My family had a great time at the house. The location is fantastic. We spent most of our time relaxing on the porch and sitting/swimming at the beach. There are some good nearby restaurants and shops as well.

This is our second time staying at Camp Cotter and we had a wonderful stay this year as well. We enjoyed the beautiful views of the lake and mountains from the deck, on the water, and while sitting on the beach. Our two dogs wore themselves out jumping off the dock & swimming each day. Jim was responsive to our needs. We hope to return next summer, too.

Annual visitor

We have visited Camp Cotter two summers in a row and plan to come back next year. The view can’t be beat and having the boat ramp and dock is very convenient. It has been a great place to make family memories. Jim couldn’t be a better host. Very kind and quick to respond to questions.

Relaxing lake front vacation

We absolutely loved the lake front property. The boat ramp made it very easy to take jet skis in and out of the water. I thought we’d venture out and do some other activities in the area but we spent the whole week swimming, boating, paddling, and relaxing. There is a large beach area, fire pit, and beautiful deck. The sunsets are gorgeous. The beach at this location is very shallow. You can walk out pretty far and the water is only chest level, which is nice for younger kids. The house had everything we needed. - although you do need to bring all of your own linens, paper goods, and towels. Highly recommended for a quiet getaway.

Beautiful beachfront home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here with our 21mo grandson and pups. The home is comfortable for all. Front deck and furniture for coffee, dinners and reading. Beach front is perfect for toddler and water access. The water is great sandy bottom to walk out quite a way. Owner is very responsive to all questions. There is a boat dock but ramp very shallow to back trailer in far enough. Neighbors were so kind. We did take boat out at Lakeport Landing. Sunsets are beautiful and fire on the beach at night. We look forward to another family stay here next year.

Wonderful Week @ Camp Cotter

My husband and I & our two dogs had a wonderful week staying at Camp Cotter on Lake Ossipee! The house was spacious for just of the two of us, and we loved hanging out on the deck, especially to watch the beautiful sunsets. Both dogs had a blast jumping off the dock, and the water was so temperate. We loved the large beach area, and enjoyed exploring the lake in the kayaks. Jim was responsive to any needs we had, and quick to reply. We certainly want to return next year!

Excellent summer lake house weekend getaway!

Overall, we are very happy with our stay here. You can’t beat the view and the spot on the lake. You have your own section of the lake and there is a great sand area in the backyard. There are people that walk the beach it’s not technically yours and private but it does feel like your section and it also has a boat dock. It is dog/pet friendly and there is a huge line that extends from one side of the backyard all the way to the other so dogs have free room while leash pretty much of the whole backyard. It doesn’t go quite to the water but it is a very big area and we appreciated they hooked up this line and our dog did too! The neighbors are very nice and the area is generally pretty quiet. The house is pretty rustic with the furniture and decor from the 70s, 80s, 90s so as long as you’re not looking for a upscale modern Lakehouse you should be fine with it. The kitchen appliances are updated but the microwave needs to be replaced it smells very burned inside and there is some rust from previous renters. There is a fire pit in the back and we enjoyed having a fire watching the sunset every night and there is some small wood that was provided to help get the fire started that we appreciated. There is also a kayaks, and a canoe and a float for you to use as well In the morning, the sun is behind the house and it is very cool but in the afternoon the sun is directly going onto the house and in the windows so on a very hot day the house gets very hot so you have to keep the shades shut. There are air conditioners in the two upstairs bedrooms /!: an air conditioner in the downstairs bedroom but not in the main living area where the living area/dining room/kitchen area is so we brought a standing portable AC from upstairs to the downstairs to help with that. Overall, we appreciate the owner didn’t have a week minimum like other places as we are unable to do that with a baby and various other reasons so we are definitely interested in renting here again!

Fantastic Spot

We loved our trip to camp cotter! Jim was so accommodating and communicative, and the beach and location just can’t be best. Boat rental is a must as we had so much fun exploring the different areas of the lake. Will definitely be back.
