We had a wonderful lake vacation with our two dogs just steps away from gorgeous Squam Lake. The beautiful home is very welcoming and a great place to relax and just enjoy life. Wonderful and knowledgeable host. A perfect place to spend a week of downtime, swimming, sunbathing, puzzles, fires on chilly evenings, home cooked meals. The dogs loved spending time up there and we hope to do it again.

Wonderful Home on Squam - Can't wait to Return

We had an Amazing Stay at this very special home on Squam Lake. It was a winter trip, and it was a real treat relaxing by the wood fireplace every evening. We traveled with another family, an there was plenty of space for everyone. We look forward to staying here again, and to enjoying a summer visit.

Wonderful property, location and experience

We've stayed in rental properties throughout the country. This one checks all the boxes...the lake is outstanding with all the islands and small coves and the location is great for really enjoying the New Hampshire experience...wonderful hiking in all directions. And the property is quite isolated and quiet. This property is superior and our stay was excellent.

Peaceful Retreat at Loon Watch

This property was perfect for our end of summer family getaway. The lake and mountain views were a treat to wake up to. The loons were very vocal during our stay and we loved sitting out on the very spacious dock listening to them in the evenings. There is a small sandy beach on the property which was perfect for our young children. The quiet dirt road was great for walks and runs. Highly recommend Loon Watch!

2019 Squam Lake - Loon Watch

Our family has been spending two weeks every year at Squam. This is our second stay at Loon Watch and each family member requested that I get our reservation in early to stay again for the summer of 2020. It’s a beautiful home, well cared for, great location, quiet and peaceful. We wish that our stay could be the entire summer. Boating, skiing, tubing, kayaking, some fishing, relaxing each morning on the dock, hiking, everything our family enjoys is available. The list of activities could go on. Our two grandchildren enjoyed the private ‘beach’ for play and floating. The oldest grandson had his first experience tubing. Working to indoctrinate them to lake life. Our stay was wonderful.

One of the most beautiful places on earth..

This was my second stay at Loon Watch with extended family. It's hard to overstate the beauty and tranquility of the house and spot on the lake. Lovely days swimming, hiking, reading, and lots of evenings sitting on the dock. Ashley is easy to communicate with and everything with the house was fantastic. We hope to return!

Peaceful and Magical

Loon watch was such a beautiful forested property with so much charm and history behind it. Despite the fact that its been in the family for many generations the home is well appointed with all the amenities that make for a comfortable and convenient stay. Loved the scenic location on Squam Lake away from the main roads so it made for a peaceful and quiet retreat for the whole family. Built so many good memories for us we would definitely do it again one day. Thank you Ashley for the hospitality and making it available for us.

A slice of paradise!

I was fortunate to stay at Loon Watch with my extended family for several weeks in August. We had the most wonderful time at this magical spot. The views are breathtaking and it's a perfect spot at the lake for swimming, kayaking and sailing. Stores and markets are close by (much closer than if you were staying on the Holderness side)The kitchen is extremely well-stocked for avid cooks, we were able to work remotely using a wi-fi extender, and the owners and property manager are lovely to interact with. Thanks to this family for sharing their gem with us! We hope to be able to return.
