LARGE Lake Home. SANDY BEACH Access. PERFECT for Families with KIDS! Golf!

This large 3000 square feet, 3 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom 4-season GORGEOUS vacation home features 3 levels of living space and tons of modern amenities, making it the perfect getaway for FAMILIES. Located in a private community on Ossipee Lake, you'll have access to a beautifully maintained large SANDY BEACH that is perfect for relaxing and swimming. The beach is a 15 minute walk down the road, 3 minute drive or 5 minute GOLF CART ride (we let guests use our golf cart). Our huge deck overlooks a half acre lawn, beyond which is a GOLF course. Tons of amenities (boating, tubing, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, outlet shopping, restaurants, kids activities) are nearby. Your kids will never be bored, which means you'll have a relaxing vacation!!! For moms of young children, we have lots of baby and toddler essentials to make your stay comfortable (see Mom's Section below for full details.). North Conway (23 miles away) and all it has to offer (day trips to STORY LAND! 28 miles away!) is nearby.

We are following enhanced cleaning protocols.

***PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING***
Please note that we accept up to 6 guests (with a maximum of 4 adults). Our home is best suited for families with kids.

Please note we do not accept pets. Sorry, no exceptions.

New as of Summer 2022: Our existing central A/C has been replaced with a new one to make your summer stay even more comfortable!

ABOUT THE HOUSE:
This is our family vacation home and we want you to love it here just as much as we do!

HOUSE LAYOUT:
This home is very spacious (about 3,000 square feet). The first level has an open concept kitchen, living room (with queen memory foam sleeper couch), dining room (seats 8 comfortably) and half bathroom (with washing machine and dryer). You can walk-out onto our large deck that overlooks our expansive lawn (well treed around the perimeter for privacy) and beyond that the local golf course.

The second floor features a massive master bedroom suite, private bath, and attached spacious den (with tv, huge recliner and desk). There is also a room with a bunk bed (memory foam mattresses, twin on top, double on bottom and twin trundle pull out on bottom) that is perfect for kids (or adults). Also on this floor is a guest room (with a comfortable queen bed) and a full bathroom for kids and guests to share.

There is a walk-out lower level floor that has another spacious living room space, open play (or additional sleeping) area, sports bar and full bathroom. The sectional downstairs is a memory foam double sleeper couch.

A huge deck overlooks our half acre backyard which is well treed for privacy. The walk-out lower level floor opens onto the backyard. There is a slope down to the main backyard (see pics). There is a path along the side of the slope to make it an easy walk down to this part of the backyard for kids.

BEACH INFO:
This Vacation Home is located in a Private Lakeside Community on Ossipee Lake. Only members and guests of the association can use the Beach, which is one of the largest and best maintained beaches on the lake!

The large private shared beach takes about three minutes to drive or about a fifteen minute walk (which is a nice walk but is hilly). A popular way to get there is by golf cart (takes less than five minutes and the kids LOVE it!) and we let guests use ours (contact owner for details).

The beach is well maintained and has so many features including SANDY beach with a shallow slope (it's hard to find one that is perfect for kids but this one is!). There is also an area that is roped off for swimming. There is a playground on the beach as well as some picnic tables.

You must display a beach access pass if you drive to the beach which we will provide as part of the rental.

In addition to the Beach, there is a large baseball field that you will have access to (about a ten minute walk or two minute drive).

BOATS:
There is a loading dock available for temporary loading/unloading only. There are a couple places on the lake within a few miles of the house that offer reasonably priced boat rentals. A really fun activity is to rent a boat and go across the Lake to picnic at one of the sand bars.

Please note that the Boat Launch on the beach is NOT available for guests to use.

GOLF INFO:
For the golfers in your family, our backyard overlooks Indian Mound Golf Course (an 18 Hole Course). After a round, enjoy some food, drink and live music at River's Edge Grill and Tavern, the restaurant on the course. There are around six or so other golf courses in the Wolfeboro, North Conway and Wakefield, NH area (which is about 20 miles away).

The perfect lake rental for families with little ones!
The owners could not have made this house easier for our family! We have two boys (2.5 & 17mo) and we barely needed to pack more than their clothes. The owners set up booster seats at the kitchen table, there was a pack and play assembled, a toddler bed made up, a diaper genie, potty training seats, beach toys, the list goes on! Literally, anything you could need for a toddler was in the house. The boys loved taking the golf cart to the beach, which was also perfect for their age. Just the right size beach for them - very shallow and full of kids to play with! The owners (Marlene) gets right back to you and had all kinds of helpful suggestions for things to do with little ones. Highly recommend this rental!

Beautiful property!!
We loved every part of this rental property... it was perfect for our family and young kids. We had a gift basket waiting for us when we arrived and we were pleasantly surprised to see how kid friendly the house was - high chairs, pack n play, endless beach and play toys, baby gates, deck toys. The golf cart we could ride to the lake made for another fun part of the vacation. The deck was relaxing and quiet and had comfy chairs to sit in. The lake was never crowded and had incredible sunsets and views of the mountains... and a great playground. The house was very spacious and every level had enough space. We cannot say enough good things about this house and our stay... we cannot wait to stay again! The little touches were appreciated!

Beautiful house and great location. Highly recommend!
We had a great vacation. The house is beautiful and very spacious. It had everything we needed and then some. It’s a great house for kids. There were so many toys and necessities for our young daughter. Our teenage daughter and her friend also had plenty to do at the house and nearby. The location is perfect. There is a beach in the neighborhood and is also close to other local beaches, marinas, restaurants, etc. The access to the golf cart to ride down to the beach was very helpful. The homeowner is very friendly and made sure we had a great stay. She provided valuable information that helped make us comfortable in the home. Overall we had a great experience and would highly recommend this rental!

Greetings VRBO-ers! We are a family with two young children. Our vacation home is our getaway from the city, a place where our kids play for hours on the beach and can run freely in our backyard. It's a place where extended family and guests can stay with us and won't feel crammed, and where we don't miss the amenities we have in the city. We hope you feel the same way when you stay with us, and we strive to make your stay comfortable and relaxing so that when you leave you feel like you've had a great vacation. Whether you are a golfer, shopper, boater, hiker, beach goer or skier our vacation home has something to offer you year round!
