About this property

Waterfront Lake Winnipesaukee cabins on private sandy beach with dock

Who wouldn't want to spend a week or two on one of the largest, cleanest most beautiful lakes in NH. The property has 3 cabins, of which two are rented as a pair (the other may at times by occupied by the owner on the weekends). The beautiful beach and grass yard area will provide you the perfect family vacation. Each of the cabins has two bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, bathroom with shower and a screen porch. The nice level lot leads right out to the private sandy beach with no outdoor obstacles such as rocks, stairs or cliffs. Our beach is certainly one of the absolute nicest beaches on the lake. Situated in sandy Melvin Bay, the sand cascades from the beach and into the water as far out as you can walk! The water gradually becomes deeper which is perfect for children, grandparents and everyone in between. So our neighbors can also enjoy their time at the lake, no parties are allowed.

This property is perfect for anyone that is looking for the sun all day since the property faces west. The sun comes up over the trees in the AM and stays with you all day until you have front row seats to a stunning sunset! For our guests who prefer some shade, you may want to bring a beach umbrella as there are few trees along the beach.

Also included is the use of our dock (with prior approval and description of the watercraft you will be docking - dock adequate for boats up to 22'). Use of our canoe, kayaks and pedal-boat (with plenty of life vests on hand) is included. The water is approximately 40" deep at the end of the dock. Water depth cannot be guaranteed. The dock is sturdy and has no problem securing our 22' inboard boat.

There is also a marina with boat rentals just under a mile away!

Why they chose this property

After renting cottages year-after-year on many of the New Hampshire and Maine lakes, our goal was to one day have a lakefront property to call our own. Our dream became a reality in 2017! Having young children, my wife and I were looking for a property to balance our outdoor/lake interests and a safe place to create memories for our family and friends. This lakefront property is PERFECT!

First, Lake Winnipesaukee is one of the largest, cleanest and most beautiful lakes in the area. The abundance of towns and restaurants with public docking also helped to solidify our decision that we needed to be on THIS lake!

Secondly, this beach is certainly one of the absolute nicest beaches on the lake. Situated in sandy Melvin Bay, the sand cascades from the beach and into the water as far out as you can walk! The water gradually becomes deeper which is perfect for our children, our grandparents and everyone in between.

Third, what is a beach vacation without the sun? We have no idea because the property faces west - the sun comes up over the trees in the AM and we get to enjoy it all day until we get to watch the sunset right in front of us (sipping cocktails).

Fourth, we wanted a place to get away from our busy work/city life and experience the greatness that the New Hampshire lakes region has to offer. These rustic 1950's cottages are picture perfect - simple and well maintained....the way a NH lake vacation is supposed to be!

I could go on and on....but because we have three cottages on our property, we are able to provide you the opportunity to come see why we LOVE this property for yourself!!! Please send us a message and we hope you create memories to last a lifetime here as well!
