YOUR HOSTS:
Tim in Theresa found this hidden gem while looking for a lake front property in NH and ME to unplug from the craziness of the world around us.

We live and work in Massachusetts and love that we can shoot up to this lovely home in a little over an hour. We have 3 busy, youngish girls and a dog named Ozzy. We hope you will find your stay peaceful and relaxing and you will leave with many fond memories of your time with loved ones.

Amazing four day vacation!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at this cottage! Theresa and Tim were great hosts, very responsive and very thoughtful from leaving us toiletries in the event anyone forgot something, to a lovely bottle of wine😁The cottage was very clean and very accommodating, we couldn’t have asked for anything more. It was very well equipped, down to the wood for the fire pit which we thoroughly enjoyed! Best vacation this year! I highly recommend staying here and look forward to coming back! Thank you Theresa and Tim we definitely created some beautiful memories 😁💕

Perfect Lake Gateway

The property is super cute and cozy with a lot of attention to detail. Everything went very well and the owner was very quick to respond when I had questions. Seating by the lake in front of the fire pit was exactly what we needed. The lake is beautiful and peaceful. Would go back in a heart bit.

This place is perfect

First off. Tim and Theresa are the kindest and best owners. We communicated a few times and they were always available for questions. The lake is beautiful with great scenery. We needed a getaway and it was perfect. From the fire pit, dock, boat launch, fishing, hiking to the cute bedrooms, living area and country kitchen….. the home was perfect. We will be looking to repeat.

Lovely lake view

Teresa and Tim worked to quickly resolve some minor issues as they arose. The house is casual and comfortable. The lake views are lovely and relaxing. We saw lots of wildlife( ducks, geese, loons, eagle, great blue heron). The kayaks and canoe were a wonderful way to explore. The lake does have a lot of weeds/ Lilly pad growth, so swimming was not great. Also there was a concern about growth of blue / green algae and bacteria in the lake. We had to clean the dock off several times after the ducks visited! The washer and dryer in the “basement “ was a little intimidating at first as the ceiling is so low and it was dark, but it worked well and and was so convenient. We loved the peaceful setting, sitting by the water was so relaxing. The house had everything we needed.

Just what we needed

My boyfriend and I had a very busy summer, and needed a getaway to recharge before going into my busiest season of the year. We were there in Mid-Late October, and it was beautiful, quiet, and just what we needed. The neighbor's house was much closer than the photos show, but because nobody was there, it didn't matter. We used the canoe one evening, when there was NO wind. The water was absolute glass. What a treat. The grocery store was kind of far away, but on our last day we discovered a restaurant/bar called The Carriage House Bistro & Tavern and it was amazing! I am a chef, and everything we tried was fantastic, and everything that came out of the kitchen looked fantastic as well. We wish we had found it sooner. They even had an excellent selection of Bourbon which my boyfriend was very happy to see. We highly recommend this location, and hope to stay there again in the future.

Much needed break in a great spot

My family really enjoyed our 2-week stay here. The property was as advertised and very well appointed. Clean, comfortable, great kitchen and nice grill (we like to cook). My daughter paddle-boarded each day, my son and I loved the fishing and my wife enjoyed the kayak. Our goal was to go and relax and this place helped us do it. I would highly recommend this.

The bliss I needed

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! After the craziness of the last year and half, I needed a quiet getaway for a few days to just relax and recharge and Dragonfly Cottage was absolutely perfect. The beds are comfy, the kitchen well appointed, the views to die for. Everything. We never left the entire time we were there. Every morning we'd have coffee sitting in the adirondack chairs near the lake. I highly recommend the place. Theresa was very responsive and it's clear they love their cottage!

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL Lake House Getaway!

We had the most fabulous weekend in South Effington! If you're looking to get away and enjoy some time out of the city, this spot is PERFECT. The lake house is super cozy with comfortable beds, an amazing kitchen, and the best little touches like battery-powered candles. You have gorgeous views of the lake inside and out. Step outside... and you can enjoy wine and a book in Adirondack chairs, sit on the dock, or take kayak and/or paddle board out for a spin. At night, build a fire and take in the stars. Really could not have asked for a better stay! Can't wait to get back again soon!

Om värden

Tim Smith är värd

Värdens profilbild
Just your standard working folks with youngish children and a dog. If you look hard you'll find a picture of Ozwald, our 'sort-of' lake dog who is afraid of the water (but getting better!)

Varför värden valde detta boende

Having lived in and then maintained a property in Boston after we moved north, we were looking for something at the other end of the 'city living' spectrum. We had scoured Maine and New Hampshire (and VT a little bit) when we came across this little gem. Province Lake never came up on the radar in our prior searches but when we saw it we loved the out of the way vibe it offered relative to some of the larger lakes. At approx. 1000 acers Province Lake is by no means small, but it seems light years away from the hustle and bustle often found on ‘big’ lakes.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

From Rt. 16 it takes a 25 minute drive down a relatively rustic but very well maintained road (153) to get to the property. You won't find a big-box store or suburban sprawl anywhere near Province Lake. We like the fact that the home is really not a classic camp, but a sturdy, 4 season home that allows for full enjoyment of the fall and winter seasons. In the warmer months the shallow, sandy-bottomed area provides a fun and safe environment for younger children, while those looking for a little more adventure can paddle out to deeper waters. The golf course is challenging yet forgiving and virtually right around the corner! The well-regarded restaurant at the course (Carriage House and Bistro) is open year-round and the property is popular with cross-country skiers in the winter months (though not formally groomed)... Speaking of winter activities, both the King Pines Ski Area in Madison and the Abenaki Ski Area in scenic Wolfeboro are less than 30min. away. Cranmore in ever-popular North Conway is approx. 50 minutes away. The location is also in close proximity to the 'route 19' snow-mobile corridor which allows access to the North East's extensive primary trail system. Or just sit back, read a book and try to spot the eagle.
