Timeless camp like a place out of time. We stayed with 3 children and an infant, were joined by cousins and grandparents, and everyone had a splendid time. The house and schoolhouse gave us plenty of space. We loved evening fires in the fireplaces. Kids loved jumping off the dock and swimming to the raft. It was a wonderful way to clear our heads and enjoy the lake.

We throughly enjoyed our stay. We an issue arose, Tom (handyman) responded when in minutes. I would stay again, my wife won't because. Spiders and cobwebs everywhere in and out. Spiders on covered porch where quite large. My thoughts were that was why there were so few mosquitoes. No shower in main house even an outdoor shower would have been nice. For me I

Our family had a wonderful week at Camp Penowee! The very best thing was to be right on pristine Squam Lake. Having access to a raft, kayaks and a canoe added to the fun. We also very much appreciated the huge porch where we ate all our meals. There are no houses nearby and having two buildings available gives a sense of space and privacy. (We certainly made use of the pool table and games in the school house.) I had been concerned before we arrived that the kitchen might be pretty small for cooking for so many. But the kitchen is bigger than it looks in the picture online. And it is stocked with everything you need. I was really happy to see that there was a second refrigerator in the school house. The property manager was extremely helpful answering emails right away. I felt very free to ask all kinds of questions beforehand. Keep in mind that this is a rustic old style camp. If you require up to date, spa-resort type facilities, this is not for you. But if you like history, privacy, natural beauty and proximity to one of the most beautiful lakes anywhere consider this camp in Holderness.

Rustic camp right on the water with lots of great spaces inside, a fantastic main room, with a fireplace that we used several times (was one of the coldest, wettest weeks in July that NH had seen in a long time). Owner was great about getting back to me whenever I had questions, and dispatching help as needed. I am hopeful to return next year and that the grill will be working a bit better (handyman did a major effort trying to revive) or I will resort to charcoal. Loved the canoe as well, a vintage Gruman in fantastic shape. The paddles were all in pretty poor shape, but did not have a chance to mention that to the owner since we only got good canoe weather the last day. Sunfish was broken so that was too bad, especially since it might not be possible to get parts before even next year (rest of the boat looked in great shape). Owner was great about arranging linens and house towels for us. We fly in from across the country, so bringing linens/towls/etc would be pretty awkward. Definitely helped to have those sitting there waiting for us when we arrived.

The property was lovely - house and lakefront. The history within the house added to the experience. Squam Lake is truly special. The owner couldn't have been easier to ask questions of and responded with answers very quickly. Our family made many new memories. There was no need to leave the property all week.
