FAQs

1. Is the map on VRBO accurate?

Answer: Not entirely. The property is on the same side of the road as the lake and Mirror Lake is closer to the house than it appears on the map. It is less than a minute walk from the house to the edge of the water. Mirror Lake is a fresh water lake in the White Mountains. Please note that while we are on the lake, we are also on a main road and you may hear road noise while staying at the house.

2. Can we swim, kayak, or fish in the lake?

Answer: Yes, Yes, & Yes! A single person kayak is available for use.

3. What do you mean by shared property?

Answer: Our suite is part of the Lakeside Condominium Association. It sits on 2.65 acres which is shared with other cabins. You have privacy in the condo and screened-in porch. You can also meet some great people down by the lake and at the fire pit (or have playmates for children) when you want to be more social.

4. With other cabins on the property, will we have privacy?

For the most part, yes. There are times when there are more and less people staying on the property. Weekdays tend to be quieter on the lake.

5. Are there other children on the property?

Usually there are other children there. Our children enjoy playing in the water with the other children, making smores by the bonfire, or playing a game of kickball.

6. During ski/snowmobiling season, who is responsible for snow removal?

We have someone who plows the driveway if there is more than a few inches of snow. We have shovels and salt available to clear paths. It is the responsibility of guests to remove snow & ice from pathways.

Serenity suite

We enjoyed our stay at the Serenity Suite. It had everything necessary for cooking our meals, and the place was clean and comfortable. It was close to the northern White Mountains which was where we wanted to hike, and swimming in the lake was a great way to cool off after. We also saw two loons and two baby loons! Great stay overall.

Kind folks and superb location for day trips-incredible hikes ! Loved being on the lake and having a kayak. They were responsive when we ran into a blown fuse. It had fewer supplies than we anticipated based on reviews and description such as having to supply/replace several items including soap and toilet paper.

Great location & stay

This was a perfect spot for being near hiking (less than ten minutes to Weeks State Park), kayaking, and other area attractions. This was just a layover spot for us while we waited to get our kids from camp, but I thoroughly enjoyed time on Mirror Lake using the hosts’ kayak and relaxing. There was a nice breeze at night off the lake through the bathroom window directly across from the main bedroom. As the host reports, there is road noise on the front, but we were aware ahead of time and it did not bother us. It’s just a nine minute drive to Smokin’ T’s Bar & Grill which had incredible burgers and bbq!

Weekend getaway

A perfect space for my best friend and I. We loved the full kitchen, the amount of seating available, the comfortable beds, and the beautiful view of the lake. It had everything you could need from dishes to pots and pans, cooking spices, an abundance of towels, and so many games! It was comfortable and relaxing.

We vacation in New Hampshire twice a year and realistically know everything isnt new. But this was by far the worse place we stayed. We slept with the covers on the bed as when we pulled back the covers we were greeted with pubic hair. Room smelt damp. Pics were not what we got. Shower had mold. Fan was covered in dust We left early.

Great Anniversary Getaway!

My husband and I stayed here for our 15th anniversary and loved this sweet lakeside condo! The condo itself was immaculate, very well supplied, open and airy. The screened in porch was perfect for morning coffee and evening meals off the grill and the surrounding towns had plenty of things to do. We went to antique shops, a flea market, a local brewery, a water park, a hike up Franconia Notch and even zip lining! We were really pleased with the balance of relaxation and entertainment this location provided. We'll definitely be back!

Comfortable, Affordable and Modern

Overall 10/10 would stay again. Love the lake and the general setting. The place was easy to find via Google maps and/or Waze, though the provided instructions prior to arrival were also very detailed. The place was everything you would expect and need from a STR, clean, comfortable and quiet. Internet speed was better than expected! I didn’t even need to contact the hosts. Thanks again to my hosts. Y’all’s place rocks!

A Great Place to Stay!!!

I am so happy that I chose to stay here instead of a hotel. The condo is super cute and spacious. Everything was exactly as shown and described. While it is on the main road, we were not bothered by the sounds of cars passing by at all. The best thing though is the price. Staying here was definitely cheaper and more convenient then staying in any of the hotels in the area. Along with the great price came the privacy and space of a small home compared to three of us being crammed in one small hotel room. I would highly recommend staying here if you plan on visiting the area.

Cute and cozy

We had a great time here. The place is cozy and had everything we needed. The view from the window to mirror lake was beautiful. My kids had a fun time running around, sitting in the chairs and rolling down the nice grassy hill out back. We come to whitefield every year for a club we are in, we were literally 5 mins from our event. The town has some cool stores and a ice cream place that was packed. We also eat at grandmas kitchen every time we come and it was two seconds away! We would definitely stay again!
