Lovely waterfront cottage - quiet and peaceful. House was well appointed and very comfortable. Hosts were thoughtful and attentive while still leaving us to enjoy our solitude. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Look forward to returning.

Our family loved our time at Campbellot. It was the perfect location for our end of summer get away. This was our first time staying on Rust Pond which is perfect for swimming. Just a few miles from town, we enjoyed spending mornings on the walking trail and browsing the shops in town. Once the heat of the day kicked in we were more than happy to spend the remainder of the day back at Rust Pond either swimming or boating on the available kayaks, paddle boards, or canoe. Plenty of options for everyone. Evenings were spent at the camp fire, or in town for the concert in the park or ice cream at the Yum Yum shop or Bailey's Bubble. We never seem to have enough days in Wolfeboro, always a favorite destination for the entire family.

This was a perfect lake cabin and vacation! We enjoyed swimming, fishing and making s’mores in the firepit. The cabin was comfortable and a good size for the 5 of us. We hope to visit again soon!

Campbellot on Rust Pond has everything going for it: waterside with a dock; peaceful and quiet with little boat traffic and clean, clear water. Enough water toys to keep you busy if you don't want to just float away the day (like me).
The house has everthing you need with enough space to not to be on top of each other. So much time on the deck watching the loons, having morning coffee, eating meals and lounging in the sunshine. loved being so close to downtown Wolfeboro and even Alton Bay.
Elaine is an excellent host and very respponsive to any questions or concerns.
Highly recommend this property and hope there is an opening next year for another stay.

Our family spent three days at Cambellot and cannot recommend it more. The house has everything you need, from large rooms, comfortable beds, stocked kitchen, updated bathrooms, good Wi-Fi, and a large selection of board games for family fun. We requested for linens and towels to be provided and they provided more than enough. The best part of Campbellot is it’s location on beautiful Rust Pond. We spent hours using the provided canoe and boats and life jackets out on Rust Pond. It was quiet and peaceful and not crowded at all and the water was comfortable for swimming. We would return to Campbellot anytime. We had a wonderful stay and could have stayed longer.

Had a great time at the lake. Property was as expected. Five stars for having coffee on hand upon arrival. Well stocked kitchen. Grill was perfect. Comms with the owner couldn't be better. Only wish the fish were biting more.
Thanks for the opportunity to stay at your house. Surely on our list of places to stay if back in the area.

What a great place to stay for bike week! We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing by the lake with our friends. The house was nice and cozy, plenty of room for everyone. Great location, close to Alton Bay (one of our favorite destinations on the bikes), Weirs, and Laconia HD. Definitely would stay here again.

The perfect location for a family getaway. Comfortably held 2 small children, 2 dogs, and 4-5 adults both inside and outside. We thoroughly enjoyed fishing, grilling, canoeing, and more. Felt like an escape to nature while being conveniently located close to restaurants, shops, grocery stores....anything you could need. Thank you, Elaine!

Another amazing year at beautiful Rust Pond. The weather was perfect and the fishing was even better. Wolfeboro seems to be recovering from COVID and businesses are back open. We have been coming here for 21 years and will continue to come here for another 21. This is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature.

Well worth the money. Stayed for a long weekend bc of my Brother’s wedding. No issues, everything was neat and tidy, labeled and accessible. Only strange occurrence was on one of the days, someone was walking around the property looking into the windows and seeing if doors were locked. I had my pistol so I wasn’t too worried but my family found it strange and off putting.

Beautiful spot on the shady side of the pond. Great sleeping. Owner came on first night to deliver some cleaning supplies and bath matts - but we think also to check us out. Which is totally fine. She gave us a good rec for a restaurant in town. Unfortunately she and one of the neighbors used the property as a cut through that evening while my husband was reading late at night and stuck their faces into the screen to say hello and scared the hell out of him. The owners are right next door All in all we had a good time though. Everything is very organized with notes everywhere.

Perfect long weekend
We visited Campbellot last week for a long weekend. We were a group of seven (ages ranging from mid-20s to early 60s). It checked every box - amazing outdoor living space with water views, cozy inside space with enough seating for everyone, and rustic and woodsy yet close to downtown Wolfeboro where we enjoyed some shopping and coffee. We loved reading on the deck, boating in Rust Pond, hiking nearby, grilling, and playing games. We hope to come back for another stay!

Perfect spot for a weekend getaway in the fall. Feels like you are in the nature of NH but downtown Wolfeboro is only a few minutes down the road if you want. Would definitely stay here again.

Visiting family in the area and wanted a place of our own to relax and take in the beauty of Rust Pond and Wolfeboro, NH. We were pleasantlty surprised by how accurate the listing is and the little unexpected extra touches left by the owners. like the lovely hand written note welcoming us. The location of the house gives you spectatular views of the pond and the changing color of the fall leaves. The weather was a little cold to get in the water, but if we had, the owners had kayaks, small boat, paddles, fishing poles and much more. There is a side grassey area that would be great for a family game of football, kick ball, volley ball, soccer, etc. The kitchen was well equipped. Thank you for the joy and delight of staying at such a lovely spot. Exceptional in every way! We hope to visit again.

At the last minute, my husband and I (who organized this get-away for family and two old friends) were unable to go. The rest of our party went without us, so this is a second-hand report. In short, they had a marvelous time. They said the hosts had thought of everything, and the house was beautiful and well- stocked in every way, including with media options--a good thing since there were some rainy days. They loved the location and the views over the pond. Their only "complaint," if it can be called that, was the number of stairs (we are all 65-plus), which of course we could have gathered from the photos/description. My husband and I--who are pretty good with stairs--hope to try again for next year.

Great location
This was a great house for our week of vacation. The location was perfect- tucked away in a very peaceful area, but only a little more than 5 minutes from downtown Wolfeboro, which had a bunch of restaurants, shops, and a great walking/running trail. The house itself is right on the water of a good size pond, and away from busy Lake Winnipesaukee. The open concept was perfect for us. We did have 3 young children, so the only thing is that the downstairs might have been a little tight with them running around. But we only had one day that it was raining and we were stuck inside. All the other days we were outside, where there is a ton of room for them to run around- a huge deck and side yard. Just be aware of the stairs off the deck that go right do the water if you have small children with you. The kitchen is very well equipped with tons of cooking utensils, pots and pans, plates, bowls, utensils, etc. and the grill was located right outside the kitchen side door. We would definitely recommend this house for others to spend a vacation!
