Decent stay, location is great.
3/5 Communication needs work, could not get a hold of the host at the beginning of the trip. Overall, decent location for fishing and kayaking. Place was clean except for some sheets. There are some things that are hard to figure out in the house such as the bathtub shower and wished they were instruction to switch bathtub faucet to shower. TVs were all disconnected from the wifi so we had a hard time figuring it out as the network/hotspot was different from what was given. Couple things like that, and even than, the trip was decent. Location is quiet and outdoor fire pit was nice. 3 1/2 stars overall.

Magnificent craftsmanship!
5/5 A family weekend get-away - plenty of room for 5 adults and 2 children.
Great communication with the owners -- home was very clean and the the kitchen had everything we could ever need. We enjoyed the view from the deck and master bedroom!
Took advantage of Gunstock adventure park, a cruise on the Mt. Washington, and 'family fun' at Beans and Greens.
Waterfront Retreat stay
5/5 We were 4 adults couples that stayed at the retreat for the Laconia Bike Rally. There was plenty of room for all of us. The home was beautiful with amazing views as it sits in the water. We really enjoyed our time there! Would definitely stay again. Thank you
Mehhh
3/5 I tried to reach guest contacts by text and e-mail two days before the check-in but could not get a response, which was disconcerting. I had to call them to find answers to my questions. The house was clean, the kitchen was nice. One of the worst things about this house was lighting. It was poor and some light bulbs out most rooms and the main floor was extremely dim. There were some issues of it not being as the pictures suggested. There was not a cushioned outdoor seating in the deck as pictured.I don't think to stay again. I wish I could've left a better review.

Beautiful lakeside retreat
5/5 We got lucky with the weather and were out on the kayaks almost every day even though it was November. It’s a small lake but beautiful and quiet area, nice walks also across the other side of lake. House was well stocked, amazing kitchen, and great open layout. Master suite amazing with heated floor in bath. Hosts were very responsive to any issues or questions.
