We have 2 docks for swimming and/or fishing, etc. The beach allows for walking right into the water on a gradual slope (easy for kids of all ages)- into sandy bottom in the beginning and then slightly rocky bottom further out. I believe that the beach faces west and gets sun throughout the day. We are right at the section that also connects up to the Little Pea Porridge pond so swimming, fishing, boating is fun and easy from this spot."

Reviewer Comments:
The house was nice and the hot tub was good. Fireplace didn't work which was disappointing, especially since we were only there for less than 48 hours and it was raining out. Also, I found the expectation to wash the dishes, sweep etc AND bring sheets kind of annoying since VRBO charges a ridiculous cleaning fee. This is more a complaint about VRBO than the house.One important note for those who are physically challenged. There are three cement steps down to the property and no ramp or railing. House was lovely inside. Definitely perfect for those who like to cook. This was my first time renting a property so I suppose this was more sticker shock than anything. It was a LOT of money for not even 48 hours.

Reviewer Comments:
Beautiful location, well-maintained property, hot tub luxury addition, convenient to activities yet far enough away for quiet, lovely pond for kayaking, and nice road system for jogging. The only disappointment was something totally out of the owner's or rental control, and that is the noise of construction nearby during the week that started sometimes at 7 am until 3 pm, so we tried to plan our activity days (mini golf, shopping, etc...) during most of that.

We had a great week long stay! We utilized the Sandy beach, kayaks, canoe and pedal boat! The house was beautiful and we loved the amount of space in the kitchen. The lake was a great spot for fishing, but there were a lot of kayakers who fished very close to our beach since we were close to the canal connecting middle pea pond to little pea pond. Courtney at select was incredibly helpful throughout the booking, check in and check out process. We immediately booked another rental for next year.

Reviewer Comments:
Overall the week was wonderful. We enjoyed the house and waterfront property. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, and typical kitchen amenities. The layout of the house was great and we enjoyed the deck and sandy beach area. A few areas that would have made the experience a bit better. The house could use a good power washing. It is extremely dirty on the deck side which made it a bit of an eye sore. We had to call to have the hottub serviced as it was not serviced on the scheduled date and it never fully got clean so I would suggest two cleanings a week. The deck is a bit uneven which was evident when being in hottub as water went over edges when only 2-3 people were in hottub. The basement bathroom had an awful smell so we didn't use it. And lastly the house is worn, stain carpets, chipped paint, older furniture etc. A deep clean and tighter screws would make it a bit more appealing. The dock was nice but the area was very rocky so we didn't allow kids to jump off it. Property management from booking to checking out was fabulous.

Reviewer Comments:
Air conditioners in 2 of the upstairs bedrooms were not working. One made a horrible screeching noise when we turned it on. The other one the compressor would not come on no matter how low we put the temperature. The back slider door screen would not slide. The track was bent so we had to keep closing the min sliding door. The freezer was dirty and needed to be wiped down before we used it. The dining chairs on the deck has soaked cushions that we could not use all weekend and 2 or 3 of those chairs were missing the backs to them. Also, the description of what the house has for amenities and supplies should be updated. It wasn't very clear and my family and I ended up WAY over packing which was annoying to a degree.

Great location- easy access to North Conway and all the attractions. Awesome kitchen with plenty of space for large family dinners. The management company was very responsive and took care of any issues we had quickly. The only drawback was that the deck furniture was not in good condition. We had a great week of family time!

Location was amazing and the pond front water access was quite nice especially if you plan to use all of the boats the property offers. The house itself was pet and kid friendly. Home is slightly dated and could use some upgrades. Great kitchen for entertaining. The basement level had a smell consistent with potential water damage but nobody in our group slept there so was no an issue. The place could have been a bit cleaner. Lots of bugs indoors. Highligh recommend fly paper especially on the bedroom level. Overall a decent property for groups of 8+ people.

We had a lovely stay at this house. It is well equipped and the location on the water is ideal. The hot tub is very nice, and we had lots of fun taking the boats out! The living space is nice and large to accommodate the entire family. Only a couple notes - first, the check in/out is a bit of a pain because you have to go into town to pick up and drop off the key. More ideal would be a lock box. Second, the basement is a bit damp smelling and running any water in the basement bathroom creates an unpleasant smell. Overall, however, a really great stay at a lovely property - so I still highly recommend!

The home was perfect for a group getaway to NH. So many amenities right in the home- we barely felt like we had to leave (hot tub, private beach, grill, etc.). In a great location close to downtown Conway and great hiking. Would definitely recommend/come back!

I rented for the winter season. Location is very nice, however, the upkeep of the property leaves little to be desired. Mold and mildew throughout the property, basement has a strong sewer smell, and the lake water docks/furniture are not kept up. The mgmt company is also very difficult to deal with, lots of finger pointing at the renter , when they don't set you up to do things properly. Things like hot tub care should be clearly articulated and they are not. Overall, there are better places to rent in MWV.

Our family really enjoyed our stay. The house is beautiful and everything was clean. The location was gorgeous. We stayed there on Columbus day weekend so no swimming brrrr. Sitting at the fire on the beach at night was amazing. The only negative comment is that the livingroom furniture desperately needs to be replaced. It is grungy. The rental company are very professional.

Overall great location and lots of things to enjoy and do at the house and in the area. House itself could use some updating and deep cleaning in areas (basement has a weird smell), more convenient and available supplies (no sponge, no dust pan, etc.) However, fireplace, first floor spaces, watercraft and fire pit made for a great family weekend.
