If you're looking for a quiet place to stay that is fairly close to the Bank of NH Pavillion this is a great option. We enjoyed being able to go swimming and spend time on the screened in porch. Only thing I would say is that if you plan to cook bring your own seasonings; that includes salt and pepper.

This cabin was exactly what we were looking for so we could enjoy a fun race weekend at New Hampshire Motor Speedway! Being just minutes from the track made it easy to attend all the events while still having a personal and quiet place to stay at the end of a long day. It is clean and in a beautiful, quaint neighborhood with a sliver of a view of Shellcamp Pond which is just a short walk away. We cannot recommend this property enough for anyone who is attending races at NHMS, events in Concord or Laconia, or outdoor enthusiasts who wish to enjoy the beautiful natural bounty the region has to offer.

Very nice camp on a small lake. It’s about a 20 minute drive to the Bank of NH venue. Josh was great at communicating and easy to reach for questions. Our group had 2 couples.

Short stay

We only stayed for a night, we had tickets to a show in Gilford. We got there right at 3:00, the check in instructions were specific and simple. The cabin itself was spotless and welcoming. The welcome basket when we walked in was a great touch.Loved the rotary phone! This will definitely be the first place we check availability next year!

Good stay but...

We had a good time in NH! The cottage was very clean, the living area is very spacious, and everything close to a nice lake! Here are few things that we liked a bit less : - The back of the couch was broken - Many dishes were dirty, and the kitchen lacked of few basic things (cutting board, water kettle, non stick pan for eggs, etc.) - Sleeps 5 but w chairs on the table inside

Thank you Jean Michel for staying at our camp. The couch is not broken as it is designed to be against a wall for support. I am not sure if you moved the couch away from the wall it was set up on. The camp is set up to sleep 4-5 people with a table and 4 chairs on the 3 season porch along with a small table with 2 chairs in the kitchen. Thank you for the recommendations to the kitchen. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. Josh and Melisa
