Rust Pond is a perfect location. The town of Wolfeboro has everything, the pond itself is clean and quiet with no public access. It's only about an hour from the ocean, and there is so much to do in and around Lake Winnipesaukee.
This is a beautiful private location yet close to all the attractions Wolfeboro has to offer.. The family loved the "barn" and Rust Pond. We hope to return soon.
We a wonderful time on Rust Pond in Wolfeboro. This house was incredibly unique, and extremely comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed looking around at all the interesting house features and spent hours in the water on the floats and kayaks. Owner was very responsive to any questions we had.
The Barn was a perfect place to stay. The place was even more than the description. Plenty of room, an amazing Coca Cola machine, lots of games, and water was great! Many days we were the only ones out in the water. Highly recommend the place.
Had an amazing time at this barn. The location was great, where you can just walk 20 yards out the front door and have access to a beautiful body of water. My family and I were skeptical of the name of "Rust Pond", but the water is clear, clean, and beautiful. One of the best vacations, I have been on.
We stayed here for a week with our two children. Rust Pond is gorgeous and right outside the house. Wolfeboro is a short drive down the road. Plenty to do for kids and adults.
House had everything and is just as advertised. Don't hesitate to book.

Perfect Lake House for a visit to Wolfeboro!
My family and I could not have had a better visit to The Barn. The home is the perfect setting for a Lake Vacation and certainly has everything you need for a relaxing and enjoyable time. We were so impressed with the home and its location we were planning next year's visit almost immediately. Most definitely looking forward to our next visit to The Barn and Rust Pond.
We loved our week at The Barn. The location can't be beat. It was wonderful to be right on Rust Pond (which despite the name is really a lake) and to seemingly have it to ourselves on many days and convenient to be so close to town. The house's design is interesting and the kitchen is terrific, but sound does carry through the open architecture so make sure your group all keeps the same hours.
Everything was great and as advertised, highly recommend it. Just be aware, the beds don’t come made and with sheets which for those that are traveling from far it may not be ideal. Host was amazing and responsive and location can’t be beat.
Our week at The Barn was outstanding! We lucked out with beatiful weather which let us really get the most out of Rust Pond and all that The Barn had to offer. We kayaked, fished, swam, and floated. The house exceeded our expectaions and accommodated our family perfectly as we cooked some delicious meals inside and out on the grill, played games, read and simply enjoyed some quality family time with a peaceful and gorgeous view.
The Barn is a truly special property. My friends and I had a great weekend enjoying the surrounding area, as well as the Barn itself with all that it had to offer. Between going out on the pond, playing croquet in the yard, or the many late night games of shuffleboard on the second floor, there was always something to do and enjoy during our stay.
We rented this property because my daughter was getting married nearby . The house was perfect! We loved it . Weather was great, house exactly as described, pond and dock so beautiful . Would love to come back again someday
This property is very well depicted in the VRBO - pictures and writeup. Centrally located to the town of Wolfboro and highway this property is great for being away but not too far away from civilization. The view of Rust Pond was beautiful! My family had a great time - hope to come again! The owners were great to work with for any questions, etc.

Another Great Year at The Barn
Being our second year staying at The Barn we knew what to expect from the home and surroundings and it certainly lived up to our expectations and more! The home is such a cozy well appointed home with a rustic feel. You can’t beat the location right on Rust Pond close to Wolfeboro and all that great town has to offer. Not only would I recommend but hoping to come back for a 3rd year.
Home was beautiful and the lake peaceful. Enjoyed our long fall weekend getaway. Beds were comfortable but very noisy when moving around or getting out. I missed the info on bringing your own bedding, not a fan of that feature. Overall a great vacay.
Everything about our stay at the Barn was perfect and the owners could not have been more gracious and helpful. The house is beautiful and has everything needed to make your vacation flawless. The house is just a few feet away from the calm and very clean pond which provided endless hours of fun fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and swimming for the kids and adults alike. We all had such a fabulous time.
The Barn was the perfect spot for our relaxing lake getaway! The property is well cared for and the owner was prompt in all communications to make sure we had a great time. Kayaking, canoeing, fishing, inflatables, indoor gaming, campfires at night...our family of four enjoyed all The Barn had to offer! Location is excellent - plenty of shade for hot summer days (including on the dock during late afternoons), and a quick drive to Wolfeboro for restaurants and attractions. Highly recommended.
We enjoyed our stay on Rust pond at this beautiful home. The views from the house were stunning and the house had lots of space for our two families to play and relax. We spent hours just sitting by big wood fireplace and enjoying cooking in the kitchen. A quick 5 minute drive from downtown Wolfeboro and an hour drive to North Conway. Thank you Christopher & family!
We came to New England because Texas just doesn’t bother with Autumn. We had perfect weather and foliage. The Barn was a great base of operations- so close to the lakes, and covered bridges, and cute villages.
Rust Pond is beautiful and peaceful. The fireplace and soaring ceilings are are stunning. We loved staying here and hope to come back to get our Fall fix next October.
The Barn on Rust Pond was a fantastic getaway for my husband and I. The house was meticulously clean, the property in a fantastic location, and the homeowner super easy to communicate with. There is an energy about this property that truly put my soul at ease - I felt relaxed and at home. From watching the sun rise over Rust Pond, to happy hour on the dock hearing the call of the loons, every moment was beautiful. I honestly feel lucky to have had the opportunity to stay here and will absolutely be going back in the future!

Lakefront perfection
The Barn has everything you're looking for in a lakefront home! The house is immaculate and includes many of the amenities you are used to having at home - big kitchen with an incredible six burner stove, washer /dryer and TV. The outside seating is wonderful and my family loved sitting around the fire pit roasting marshmallows and looking out at the lake. The water is pristine for swimming and I highly recommend taking advantage of the kayak and canoe available to renters.

Cozy and convenient to town, great kitchen!
My siblings and I stayed at The Barn on Rust Pond for five nights this past week. It is a super cool house, with comfortable spaces to enjoy each other’s company on three different levels. We used the canoe to paddle around the lake one afternoon, and the leaves were stunning. The close proximity to town made shopping and dining out a breeze. Best of all was the beautiful kitchen. We took turns cooking meals while staying cozy and warm while it was raining. I would definitely recommend this home to friends and family for future visits!
