You will love our charming, clean 2 bedroom lakeside cottage, on the shores of Winnipesaukee, located in West Alton, NH. We believe it has the best view on the lake! And is available to rent from June to mid-October. Pet-friendly fenced property. Non-barking, well-behaved dogs welcome upon approval at no extra charge,

Perfect size for a family with 2-4 kids or 1 or 2 couples. Maximum number of people sleeping at the cottage is 6.

From seniors to little kids this a great spot for all ages. Being lakeside on Winnipesaukee you will love relaxing by the lake and looking out at the view. You will enjoy swimming in the crystal clear water with a beautiful sandy bottom.

We provide 3 kayaks and 2 paddle boards for your use and the dock is available if you have a boat. (We can suggest boat rentals)

Built by my grandfather in 1927 we’ve modernized it over the years to be very comfortable and have the amenities we all require. Everyone who has ever visited comments on how country cozy and beautiful the cottage is and how unbelievable the view is!

Both the outdoor fireplace and the fire pit at the waters edge are available for your use in the evenings. Often you can hear the the call of the loons on the lake. It is so peaceful.

There is a hammock for a nap by day and to gaze at the stars by night.

The are 2 rocking chairs and several adirondack chairs to relax in on the dock or shore while looking out at the lake, islands and the Ossipee Mountain Range.

Winnipesaukee is the perfect lake for boating. You can go to Wolfeboro for the biggest best ice cream cone ever, Alton Bay for a yummy lunch at Pops Clam Shack, visit the Weirs for arcades and more, and our favorite restaurant in Meredith for lunch is Town Docks where you can eat outside on a glorious day! All of these places and more are available by car as well.

There are lots of great restaurants… it’s just a 10 minute car ride to one of our favorites, Ellacoya, where they have daily specials and the food is always delicious.

If you like to cook at home it’s less than 15 minutes to Beans and Greens for fresh veggies. They even have fresh baked pie. (Blueberry is our favorite) Shaw’s and Hannaford are the closest grocery stores just a few minutes from Beans and Greens.

A favorite of many is to swim from our cottage to the “Point” (Smith’s Point) along the shoreline in the morning. Or go out for an early morning kayak to catch the sunrise.

Great outlet shopping is about 30 minutes away in Tilton. Terrific shopping for souvenirs and boutique clothes are in Gilford, Meredith, Wolfeboro and Laconia. Funspot is not far for arcades and bowling and there are several mini golf locations close by. There is a 3-ring binder at the cottage with info on area attractions, restaurants and more.

If relaxing at the most beautiful spot on Winni seems good to you we hope you’ll inquire for more info.

Well behaved dogs welcome with approval.
