About this property

Rust Pond, Wolfeboro NH, Beautiful, Quiet Lakefront Chalet, "Campbellot"

Welcome to “Campbellot”
This lovely year-round chalet is situated in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire. It is perched only 20 ft. from private waterfront on crystal clear Rust Pond. Rust Pond is a quiet 210-acre pristine lake in South Wolfeboro, 'The Oldest Summer Resort in America.' From the master bedroom balcony, you can see the morning sunrise, watch fish swim, or simply take in the serenity. Walking out on to the dock with your coffee, you may decide to slip in for an early morning dip, being the first to quietly pierce the calm water. Breakfast on the deck is a must. In the late summer you will smile at the mist rising above the surface, offering the warmth of the lake to the crisp morning air.

The fall foliage draws many to the lakes region, but it is a quieter season on the lake and in town. A great time of year for relaxing, beautiful hikes, fishing, and the brave hearted can still polar-bear swim. You can warm up by the gas fireplace on the deck.

Winter at Campbellot can be peaceful enjoyment of the cottage and cozy gas fireplace taking in the solitude of winter and beauty of the night skies. Winter can also be lake-skating, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, downhill skiing (Gunstock 21miles, King Pine 29miles, Cranmore 43miles, Attitash 51miles), and of course sledding.

This spot is amazing. Even with the challenging weather we had, there were plenty of fans in the cabin for the hot days and plenty of games for the rainy days. And as usual the swimming was the best!

A slice of heaven on Rust Pond

We stayed here exactly 10 years ago (2014) and came back this summer (2024) when our children were 18, 23, and 27. The house is set up amazingly well with everything you need. The outdoor swimming dock, canoe, kayak, paddle boards, row boat, and plentiful inflatable water tubes. We spent much of the time on the deck, enjoying the view, talking, reading, relaxing, and swimming. Elaine quickly answered all questions before we arrived and was available when we were there. She added extra fans to help make the evenings more comfortable with the humid weather. We have rented many homes over the years, and if it wasn't for the nearly 15-hour drive from Ohio, we would definitely return annually. Rust Pond is the perfect lake because it is big enough to do everything yet small enough to canoe around and paddleboard around. The water is perfect for swimming and very clean. Thanks for an amazing week!

Great Trip!

We are from California and were really excited about our visit to NH. The house was perfect and the lake lovely. My family spent a most of the time in the lake swimming and we made a couple trips into town for dinner (which was close and had plenty of options). Overall, a wonderful experience. Elaine was one of the best hosts we ever had. Kids were never bored, loved the lake, really relaxing and fun time. Would highly recommend.

Perfect end of summer get away

Our family loved our time at Campbellot. It was the perfect location for our end of summer get away. This was our first time staying on Rust Pond which is perfect for swimming. Just a few miles from town, we enjoyed spending mornings on the walking trail and browsing the shops in town. Once the heat of the day kicked in we were more than happy to spend the remainder of the day back at Rust Pond either swimming or boating on the available kayaks, paddle boards, or canoe. Plenty of options for everyone. Evenings were spent at the camp fire, or in town for the concert in the park or ice cream at the Yum Yum shop or Bailey's Bubble. We never seem to have enough days in Wolfeboro, always a favorite destination for the entire family.

Beautiful spot on Rust Pond

Campbellot on Rust Pond has everything going for it: waterside with a dock; peaceful and quiet with little boat traffic and clean, clear water. Enough water toys to keep you busy if you don't want to just float away the day (like me). The house has everthing you need with enough space to not to be on top of each other. So much time on the deck watching the loons, having morning coffee, eating meals and lounging in the sunshine. loved being so close to downtown Wolfeboro and even Alton Bay. Elaine is an excellent host and very respponsive to any questions or concerns. Highly recommend this property and hope there is an opening next year for another stay.

Perfect vacation retreat

Our family spent three days at Cambellot and cannot recommend it more. The house has everything you need, from large rooms, comfortable beds, stocked kitchen, updated bathrooms, good Wi-Fi, and a large selection of board games for family fun. We requested for linens and towels to be provided and they provided more than enough. The best part of Campbellot is it’s location on beautiful Rust Pond. We spent hours using the provided canoe and boats and life jackets out on Rust Pond. It was quiet and peaceful and not crowded at all and the water was comfortable for swimming. We would return to Campbellot anytime. We had a wonderful stay and could have stayed longer.
