Sharon's cottage exceeded our expectations in nearly every way. The property is exactly as advertised - a beautiful, well-designed home that strikes the perfect balance between comfort and style. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, making our stay incredibly comfortable and relaxing.The location is fantastic, with easy walking distance to all of Meredith's charming shops, restaurants, and attractions. We loved being able to explore the town on foot and truly experience everything this lovely New Hampshire community has to offer.Sharon herself is an exceptional host who goes above and beyond. Her communication was prompt and helpful throughout our stay, and we were delighted to find homemade baked goods waiting for us upon arrival - such a thoughtful welcome touch that really set the tone for our visit.The only minor drawback is the cottage's proximity to a busy road that sees frequent motorcycle traffic, which can be noticeable at times. However, this small issue didn't significantly impact our overall enjoyment of the stay.We would absolutely recommend Sharon's cottage to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-appointed home base for exploring Meredith and the Lake Winnipesaukee region. Her attention to detail as a host and the quality of the property make this a standout rental.

A beautiful modern home. The kitchen was supplied with all we needed and welcomed us with brownies, salt water taffy and dog bones. Although it is located on a main street, it was a perfect little get a way home. Cute back yard and the landscaping and flower boxes added to the home. Fresh flowers were in all the rooms which was a lovely touch. The bathrooms were large and showers had great rain sprays. The communication with the owner was great! Answered questions promptly. We were there to attend a wedding so we did not take advantage of all the attractions nearby. Wished we thought to stay longer to do this. We would definitely return if we are the area again!

Very good

It was a great quiet place. The backyard is very excellent for my toddler. We made BBQ while playing music and nobody complained. We found almost everything we needed including baby high chair. I just wish the beds were a little bigger. The house is right in the town there are so many stores nearby. For instance, Hannaford is 3 minutes drive. The restaurant is just walkable with a nice view. The location of this house our expectations!

Beautiful home!

This home is beautiful with extreme attention to detail and comfort. The host was exceptional! She called me personally before my stay to talk about the house and area, providing great recommendations for activities and dining options. This is also included in the check in instructions but felt so much more personal to speak directly with her. We traveled to Meredith for a ski trip at Gunstock and this home is definitely a must for your next trip!

Weekend skiing getaway

My teenage daughter and I had a wonderful stay at this adorable Meredith cottage. The property was meticulously clean and was exactly what we were anticipating based on the description and the pictures. We came up for a quick weekend Gunstock ski adventure and had a great time sitting in the cozy living area in front of the gas fireplace and loved the cottage’s central location. Sharon was wonderful. She was very fast to respond to any questions and gave us several great recommendations for places to eat. We recommend George’s diner for breakfast and we had a wonderful dinner at Lago!We look forward to making this a yearly trip!Katharin and Abby

Its amazing to walk everywhere in downtown Meredith. you can walk to the Library, grocery, post office, So many coffee shops, restaurants, boutiques, book stores and so much more right outside your doorstep and watch the fireworks from your porch!
