We thoroughly enjoyed our stay for Labor Day weekend. John and Charlotte were welcoming and showed us around the property and lake area. We were able to hang out on the lake, with use of the kayaks, paddle boats and large floating mat to just relax. The highlight was bringing our morning coffee down to the water and watching a family of loons feeding. The unit had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable. We would love to return again!!

Very nice cabin..It advertised a row boat,kayaks and canoe..the canoe was not usable,the two person kayak had a hole,the row boat had no oar locks so it could not be used as a rowboat. There were two paddle boats which were very hard to paddle and steer.The hosts were very nice and the other guests were personable.

Peaceful place

It was a last-minute vacation. I was thinking about taking a few days off and wanted to find a peaceful place by the water. This place was perfect! There wasn’t any air conditioning, but that actually made me feel even more connected to nature, exactly what I was looking for. The owners were very kind, and I truly enjoyed my stay. I’ll definitely be coming back at the end of the summer! ☀️😊Thank you!!

Great Time At Stinson Lake!

We really enjoyed the cabin, it had everything we needed. The view from the front porch of the cabin is breathtaking. Stinson lake was warm and very clean. We had fun jumping off the dock and using the paddleboards. We had several delicious meals at nearby restaurants. This area has a lot to offer. Hopefully we will get to return next summer!

Beautiful Lakeview Getaway

The view from the sunroom was impeccable and I spent many hours reading there. The cottage had many windows and skylight for a light and airy feeling. However, communication with the host was not the easiest as none of the VRBO messages were answered through the app before arrival (only email yielded some terse answers) and despite multiple requests about linens for the roll away cot they were never provided. Additionally it took multiple requests to have the rather soiled propane grill cleaned, the pilot on the gas stove went out repeatedly, and the cottage had received a cursory cleaning prior to checkin (spiders and hair in the shower, cherry under the kitchen table, hair bunnies on the couch surface). The toilet tank also sweats onto the floor which causes a mild odor from dampness. Linens provided were threadbare for towels in bath and kitchen. Kitchen tools did not include anything for baking or barbecuing but the MCM plates and platters were a pleasure. The road between the cottage and the lake is busier than ever with speeding construction traffic so take that into account with children and pets. Enjoyed our time, but the cottage needed a more thorough cleaning and improved comms.

Misled and unfinished

The property setting and lake view is spectacular. We have no problem staying in a "rustic" setting. We do have a problem when rustic is an excuse for unfinished and not clean. Electrical was the first issue with open switch boxes and missing light bulbs. Poor ground maintains and a dirty shower curtain. The lid for the pots and pans had grease still on it. We left a day early and never looked back. Also, no beach existed. If you are looking for a lake setting this place is perfect as long as you can put up with sub par accommodations.

Quiet comfortable lodging

Clean, comfortable lodging. Comfortable beds, some outlet covers missing, good place to crash at the end of the day. Did not use the lake across the street but very much enjoyed the foliage and view. A bit out of the way requiring extra driving to other NH sites. Good valu.

The cottage was a lovely place to get away from the heat ( no air conditioning needed) and spend time in nature, enjoying the canoe, kayaks and pontoon ride courtesy of our hosts. If you like simple and easy this is a great place to land

Lakehouse retreat

Beautiful location with lake views. Very peaceful and relaxing area. Host was friendly and accommodating. Paddle boats and kayaks were available for use. Location was hard to find at first and service is non existent in this area so be prepared! Come prepared to enjoy the wilderness and stock up on food and groceries before your trip! Overall we enjoyed our stay in this charming classic cabin.

Beautiful Lake

The lake is beautiful. It is crystal clear, great for swimming and floating, child friendly, and there were plenty of shared kayaks, paddle boats, and other water toys to keep everyone occupied. The property owner was funny and welcoming. The cabin is clean and comfortable. We will be returning next year. I definitely recommend.

Little Cabin beautiful view

The little cabin was adorable, and the view is awesome. We enjoyed our stay there. Very quiet and peaceful even during bike week. Would have been nice to have a TV on the rainy day but u still can't hold it against the place. Owners were very nice.
