Happy Place exceeded all of our expectations! The house is even more beautiful than the photos and was perfect for our group of two adults, three teenagers, a younger child, and a water loving dog. There was plenty of space, comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms, and everything was impeccably clean.The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the washer and dryer were incredibly convenient. The deck overlooking a picture perfect view of Lake Sunapee quickly became our favorite spot for morning coffee and family dinners.The lake itself was the highlight. The water was crystal clear, clean, and the perfect temperature for swimming. The bottom is mostly sandy with a little natural debris and a few rocks near the shore, but no silty muck or weeds—you can see straight to the bottom! Some of us wore water shoes while others went barefoot, and everyone was comfortable. The kayaks and paddle boards were a fantastic bonus and were used every day.The house was well stocked with bath and beach towels, check-in and check-out were seamless. The neighborhood was quiet, peaceful, and relaxing, yet still conveniently located. Shaw's is about 20 minutes away, with several restaurants nearby. We also loved exploring Sunapee Harbor and New London. By far our favorite family lake house vacation—we hope to absolutely stay here again!
