Christmas Vacation

We had 11 people stay at the Winnamakee Shore Lodge and there was plenty of room for all of us and more. Great space for large groups, from the large kitchen with center island to the bunkroom for the kids. We were there over Christmas and were able to ice fish right out front. House was clean and ready for us at arrival. Would recommend for any large group.

2023 Christmas Family Vacation

I grew up in the Pequot Lakes area about eleven miles away from this home on a small farm. I have lived in Alabama now for 35 years and the last four years between Christmas and New Year's we have made this trip up North. I bring my whole family, husband, three kids, two daughter-in-laws and six grands. By having such a wonderful home to stay in, we were able to have local family come over during the days and evenings to visit to enable us to see as many local family members as we can. The kids got to go ice fishing and ice skating. First year we haven't had snow to play in but the lake made up for it. They could play/fish all day outside and come in ready for quiet time in the evenings. So much fun to be had by all. The crappie fishing was excellent!!! and they also caught two really nice walleye and a good sized northern. Thanks again for letting my family hang out at your home. We are hoping we can book it again same time next year!!

This beautiful pleased everyone on us

The house was beautiful. Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms and space. We had great weather so we spent most of our time outside or in the water. The owners could not have been nicer. We actually tried to book our stay there for next year however, we have to see if our dates are available. We were truly blessed to be able to stay in this house this year. Again, thank you for sharing you beautiful home with us. Hope to see you next year.

Fun at Ossawinnamakee Lodge

Our family enjoyed the lake. Kids jumped on water trampoline and had fun jumping off into the water. Little ones enjoyed fishing off the dock. Caught lots of little fish. We brought our own boat and pulled kids in our tube chair. Nice lake for skiing and tubing and fishing. Bon fires at night, roasting marshmallows and making s’mores. Bring your own roasting forks as there were only two. Created a small problem as we had six kids. Inside kids had fun with the PAC Man arcade game. Family area was great for watching movies and playing games. Lots of space for everyone. Well equipped kitchen. And easy use of grill. Close to convenience store if you need something you forgot. Also area supported other activities if you need a day away from the lake. All and all a great time!

Beautiful home for large gatherings

This home is enormous! It was perfect for a weekend with friends. Would also be ideal for a large family Christmas. There is a LOT to choose from for entertainment on site, from the books and board games to tabletop shuffleboard, ping-pong and Pac-Man. I wish we'd had another day or two to enjoy everything and hope to return soon. A couple of things I found confusing: (1) there is a lockbox on the door frame and a keypad on the front door - use the keypad; (2) the checkout time is listed as 10 a.m. in the book but 11 a.m. in the app. I recommend reading the "how to" section right away, as it was hot upstairs and cold downstairs. We didn't touch the thermostats but some would have been more comfortable if we'd read the instructions on arrival. Don't count on the second refrigerator for storage as it was out of order. The 10 p.m. quiet time was not an issue for us as it was too cold to be outside. The fireplace in the living room is amazing!! The kitchen space is incredible. If you go off site, I highly recommend Bingo at Manhattan Beach on Saturdays, the food at Moonlite Bay in Crosslake, and the distillery experience at 5Rocks in Brainerd. Honestly, I look forward to going back. :-)
