What a great getaway

Wonderful property. The home was very clean and tidy with all the amenities we needed. A large lawn to let the kids and dogs run around, and a wonderful view of the lake from the deck for my husband and I to relax and take it all in. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful weekend getaway

Our family had a wonderful stay at this property. It's clean, modern interior, and the balconies are in great shape. Probably the best view we've had from a rental. We would certainly stay again.

Property just as described. Excellent views, house had everything necessary & then some. Communication was great & the early check in was much appreciated given our 2nd day was a washout weather-wise. Would definitely recommend

Very comfortable stay

We had a lovely stay in Carolyn's house. It is comfortable and pretty, spacious, with a lot of natural light. The views of the lake are stunning and makes the deck a fantastic place for dinner/breakfast. There are toys and board games for the little ones, which was great as we were travelling with children. Communication with the host was pleasant and easy and we felt very welcome.

Incredible Views!!

Carolyn’s place was perfect for our vacation to Gilford, NH. The house was clean and exactly as expected! Rebecca met us shortly after our arrival and was wonderful as well. I would recommend this home and would definitely stay here again! My only “advice” is to be careful with the hot water - it can get extremely hot!

Great Labor day weekend

The location is perfect, we attended a concert at nearby Bank of New Hampshire pavilion a short 10 minute drive, the beach is 5 minutes away and Gunstock right down the road. Tremendous views from the various decks. Caroline and her sister could not have been more accommodating. Great time

Beautiful Home and beautiful view.

This was a great rental, the owner and caretaker are awesome! We will be going back! My only complaint is the beds are a little uncomfortable and the deck furniture too. Just needs updating . everything else was PERFECT!! worst case I bring a mattress topper! The road in is a little scary on a motorcycle but we found the back way. Worth the tight turns.

Wonderful Get Away!

We had a fantastic 4 night stay with close friends! This house was truly beautiful with wonderful amenities and just breathtaking views of Lake Winnipesaukee! It was well located in a quiet area, yet close by to shopping, restaurants and the Bank of NH Pavilion, where we had concert tickets to a great show. Carolyn was very easy to communicate with from the start and made sure we had everything we needed. Rebecca welcomed us upon arrival and suggested some great restaurants nearby! Great stay, we would definitely return! Thank you very much!

This house was perfect for my sons, daughter in laws and grandchildren. The house was very clean and the lay out is perfect. We enjoyed the deck every morning and night. The private beach was wonderful. Carolyn was a gem to work with. Rebecca her assistant was there in minutes when we needed her. Thank you so much ~ we will be back. Peggy

This was the perfect house for us! Three couples each looking for quiet time and gathering time! It was absolutely beautiful, well maintained and so comfortable and peaceful. We appreciated the close proximity to Gunstock and restaurants, and the water. The view was priceless! Thank you Carolyn for your welcoming nature and genuine interest in this being a pleasurable time! We want to come back!!

About the host

Host profile image
I am a Maine native with relatives in the Gilford NH region.
For an outdoor enthusiast, this house is a dream come true! I enjoy several weeks a year here.

Why they chose this property

The views are stunning, just sitting on the deck and looking at the lake and hearing the sounds of nature made me fall for the property. I felt like this house had everything I was looking for, open living room with lots of windows, very large decks for entertaining and a spacious yard with beautiful flowers. I love the feel of the town of Gilford it has a wonderful New England charm.

What makes this property unique

The location of this house is so ideal, in just minutes you could be enjoying the many hiking trails, relaxing at a beach with beautiful views or taking in a concert at Meadowbrook. When you are at the house you feel like you are in a quiet paradise.
