Lake Waukewan Camp
We can't say enough about how great this apartment was for us and how great Sandy and Tom are both as hosts and as people! Sandy is very accommodating and makes her guests feel so welcome by providing everything they might need (and also things they didn't know they needed but were glad to have!). The unit is well stocked and furnished very comfortably. The location by the lake is beautiful and it's so convenient to be right on the lake and also a short walk into town (and an even shorter drive). Our daughter and granddaughter had a lot of fun on the 2 paddle boards, and we used the canoe as well to explore the lake. There are plenty of chairs to sit by the lake, and it was really nice to sit around the firepit in the evening. We hope we'll have the opportunity to go back to Meredith and stay with Sandy and Tom again.

Luxury Studio Apartment
Beautiful spot to stay in as you explore the area, we were there for a concert and wish we had more time.

Surrounded by Recreation (1)
Clean, cute and well stocked. I really liked having the screen door open to listen to the waterfall. Thank you, Ruth!

Harmony lane retreat
Very nice, peaceful place. Was a good weekend get away will definitely go back when I get the chance!!

Riverside Place
Valorie and his husband Juan are very friendly. The photos of the house don't match the reality, the house is much better!

Waterfront Winnisquam Studio
We loved it here. Quiet and amazing sunrise view. We ended up extending our stay a week longer. Lindsay was quick to respond and we enjoyed our stay.

Paradise on the pond
This is the second year we stayed at Paradise on the Pond, a great spot to access both Pat's Peak and Crotched Mountain Ski resorts. Cynthia was very accommodating of some changes in our schedule due to my upcoming surgery and she provided an extra very comfy blow up bed for a 3rd guest. Thank you Cynthia! Hope to see you again next year!

Stone Mountain Guest House 2nd Floor Apt.
We had a wonderful stay! The apartment was clean, cozy and had a welcoming atmosphere. The location was incredibly convenient, just a short drive to Stone Mountain Arts Center. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and hassle-free stay. Thank you Rebecca and Bradford.

Lake Winnipesaukee Retreat
This lake home was a perfect place for our fall getaway. The views of the lake and Mt Major were better than anticipated. Everything was clean and extremely comfortable. Would love to return to the area and stay again.

NH lake home | private dock & waterfront access
I really enjoyed our stay in this Airbnb. We were busy during the day so I didn’t get the chance to enjoy the lake, but the house was beautiful and comfortable, there are 3 (!) full bathrooms, and the kitchen was well stocked with pans and dishes. I hope to come back and spend more time here.

Remodeled Waterfront Home - Dock/AC/Dogs/Kayaks
We went to Steven’s home on Lake Winnisquam for our daughter’s graduation. The house is direct lake front, stunning panoramic views! The home is beautiful, updated and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is fully stocked, the washer/dryer convenient on main floor. Gas fireplace chased away coolness of the spring mornings and creates cozy ambiance. Comfy furniture! On the roomy screened porch the furniture is excellent quality. There is a drink fridge and ice maker on the porch for your convenience. The baths and bedrooms were immaculate. We appreciated full size beds. The neighbors are friendly and had a smile when we walked our dog or drove to the house. Great parking spaces, beautiful lawn area with firepit, seating space under the porch, gas grill, private dock, kayaks and more. Lake is pristine. Steven responds very quickly to inquiries and is a top notch host! Great coffee/tea station, thoughtful amenities! Will come again in a heartbeat!

Lakefront Home-Stunning Views-Hot Tub, 3100 sqft!
We had a great stay at Julie’s beautiful home. Her home was even nicer than the pictures. Great kitchen with everything you could possibly need. Open layout so we can all converse no matter what we were doing. Beds were comfortable. But the outside stole the show. The upper deck was spacious and had great views. The hot tub was just what we needed. Then you walk down to the dock and there is enough space for everyone to lay out. Lots of kayaks and paddle boat. Had fun exploring and fishing the lake. Perfect home for families to come together and catch up!! Oh, and the lower level was perfect with ping pong, foosball and tv for late night fun!! Would recommend to anyone wanting to be in the lake region of NH.

Blue Breeze - Private lakefront w/ Hot Tub
Carl and his cohosts were wonderful to work with, quick to respond with any needs. We had a great time this weekend, enjoyed the house and beautiful lake. Hope to return someday and look forward to working with them in the future!

Charming 3 Bedroom Concord New Englander
We had a lovely stay over a long weekend. It was enough space to spread out a bit with my family and in-laws without feeling like we were on top of each other. It was easy to get to Concord and did some walking on the Rail to Trail. Would recommend!

Lakefront home /3BR 2BA/ Dock/ Game room/ Garage
The house is beautiful and the views are just breathtaking. From inside the house, you get a beautiful view of the lake and then the porch is amazing. You can kayak, use the paddle board or use the canoe. You can also sit by the lake and enjoy the campfire. The surroundings are very beautiful and peaceful. The host is very responsive, solved all our doubts and was flexible with us during check-in and check-out, which we appreciated very much. At check-in, we were greeted by a great bottle of wine and chocolates, which was a great touch. The house also has a ping pong table, books to read and board games. The kitchen was well stocked with the basics. We had an amazing stay, we highly recommend this property :)

A Peaceful Lake House by Winnisquam
Tim, my family and I enjoyed our time at your cottage, it was very homey and we had everything we needed. Our grandson really enjoyed fishing, and caught 7 Bass. We will definitely be coming back soon. Paula

Sunset Bay Condominium
After a long day of driving from New York, and hikes at Franconia Notch State park, Julianne’s condo was a perfect getaway to stay in Laconia with backyard lake views to die for. The condo was clean and cozy. The highlight of the stay was watching the sunset from the balcony and admiring the stars at the private sandy beach. The host was very responsive. Thank you for the clear and precise instructions beforehand, everything was simple and straightforward. I would 100% recommend this place! :)

Condo with stunning views of lake Winnipesaukee
Excellent host who always answers your messages even if it's the smallest little question. Beautiful unit huge with its own bedroom with two beds in it and a separate living room. Absolutely a place you'll want to stay if you come to the area.

Amazing view of Lake Winnisquam, fully remodeled!
Beautiful condo, very clean with an awesome view. Christine is an awesome person and great to deal with. I will definitely be back ! I highly recommend!

Blackcat One Room Studio on Lake Winnipesaukee
Darla and Tyler were Great. The Cottage couldn't have been better. The view from their balcony was amazing. Parking was right in front of the front door, so convenient. We will definitely be back here in the future. They really made us feel welcomed. Thank you Darla and Tyler for a Great Stay

Lakeview 2 QN bed Hot Tub Pool Concerts BBQ Weirs
Great location and amenities!

Private Suite at Lakefront Resort
Wonderful place and responsive owner. Would definitely return!

Lakeview Condo in Laconia
Nice roomy comfortable space for two moms and three adult children. The condo was clean and beautifully decorated. Good location for getting to Bank of NH for a concert. Within driving distance to restaurants, grocery stores and Weirs beach. We didn't know how to adjust a digital thermometer. I had to message Ryan late at night. He got back to me right away and was super helpful. We had a memorable and pleasant time enjoying the lakes region of NH. Thank you, Ryan!

Lake View Paugus Bay Condo
The place was great, it had everything I needed for my stay, and I was very comfortable there. My only complaint would be that people in other units could be loud enough to hear sometimes.
