This vacation 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!
