This property was perfect for my family. It is located right on Shaw's pond, so my sons were able to walk out the door to fish. There was a play room for thw little ones, and ample room for all our stuff.

We loved this property. It was very clean and exactly as described. The back yard and waterfront area was extremely private and quiet even though the home is located off of a busier “highway”. Be aware this isn’t a home in a private neighborhood but honestly you would never know it when in the backyard. We have 3 kids, the youngest being 3 and kept an eye on them going in/out of the house but the home is set far enough back from the road that I didn’t feel concerned with the busy road in front. There are neighbors that are close by however neither were occupied during our week, one doesn’t have a dock and the other has a very small one so I can’t imagine even if they are in their homes that it would impact the feeling of being alone while floating on the water or playing on the floating dock. The house has everything you need and while it is an updated older home, it felt very comfortable and extremely clean and well taken care of (I am a germophobe and felt more than fine with the home). It’s an 8 min drive door to door to wolfboro which we visited daily for ice cream, a meal out or to shop. They’re are some great cafes and the YumYum Shop for baked goods/ice cream and Bailey’s Bubbles (cash only) are a must!! Bring some sweats for evenings as they get cooler on the water but the fire pit with s’mores and wine is a perfect way to end the day. Owners were extremely responsive, recommend this for a family stay!!

My husband, and kids (15 & 13) stayed a week and felt right at home from the moment we arrived! The house was clean, comfortable and even had two desks if you need dedicated space to get some work done. We enjoyed ALL of the outdoor amenities which were in great condition - grill, picnic tables, outdoor couch, lounge chairs, porch house with reading chair and card table, fire pit, kayaks and row boats. The small lake is so peaceful without constant boat traffic and jet skis. Rob & Gevry were responsive to all of my questions during our stay. We hope to return one day!

Family friendly home with a nice backyard. The pond was quiet, serene and peaceful. I caught 2 Bass, one large mouth about 4 lbs. which made my vacation even more special. Enjoyed being close enough to Wolfeboro for shopping but far enough away from the noise and traffic.

The Lakehouse was the perfect summer getaway for our family (2 adults and 4 teens). The house was so clean and had everything we needed. We made a quick trip to the market in Wolfboro and made most meals at the house. It is perfectly situated on the lake. The lake itself was incredible, even on rainy days we could enjoy the view from the house or the boathouse. Having access to the kayaks and rowboat was great. We could explore the pond or fish or both. The water was perfect, even in early summer it was cool but not cold and very clear. Thank you Gevry & Rob!!!

We had a wonderful week at this house. Weather was great. The owners keep the house clean and well stocked and didn't have to worry about bringing sheets and towels. Fishing was great and took the kayaks out on several occasions. Beautiful location and great views from the house. Close to Wolfeboro and NH attractions. Would definitely come back here again.

A week of swimming, kayaking and fishing. The pond is very peaceful and the house waterfront makes it really easy to relax, read a book or float on a raft. Gevry & Rob were helpful and responsive. The house was clean and great location to shops, restaurants and fun day excursions (e.g., Mt. Washington, North Conway, The Lost River Gorge & Boulder Caves). We would highly recommend as a great family choice.

Great stay. The waterfront area is set up perfectly for relaxing, swimming and fishing. The house had everything we needed. There was a meteor shower the end of our week there and the view from the dock was awesome. Hope to return next year.
