For your next vacation, come escape to this lovely 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house on the lake. There's enough room to accommodate the whole family, so it's a fantastic size for your group to feel cared for and comfortable. Wake up with a cup of coffee on the deck to watch the sunrise. With miles of snowmobile trails, numerous clear lakes and streams for fishing or boating, and an abundance of gorgeous scenery year-round, Barnstead, New Hampshire is the perfect New England retreat for all seasons.
If you're a serious outdoor enthusiast, you won't be disappointed - You'll find endless hiking and walking opportunities around the house, and the largest state park in New Hampshire is only 11 miles away.
Hike up the beautiful Mount Major for some incredible views of Lake Winnipesaukee, or take advantage of the many miles of cross-country skiing and snowmobile trails in the winter. The family-friendly Gunstock Mountain ski resort is only 25 minutes away as well. There really is a little something for everybody here in Barnstead!
Our family of five enjoyed a 6 day stay in late July at this fun and funky A-frame. The online description is very accurate. There are no linens or towels of any kind, so BYO. Washer and dryer are brand new. The mattress in the attic is actually now a normal full size, not an air mattress, and the space up there is cute for kids. We cooked several full meals and found the kitchen had all the necessities. One couch is not very comfortable, but the other is very nice. TV wifi options were fine. Some beach chairs/noodles and kid games available. Would stay again.

We loved the lake access with this house, there's no dock but there is a little sandy area that the kids loved using and you can walk out really far before it gets deep. We brought our kayaks and had a great time outside. The inside was very sparse, there was 1 chair and 2 uncomfortable couches, the beds were fine and the hot tub was very nice. We only stayed for 2 nights so it was fine but for a longer stay I would prefer a place that was a little easier to live in. We rent 3 or 4 times a year in the area for vacations and this was lacking a little. The previous guests had not cleaned up so there was some glass and fireworks in the yard, not the homeowners fault but be aware if you have little ones in the yard that no one checks it before you arrive.
Nice location and view of the lake, but needs some work. Beds & furniture very uncomfortable. Electrical outlets: one side worked the other did not. Septic system (?) very noisy.

We enjoyed the lake view and location. We had the opportunity to use the BBQ grill and fireplace. There was a glitch with the water boiler on the first night and we didn't have hot water for a few hours, but we called the landlord and were able to get it resolved. The wifi is somewhat spotty and the cellar bathroom light stopped working midway through our stay, but not a deal breaker since we really enjoyed our stay.

The stay was in a great location and very unique setting. Only difficulty was figuring out the heat. Spent a couple hours trying to get the heat past 55. Once I fixed it all was well. Wifi was subpar. But those are minor and overall stay was great
