This is our second time staying at this beautiful spot on Great East lake. We're looking forward to returning next year. Audrey was lovely to work with, and her home is welcoming and warm. If you can get book some time there, I highly recommend this property (Just don't try to take ours, lol!).

Located on a perfect spot on the lake. Clear water. Plenty of room to dock my 21 foot boat. Clean and included just about everything you’d need to prepare great meals. Friendly neighbors. A huge yard considering lakefront properties are usually on a postage stamp sized lot. All in all, our vacation was perfect.

The boathouse was just what we needed and as we expected. The attention to details stands out. All the little extras make this just like home. It was a perfect location and exceptionally clean. Would definitely recommend and plan to stay again, thank you!

Overall, this was a fabulous chance to try out the Lake House Life. This place was picture postcard perfect, with a wide shoreline yard on Great East Lake and a deck and breakwater just feet above the water. Our host agreed to an early arrival for us on Friday, which allowed my wife and I a chance to relax and get out on the calm waters of the lake in the canoe before our son arrived. The wind picked up on Saturday, so we mostly played games and relaxed inside, and went out for dinner at the Poor People's Pub in Sanbornville. The cabin was clean and fresh, with modern amenities. We had a great time and would stay there again!

This property is absolutely stunning! The views from every window are wonderful. The boathouse was very clean and had everything we needed for a very relaxing stay. Audrey was available for questions and left great details on how everything works-. We hope to return and stay longer.

The Boathouse worked out perfectly for my husband, daughter and 15 yr old granddaughter. We appreciated the fully stocked kitchen, flannel sheets on the king bed and electric blankets on the twin beds! Perfect for those chilly nights. Dining area is great spot for having coffee overlooking the lake. Such a cute and cozy place to spend a getaway week. Very quiet and lovely setting.
We hope to return next year! Owner was very responsive with questions. Great rental! Thank you!

Relaxing in beautiful nature
We love this property so much, this is the second time staying there. The lake is so clean and not busy with tons of boat traffic. We are forced to slow down, relax, and enjoy nature and each other. Spectacular sunsets, board games in the wonderful dining room, and fishing off the dock and in kayaks. The loons are plentiful, and we were able to spy a few pretty rare species for this area.

My husband and I had a wonderfully peaceful stay at the Boathouse. The location of this cottage is outstanding- it is right on the lake with an overhanging deck onto crystal clear water! The home is located at the end of a long unpaved driveway. We arrived late at night and had some difficulty finding the home as there is no street lighting. Audrey was immediately available by phone to help guide us. While neighbors' homes can be seen from the wraparound deck, they are far enough that the home feels very private but not isolated. The home is as described in the listing. It has rustic cottage charm with some updates for comfort. The kitchen is well stocked with cutlery, dishes, appliances, and even condiments. The Wifi speed was reasonable for two devices although my husband had some difficulty uploading videos. There are enough beds to accommodate a family of 4 but the small single bathroom for the entire home could pose a challenge. The multiple levels as pointed out by other reviewers adds to the charm of the home. We had a memorable stay and highly recommend this quintessential New England waterfront cottage..

Comfortable and Quiet
Had a relaxing and quiet stay at this clean, comfortable and well equipped cottage on a picturesque part of the lake. The fishing was good and the kayaking fantastic. The weather was extremely cooperative for this late in the season and remained unusually mild. The rental process was seamless with no concerns or issues at all about the property.
My stay here was a perfect way to end the season.

Literally the BEST vacation of my life!
It's killing me to write this review, because I want to keep this place a secret!! My husband, our older teen and I, stayed for a glorious two weeks! The home was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. The crystal clear water, and the quiet cove made the experience magical. The neighbors were lovely, and Audrey was a pleasure to work with. I will be saying extra prayers that we get to return! You will not be disappointed in this cozy multilevel home.

Weather was not great, but that didn’t stop us from having a wonderful time. Amazing spot right on this crystal clear lake. Dining room table was perfect for family games while looking out across beautiful Great East Lake. Highly recommend!

Peaceful vacation
Every year, we rent a different place on a different body of water. We think we found our favorite! Clean, quiet, and restful. Gorgeous sunsets from the dock and all of the windows.
The lake is quiet and so so clean. Our son spent hours just throwing a ball with his friend in the shallow water. We kayaked, read, and swam all week. It was perfection.

The house and location are beautiful , so nice being right on the water. Appreciated dock space for our boat, and that kayaks and paddle board are available for use.

Enjoyable stay.
The boat house was beautiful and being literally, right on the water, was incredible! Sunsets, such awesome colors every night. Was unusually hot at the beginning of the week, so air conditioning would have been great, but the stay was still peaceful and wonderful. Twin bed mattresses could use an upgrade, but room was fantastic with the window and sounds of the water lapping. Great place that I'd highly recommend.

Breathtaking Location in Charming Lake House
The Lake House is even more charming than it appears in photographs. With water views from all windows, beautiful furnishings, quaint boathouse feel and raftered ceilings in the main part of the house, the house has an old world feel but with all modern conveniences. The kitchen is well equipped, and the living room is cozy and comfortable. We are leaving with the intention of buying the exact same mattress that is on the bed here. So comfortable!

A unique, special house. We wanted something as close to the water as possible in which two people would feel cozy. At 1000 square feet. the design is terrific - water views from every room and we felt we had plenty of room. High quality, beautiful, comfortable furniture. Great East Lake is gorgeous, crystal clear, and shallow near the property for easy entry when we went canoeing. Audrey was very responsive when we needed her. Highly recommend this property!

Our vacation was sooo great! I almost don’t want the word to get out about this property. It is perfect for a couple that wants to enjoy a quiet, special spot on the most beautiful lake I have ever seen! 😊

Perfect lakefront relaxation
Super clean and roomy. Stocked with everything you might need to make your week a pleasant one. The views are incredible and the lake is pristine and crystal clear. Lots of privacy.
We enjoyed using the canoe . The deck on the water was great for viewing sunsets.
The only reason for 4 stars for accuracy of online listing is: it wasn’t clear that the house has four levels. So, lots of stairs for anyone with mobility issues.
All in all, a wonderful rental experience and we are grateful to the owners for sharing their little piece of paradise.

Loved it!
We had a wonderful time at this property. The home is clean and lovely but small, really not appropriate for more than 4 people. It was just me, my husband and 10 yr old daughter so it was perfect for us. The lake is clean and their waterfront is shallow and sandy which makes it great for swimming. I highly recommend.

Amazing Sun Sets
My wife, two sons (10 &12) had an amazing week. The house is very clean and looks newly renovated. The lake is crystal clear and the sandy beach was perfect. It was very warm, 95 degrees, so bring a couple of fans as the house does not have AC. We had the best evenings sitting Lake side eating dinner and looking at the comet. The mornings were peaceful and a great place for coffee and breakfast. Overall a great week for the family.

Wonderful setting on Great East Lake
The Boat House cottage sits right on the water’s edge on crystal clear Great East Lake. The house is comfortable and spacious despite it’s small size. The kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed. The swimming area is clean and private with gradual deepening. We rented a boat from a nearby by marina and docked it safely for the week near the cottage. The owners are pleasant, easy to deal with and readily answered all our questions before our arrival.
