Christmas in Barnstead
4/5 Arrived after 4 as instructed (would have liked to arrive earlier, but our host never answered our request).Found the place heated and with 2 Xmas trees, which was wonderful. All in all it was a great stay, but would have liked to communicate with the owner.

Great house on a lake

My favorite week of the year
4/5 This was our 2nd year staying at your cottage and we already booked for next year- The outdoor space is what keeps us coming back- It is perfect for our family I was disappointed when we saw all the ants that were in the house especially the kitchen- we did buy ant traps and it did resolve this-

Beautiful location, very family friendly
4/5 Our group included my husband, myself, our older daughter, her husband and 3 month old baby, our younger daughter, and our two dogs. The house is in a gorgeous location right on the lake, with its own small beach, which was perfect for our plans for a quiet relaxing week. We were also very excited to have use of the kayaks - the lake is ideal for that! It seems like the house has undergone some renovations and maybe got stalled in the process. The living room, dining room, and some of the kitchen seem to have been updated, and the bedrooms were okay, but there wasn't anywhere to put clothes - no dressers or shelves, only a closet bar with a few hangers. We had trouble with the septic system after a couple days, but the owner was quick to respond and sent a repairman first thing the following morning, so we only had to live without toilets for one night, thank goodness. The house did have many extras for the baby and for the dogs, which was greatly appreciated.

Another wonderful vacation
5/5 Our family of 5 adults and 4 teens had a wonderful time here again this year. The house offers comfortable seating and sleeping arrangements for all of us and the outdoor amenities are superior. There were plenty of adirondack chairs and the private beach is a perfect place to soak up the sun. We enjoyed the starry night as we sat around the fire pit after a day of floating lazily on the lake. We all look forward to returning for a 3rd time next year.
