Love the private beach - quiet and peaceful area at no-wake Smith Cove. Complete with beach chairs and chaise. Close to Bank of NH Pavillion, Sawyer’s and Ellacoya Barn and Grille. Ceiling fan and AC kept us cool.

Home away from home

this time of year is the start of a busy summer, especially since Bike Week was extended for it's 100th anniversary. Suprisingly, the entire week was very peaceful. The other visitors in the area were very friendly as well. The owners don't bother you on a daily basis. For the most part, they let you know they are there if you need anything, and they are easy to contact if necessary. I loved sitting on the newly built deck to have my morning coffee and do some work before the heat increased. Good thing for air conditioning. Nonetheless, the private beach was my favorite part. Sitting on the dock and watching the boats go by was my second favorite. I will definitely be contacting Bob and his wife again to stay. It was the long awaited relaxations since COVID hit, that I needed to get back into reality.

PROS:It’s a nice cottage, in a nice area. Beach is a short walk. Neighborhood quiet. There is a lot of fun things to do nearby and there is a nice restaurant within walking distance with great views of the lake.CONS: The mattresses on the beds were very firm and beds were squeaky and the pullout couch had a bent frame and was impossible to sleep on. Nobody got a decent nights sleep. I left 3 days early because I was exhausted and sore and couldn’t take another night. It’s says it has AC, it has a unit in master which blew out musty air and only provided cooling to the rest of the cottage if the door was left open.The doors have latch locks and we had a small child my son worried she would lock door and there was no way to get in.The beach is small and surrounded by boats on the right on the left. I wish I had been made aware of these issues before I paid so much for my Vrbo trip.
