About this property

Cute House, Close to Lake Winnipesaukee, Gunstock, Pavilion, Dogs welcome!

Ski Gunstock, snowshoe, cross country, Close to winter sports, great restaurants perfect get away! Dogs welcome, fenced and gated yard, you must tell me if you are bringing a pet and the breed, and if you are bringing more then one. Fire pit.
My place is close to Lake Winnipesaukee, Gunstock, Weirs Beach, restaurants and dining, the beach, and family-friendly activities. . My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, and furry friends (pets).
We just updated this unit, with new flooring, paint, new cabinets, sink, counter and furniture. It has a sleep sofa too!!! Close to all area attractions. You can walk to Bank Of NH Pavilion if you are going to a concert and you do not want to drive. Its about 1 mile down the road.

We had a wonderful stay at Susan’s place. Susan was excellent at communicating and more then accommodating. The place was clean, looked like the pictures, and had great amenities such as the grill and fire pit. The house is also in a great location with lots to do. We especially enjoyed the Bank of NH Pavilion for a concert, Weirs Drive-In theatre, and heading over to Meredith. Definitely recommend staying here!

Cozy and charming cottage

Everything about this day was wonderful. From the communication at the time of booking regarding our dog to the open line of communication during our travel to New Hampshire. Susan was very quick to respond to any inquiries and also very helpful with suggestions of places to go and other Insider secrets. The cottage itself is charming and cozy. Just enough room for my husband and I with our small dogs. One bedroom with a comfortable bed and adequate air conditioning. A galley style kitchen with everything we needed including a dorm size refrigerator and freezer. A generous living room with a very comfortable couch and Fire TV. A small bathroom with a stand-up shower that had provided shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Clean soft towels. Everything that we could need was at our fingertips. It was clean. It was comfortable and it was so convenient to everywhere we wanted to go including Weir's Beach, Meredith and the state parks. Can't say enough about our hosts and would definitely stay here or one of their other properties again.

Small

Its small, needs better cleaning and needs updating. Online it said it was a house and updated. It was not updated and its not a house. Its a cottage, smaller than it looks online and no grass in the enclosed yard. There was no where to sit outside under cover from rain or the sun. I found and old bone under the couch. It was very old so that tells me the cleaner never moves the couch to sweep or vacuum under it. The mirror in the livingroom was very dirty. I was gonna clean it but decided not to. We paid for a week and left half way through the vacation. We weren't comfortable, not much to do with our dogs so we left. We spent the rest of our vacation at home, in our pool and went to dinner a coupke time and played cards. The owners are very nice people and very attentive. We'll do day trips from now on.

Cozy little place

This cozy little place is just as described. We enjoyed this home base for our week long stay. Its in a quiet neighborhood. It’s a short and easy drive to area attractions. If you go in winter, don’t miss Franconia Notch—even if you’re not skiing!

With so many trees, felt like I was camping. It was not fancy, but quite comfortable, and everything you could need was made available by Susan who checked in each day to make sure everything was okay. Dogs are welcome and the fenced yard is great. The neighborhood was friendly. Thanks!
