Nice Stay

Our family stayed for a week, great location close to good restaurants. Nice spot to swim for little kids and/or float. I suggest water shoes. I also suggest taking the kayak and canoes out over the islands.

Wonderful little weekend getaway

This was a very cute little cabin on the water. We really enjoyed the ability to kayak or canoe and spent both nights around the campfire roasting hot dogs and marshmallows. Although we came I. The spring and the water was still a bit cold we all want to come back for a weekend in the summer to really enjoy the lake :)

A perfect getaway

We stayed at this vacation home in Newbury after Christmas and had a perfect getaway!The owner is very responsive and always ready to help us with anything! The neighborhood itself was quiet and charming, offering the ideal retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. It felt like a true escape—calm, tranquil, and surrounded by nature. Whether it was enjoying the crisp winter air or simply taking in the view from the warmth of the home, every moment felt like a chance to unwind. The lake house was impeccably clean and well-maintained, making it feel like a home away from home. It was fully equipped with all the necessities, and we truly didn’t miss a thing during our stay. From the fully equipped kitchen to the cozy living spaces, everything was thoughtfully provided. It was clear that the owners took great pride in ensuring that guests had everything they needed. Our cat also loved the house, enjoying the cozy spaces and peaceful surroundings. Whether lounging by the windows or exploring the house, our furry friend felt right at home. Overall, it was a wonderful and relaxing retreat where both we and our cat could unwind and enjoy the tranquility of nature and I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking peace, natural beauty, and a chance to recharge. Would definitely love to come back!!

Great property, just as advertised. Everything you could need is provided and it is a really nice area. Sitting by the fire was great. Paddling out to the islands was a great deal of fun for the kids. We suggest investing in water shoes as the only caveat, the water area was rocky and a bit of muck as you got out past the dock. Overall great experience with a cordial and easy to contact host.

Great place to stay!

We booked this home to do some skiing at Pat's Peak and Sunappee and it did not disappoint. Dog friendly home with a great picture window overlooking a lake. Got up early to watch the sunrise over the lake. It was fun to watch the ice fishing and the snowmobiling out there as well. Beds were comfortable and the house had everything we needed! Would definitely stay here again!

Great rustic cottage on the lake !!!!

This cottage was exactly what my family and I wanted. On the older side and dated, however the rustic interior was the perfect atmosphere for a ski trip. It was directly on the lake. In the morning we were pleasantly surprised to wake up to see people out ice fishing on the frozen lake in their portable fish huts. At night we witnessed coyotes nearby out on the lake. It was absolutely amazing. Stunning views of the mountain. Ryan our host was wonderful. He responded to us right away with any questions we had. Couldn’t ask for a better host. Extremely professional and friendly!!! Thank you Ryan for a memorable experience. We’re hoping to return in August, so we can enjoy the cottage and lake in the summer. If not then definitely again next January!!! Can’t wait to stay here again!!! Yippee!!!

Broken heater

Wonderful, rustic lakefront property as listed. Not luxurious but cozy and properly cleaned. Host Ryan was very friendly and offered early check in. Beautifully situated on the lake and 10 minute drive from Mt Sunapee. Unfortunately the heating was broken throughout the duration of our stay. The house got very cold into the 50’s. Only a 25 reimbursement was offered, which I felt was too little. This needs to be addressed before the next guest arrives and the next person should confirm with the host that the heating works.

Tranquil Beauty

This house is on a beautiful lake. It is so peaceful and calming. Our dog, Roxy, had her first swim here! We had a great time kayaking and fishing. Caught some very large bass. The lake is so clear. The sunrises and sunsets were amazing! This has been our favorite VRBO stay yet!

Lovely lil (big) lakefront cottage on lake Todd!

Overall it was a great stay, clean and ready for us we just needed to clean the grill and run a load of laundry left in washer and dryer but other than that place was spic and span and had all the things we needed except a lobster pot and and crackers but we made do with a mallet and the two small pots. The cottage is peaceful and quiet and what a view. The kayaks and lake are definitely worth diving into, and be sure to go check out the lil islands and do some fishing, all good! Lots of room to spread out inside and out, we had lots of rain our week so didn’t get on the lake but twice but it was still worth it with the rain because of view of the lake from the big picture widow in the LR, so instead we played Monopoly and Uno and enjoyed catching up on some Netflix. Ryan the owner was very responsive and quick to answer our questions and took care of an issue witt the fridge with a rebate since he couldn’t get the fridge repaired while we were there. Aside from the fridge being noisy and not being cold enough everything else was perfect and we would love to spend more time at this little cottage on Lake Todd in the future!

A special lake

We decided to come back to Lake Todd after many years away. We fully enjoyed Ryan’s cabin as the view is spectacular. The photos are representative of the place. Ryan was always responsive for any questions I had before we arrived. Canoeing, kayaking, fishing and swimming reign supreme. The surrounding towns are quiet but a few good eateries can be found. Hiking is close by. A very relaxing time was had by all.

Tad bit deceiving

We came here to celebrate our anniversary. The place is a good size place, however it is not as large as portrayed. Very good photography. The ceiling tiles are very old, and there are chunks taken out of them. The cabinets are very sticky to the touch in the kitchen; most likely from cooking and grease. This property isn't cheap so I feel that for the money we spent "off season"; it wasn't worth it. The microwave seemed like it needed to be replaced. We had to reach out to the owner to ask about papertowels because the cleaners didn't have a full roll on the spool, and there was none in the areas they stated they were. There was about an inch worth of dish detergent in the bottle. We ran out, but didn't bother asking the owner for this because we already saw the supply cabinet when we had to search for the paper towels...and there was no dish detergent so we had to go out and buy some. The place was clean, just old and outdated. The stone wall outside is lined with pavers, but they're not secure so a couple of times they came out of place, and fell on our dog's paw. There is nothing to do around here, even in the Town center. One restaurant (not open), the ferry dock, and a country store that wasn't open. Not a place for young children, or teenagers at that. The lake was beautiful, and so peacfeul. Nothing bad to say about that at all. The amount per night was too steep for the rental. The owner was super kind, and responsive. It just needs attention.

Cozy lake house, good for a family with kids!

This is a nice little place right on the water. The house itself is dated, but the amenities and furniture are not worn and are comfortable. I dinged one star for cleanliness only because there were cobwebs in many corners and the hot water had a bit of an odor, kind of like a mild campground smell. Otherwise, the place contained a nice array of games and toddler toys, as well as infant/toddler books so my kids were well entertained. I was delightfully surprised to find a range of lifejackets for use with the canoe/kayaks and we were able to take our young children out on the lake, which was a highlight of the trip! It was easy to find the place, plenty of parking space, and the host was very communicative. Plenty of towels, blankets, sheets and a crib available. Short drive to a few restaurants, Mt. Sunapee and towns for activities. Warner had a nice Fall Festival we attended, as well as a fun telephone museum that our kids (and I!) loved. We didn't get a chance to use the firepit but I would stay here again and it would be lovely to sit by the fire and look out on the water.
