Lake Winnipesaukee Island Cabin
We had an amazing time at the cabin. The sunrises were gorgeous, cooking on the grill, kayaking/paddle boarding, cozy fires, and everything we could have needed! We made such great memories and appreciated you and Matt’s hospitality so much. The cabin was great and so were you guys. We will definitely be back!

Waterfront Rustic Cabin
This was our 2nd stay at the Red Cabin. We and our dog enjoyed our stay and love the peace, quiet, sunsets, and loons of Chalk Pond and the Selt trails nearby. We tried some new restaurants and recommend Ellacoya and The Breeze for dinner and Ames Farm Inn for breakfast. We highly recommend staying here. Both hosts are great!

Winnisquam Cabin with shared beach, dock available
Had a great time staying at this gem! Had all appliances you need to stay in and cook all weekend and had an amazing grille! Very quiet and peaceful. Would recommend

Secluded Wooded Waterfront Home Near Lake Winn.
Our stay was wonderful! The home was so much more spacious than we had expected. It worked out so well for all of us. Throughout the stay, I had a few questions and Steve was quickly and kindly responsive. We hope to definitely get to come back again. Thank you Steve!!!

Peaceful Ossipee Lake Cottage Private Beach/Dock
Absolutely loved our stay! What a perfect location for fall foliage and leaf peeping.

Lakeside cabin, Lake Winnepesaukee
Best way to start and end the summer season is with a week at Raycraft! I think this was something like at least our 30th stay! Great house that truly feels like our home away from home. Already looking forward to June of 2025!

Terrapin Station - lakeside rustic 3 bed/ 1.5 bath
We had a wonderful time. The house was just right for 6 adults and a baby. There was great lake access with several kayaks to use and a canoe. The kitchen had everything we needed. Wendy was easy to reach and responded to our questions quickly.

The Loon Nest, Waterfront Lake House, Wood Hot Tub
The house was clean and well maintained. The view was gorgeous, too bad Mother Nature didn’t cooperate. It was cold and rainy. Used the fire pit nightly and it was nice. Linens were clean, towels were soft and fluffy and smelled freshly laundered. Kitchen was spotless and well stocked with pot/pans and dishes. Having a dishwasher was nice too. Two grocery stores (Hannaford and Market Basket) were close by and plenty of restaurants too. We came with the intention of doing nothing and just changing scenery for the weekend. This place was perfect.

This was a lovely unit, the backyard was beautiful and the amenities were great

Locke Lake Waterfront Escape
Great and relaxing location, close to local amenities. Perfect for small groups, Hillary was awesome to rent from.

2 BR Condo Beachfront Walk to NH Pavilion
Justin’s place was such a great find. I was in town to see a show at Meadowbrook/Bank of NH Pavilion and this place was perfect as you can walk to the venue from Justin’s place. The beach was a great perk as well. Justin was wicked responsive and provided great instructions and recommendations. Hoping to stay for another trip this summer!

Lake Winnipesaukee Condo w/ Beach Access!
My family stayed here for a ski trip. It was beautifully located overlooking a large lake with mountains in the distance - I loved waking up to that! The place was clean and nicely decorated. We appreciated the games shelf. 10 minute drive from Gunstock Mountain. Great nearby restaurants.

Welcome to the Lake
Gary and Nick were wonderful hosts, extremely accommodating and very communicative and flexible. The surroundings alone were so picturesque , each morning and dawn was like a painting - I’ll be back for sure !

Lakehurst Lakefront Cottages #8
Janet and Jim were extremely responsive leading up to and during our stay, along with being flexible around checkin times. They answered all our questions about the property and provided anything we needed. This Airbnb was a perfect place to spend the night after doing some hiking at nearby NH mountains and we would definitely come back, overall a great stay!

Waterfront home on Lake Winona & Private Beach
We were two couples and enjoyed our stay at the lodge. It is well organized and located in a beautiful setup on the lake. A relatively short 30 minutes drive allowed us easy access to the white Mountains attractions. Vanessa was proactive on closing the open space above the bedroom doors just before we came - so this issue as reported in some other reviews has gone away… in short - highly recommended!

White Mtns Waterfront Chalet w/ Private Beach
We had a great stay, very peaceful and perfect for our family of four. Patrick was proactive and helpful, very responsive with any questions I had. House was clean and as advertised, enjoyed the kayak and canoe, screened in porch was fun during a storm too! Pond was perfect for the kids. General store down the street for immediate needs, and close to North Conway and Meredith for day trips. Great experience, hope to be back soon!

Direct Lakefront. Swim/Fish/Kayak White Mountains
We enjoyed our stay in the cute cabin. Since it was winter and we were mostly away from the cabin visiting family, we didn't get to take advantage of the lake and activities. But we enjoyed sipping coffee at the kitchen table and taking in the view of the frozen lake.

Cottage at Newfound lake with great view.
Bjorn and Elaine's stay was absolutely incredible! We went up to see foliage and it was the perfect stay for it! Overlooking the lake and the leaves was stunning! Close to many local restaurants and hiking spots, you couldn't ask for anything more!

Lakefront w/Private Beach - Luxury Log House!
Had a great experience staying at this beautiful home. The host supplied literally everything which we really appreciated! The wood, propane, paper towels, bath towels, fishing tackle, rods - the list goes on. Everything was easy to get to & accessible. We loved the kayaks & canoe, rowing around the lake was very peaceful & had a beautiful view. The part I enjoyed the most was how comfortable the beds were, It fell like I was sleeping on a cloud. I would definitely recommend this place if you’re looking to spend a weekend with friends and family, while enjoying a campfire near the water.

Winnisquam Lake House
This place was amazing! It was far more than we expected. We had rented for a family reunion. The house was very clean, large, and well stocked with dishes, a wide range of cooking supplies and every convenience. My husband forgot his shaving cream- and there was some in the cabinet! There was lotion, q-tips, and even pampers for use if needed. There were games to play, some condiments in the fridge and short, clear check out instructions. The owners were friendly, responsive, and not hovering. They checked in a couple times to make sure everything was going well. Highly recommend this place and the owners. If I could give them 10 stars I would. Next time we need a place in that area, we will specifically look for this place and these owners.
