that comfortably accommodate large groups. It sits on 18 acres of land, with over 300 yards of private shorefront on a quiet cove with mountain and sunset views.

=================================================

The home was designed with one purpose in mind - to create the ideal setting for memorable family and group vacations. The house is just steps from the shoreline of Squam Lake, and offers views of the lake and mountains from most rooms in the house. The whole family will enjoy the waterfront area, where you will find a 50' long dock with two 12' x 22' floating platforms attached to it, providing room to hang out in the sun for up to 14 people.

We provide you with 5 kayaks and 2 paddleboards free of charge so you can explore the shoreline of this nearly private cove. Outside of the cove you can explore the shoreline of nearby islands and reefs. The dock is long enough to accommodate 2 motor boats if you choose to rent one during your stay.

For those who like games of all sorts, you are in luck! The house has a bumper pool table in the living room and loads of board games, plus backgammon and chess boards. In the side yard you'll find a shaded bocce court, and in the backyard you'll have your own private tennis court with a gentle clay court surface - just like the French Open courts! It also has lines for Pickleball! Something for everyone!

Read the reviews, our past renters paint a better picture of their vacation experience at Camp Kusumpy than we ever could!

Here are four reasons why this Squam Lake Vacation Rental is so popular:

1) Waterfront location in a quiet cove with 300+ yards of private shoreline, a long spacious dock , a raft to swim to, boating and fishing, and views of nearby mountains
2) Lots of room! Four bedrooms with queen sized beds for couples, PLUS two large bunk rooms with four bunk beds each - perfect for kids! As a bonus, there is also a screen porch upstairs with another queen sized bed
3) Entertaining mix of modern amenities (2 GIG WIFI, Smart TV , 6 burner/2 oven gas stove), old classics (collection of board games, bumper pool table), plus a rustic clay tennis court which also has lines for pickleball
4) Offers great space, privacy and value for big groups vs comparable hotel and vacation home rental options. Lots of indoor and outdoor space to spread out in

ACTIVITIES AND FEATURES FOR EVERYONE

The house has something for everyone in your group. Whether you are enjoying coffee on the dock as the mist rises off the lake, having lunch on the two picnic tables on the shaded lakefront deck, taking a swim, playing a round of tennis or pickleball on the private har-tru clay court, playing bocce on the shaded court with lake views, taking an afternoon nap in the lakefront hammock, playing one of many board games or bumper pool with the kids, sitting on the screened-in porch at sunset, or gathering around the game table after dinner, this is the place where you and your family will enjoy a memorable vacation together.

This lakefront house is an outstanding location for your vacation. It sits in a calm, protected cove on Squam Lake, with a long dock that will accommodate power boats, a small fleet of kayaks for your enjoyment, and a raft to swim to.

Its location on Squam Lake's southeastern shore afford you a sweeping view of the Squam Range mountains, and the sunsets that splash them in color each night. This location also provides easy access to a number of attractions and activities nearby. The Squam Range offers mountain hiking trails, and fast moving rivers and brooks. Shopping and restaurants can be found in Sandwich and Center Harbor, both just 4 miles away. There is a golf course in nearby Meredith, a Science Center in Holderness, and quaint country villages all within easy reach.

Squam Lake is ideal for swimming, snorkeling, waterskiing and fishing. A wealth of coves and islands can be explored by kayak. For hikers, the Squam Range, White mountains and Presidential Range offer trails ranging from 30 minutes to all-day excursions. The Koenig Wildlife Reserve down the road and Loon Center are perfect for bird enthusiasts, while the Squam Lakes Science Center's collection of raptors, otters, bobcats, bears, and even mountain lions is a great spot for the whole family.

Should it rain during your vacation, the house is well stocked with board games, books, a bumper pool table and other diversions. There is a movie theater 15 minutes away in Meredith, and Fun Park and Arcade Games at Wiers Beach in Laconia to keep everyone happy. If you don't feel like cooking, the nearby town of Center Harbor has upscale Italian, Thai and Chinese restaurants, pizzerias, Dunkin Donuts and diners.

We spent out summers in a restored barn that is about a quarter mile away on the same cover as our current house. In 1970 our grandmother carved out a separate parcel for our family to build on, and in 1974 we opened up the home we now call Camp Kusumpy Our family vacations here each year in August, and we welcome all feedback on how to continuously improve the property for our guests
