Enjoy nature and the slower pace from a comfortable home! Guests have shared many positive reviews of how peaceful the property is, and how secluded it feels. The property is not a good fit for someone that is not comfortable with an older home and its nuances. It’s a rustic, low-key , 50-year old lakefront home surrounded by trees, chipmunks, insects, etc. It's a well-loved place enjoyed by many families--some of the same families over the years because it's relatively upgraded, clean, and has great, private waterfront. It's still a campy NH place. The kitchen is open concept but on the smaller side with smaller stovetop and frig (bar frig downstairs). If you are seeking a different experience, or have questions, please let us know. Owner is responsive, reasonable and courteous, but high-maintenance guests are not a good fit.
