We had such a terrific time at this cottage. Our kids (ages one, five and seven) spent days swimming in the beautifully clear, warm lake, jumping off the dock, fishing, catching worms, canoeing, playing in the sandbox, and more. My husband went sailing. I took long walks around the beautiful lake. Our dog could not have been happier. The setting is gorgeous and the lake is a pleasure to swim and boat in. Often on the weekdays we felt like we were the only people on the lake (though weekends were busier). The owners were terrific hosts, giving us plenty of privacy but also always there to offer advice, help, supplies, etc. Most days we spent just back and forth between the cottage and the lake, but we also took three very nice trips to the White Mountains (Franconia Notch State Park is gorgeous!), Weirs Beach (minigolf and arcade for the kids) and Alton Bay (delicious dinner on Lake Winnipesaukee). It was an absolutely perfect family vacation.
