House rentals with a pool

Fantastic Kittery Home with Pool
The house was perfect for my family and I- plenty of open space for the kids to play and a great yard- even in December with cold weather the kids loved the play gym outside!! The location was amazing with lots of things to do within a few minutes and the food scene was great. Thanks to Ned for a spotless home and great amenities!! We can’t wait to come back in the summer to use the pool!!

Large Pool, Nature Trails, Redd's Pond, 4-Bed
Amy was very responsive and communicative. The house was clean and maps took us right to the home. It was too early in the season to enjoy the pool but it was pristine and would have been great for hot summer weather. Amy was wonderful with trying to accomodate any requests and we liked the location from easy access to Salem and within a one hour drive to Boston!

Locke Lake Waterfront Escape
Great and relaxing location, close to local amenities. Perfect for small groups, Hillary was awesome to rent from.

Hopkinton Mass 3+ Bedrooms - Great location!
Six of us stayed over the weekend. We were very comfortable and Brad was very helpful and responsive. House had everything that we needed. Brad is a great host. Would 100% recommend a stay.

Courtyard Garden | Pool | BBQ+Fire Tbl | Fireplace
From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home thanks to the incredibly warm and welcoming hosts, Tania and Glenn. They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, offering great local tips and always greeting us with a smile. Their hospitality truly made a difference. The home itself is absolutely stunning—beautifully designed, impeccably clean, and filled with thoughtful touches that made it feel extra special. Whether we were enjoying a quiet morning coffee or relaxing in the cozy living area after a day of exploring, everything was perfect. This was one of the best Airbnb experiences we've ever had. If you're lucky enough to find availability here—book it! You won't regret it. Thank you, Tania and Glenn, for a truly unforgettable stay! 💛

Charming Vintage Home - Elegance & Modern Comforts
This was our second stay at Donna & Greg’s lovely charming old house with all modern amenities. Peaceful, private and quiet. Couldn’t recommend it more, we have been staying in different Airbnb’s nearby Concord and theirs is hands-down the best one listed!

the house of id; vintage shop, accessible space
We absolutely loved our stay at this home! It was extremely clean, cozy, and beautifully prepared — every detail made us feel so comfortable and welcome. You can truly feel the love and care the host put into the space. It felt like a warm home from the moment we arrived. We are already looking forward to coming back again. Thank you for such a special experience! 🙏✨💕☀️

Bedford Retreat: pool, fenced yard.
Daniel and Monica were great hosts that responded to any questions or needs. They live right next to this guest house so we’re quick to respond. This house is a bit small but has enough space for up to three or maybe one more on the sun porch if using an available air mattress. It is comfortable and homey. The bedroom in the basement is fine but the rest of the basement is mostly unfinished. The pool would be a nice feature but it was too early in the season for a dip in the cold water. Plenty of stores and restaurants are within 5-10 minutes of here including a Market Basket, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and big REI store among many others.

Willow Falls Home ~Hot tub & Waterfront
Such an amazing place to stay - easy to get to surrounding towns and local attractions but the physical location and the space lends itself to such a beautiful tranquility and peace we could feel ourselves relaxing the minute we got out of the car. Everything we could have wanted was provided, including a washer and dryer, the beds were so very comfortable, and being able to soak in the hot tub beneath the stars after a long day was just an added bonus. We were so grateful to be able to be in this space for about a week and hope to be able to rerun in the future!

* * Crooked_Spring_Colonial * *
The home is beautiful, exactly as pictured on the site, located on a very quiet street in a wooded area. Very clean, with access to a whole array of kitchenware and other items around the house. Excellent, detailed set of instructions for the home with info on TV controls, gaming system, thermostat control, local recommendations, and departure instructions. This would be an amazing house to stay with small children, as there is a fun playroom with toys in the basement and a great backyard. It's about 45 minutes to Boston without traffic, and about 1 1/4 hours at peak times, so plan accordingly if you are planning travel to downtown Boston. Great local ice cream place just down the street and local shopping about 10 minutes away.

Sunny cape in Chester pets welcome
Norma’s place was a great stay! We came to NH to celebrate the holidays with our family and this place did not disappoint. Well worth the price and very comfortable. Would highly recommend!

Charming 4-Bedroom Colonial
Host was absolutely amazing! House was amazing as well, exactly as described and was beautiful. Easy checkin, very proactive, and kept in touch when needed!! Would book again 100%. Cannot recommend enough!

Piscataquog Reservoir House - 26 Channel Ln
Beautiful home and very relaxing surroundings. Loved sitting out by the water having a cup of coffee in the morning. Great firepit - made s’mores with the grandkids. Lovely home with all the amenities you could want. Very attentive host. Will definitely be back.

Linden Cottage - comfort, connection, convenience
Beautiful and clean home. The host was very responsive and fixed an issue we had quickly. I texted at 3am expecting a reply later but got a response right away. Stayed here with 7 others and it was very comfortable with everything we needed.

Enchanting Romantic Riverfront (SNHU/Saint Anselm)
This was a great spot to relax and recharge for a couple days. Prior to my visit, I stocked up on groceries and did not leave until checkout. It was peaceful to just sit on the deck in the warm weather and watch the ice begin to melt on the river. I would definitely return, even in the winter/early spring as it is a great place to enjoy some quiet and a good view.

Romantic Mirror cabin in the woods
This was the best experience we’ve ever had with Airbnb. From start to finish, Christian’s communication was excellent. I honestly wish everyone were as communicative and proactive as he is. This place truly left a mark on us. Our experience was so amazing that we genuinely want to recommend it to everyone. It was impeccable full of thoughtful details. We reconnected deeply. Everything was just perfect. I didn’t want to leave. The details won me over, and the intentionality behind this place is something truly special. I’m genuinely in love with this place. 💛

Charming Home with Hot Tub. Minutes to Downtown!
We were in town for my niece's high school graduation and wanted a place for a few family members to stay together. The house was in a nice neighborhood, quiet, and comfortable. The host was very responsive and we had no issues. The only thing I would note is that there are no bedrooms on the main level- either upstairs or downstairs- so if you have mobility impaired guests this could be an issue. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

4 Bedroom Wooded Gemstone Retreat
We had a wonderful experience staying here. We booked here because my suster was fetrinf married neae by and we needed a place to get ready. There was plenty of space and rooms for everyone! The dexk was beautiful to hang out on!We ran into a small issue with outlits not working by the slider door but was able to make it work!

Our Pondside Cabin
We had a great stay. It really is minutes away from hiking trails, as well as some restaurants. It was exactly what our large group needed. We were able to prepare meals in the kitchen and ate and played board games at the large dining table. The living room area was comfy and large enough for our group to all hang out in. The place was clean and as pictured in the listing. Kathleen was also very responsive to a few questions I had while there. I'd be happy to return.

Stylish Craftsman in Manchester
5 stars! We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb for a local soccer tournament! The place was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and in a great location. Check-in was super easy, and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout my stay. I especially appreciated the little touches. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Private Lake ~ Beach ~ Family Getaway
The house itself is very private and lends itself to a great time with friends or family. I highly recommend this for anyone whom is looking. The beach is perfect for playing games with friends whether it be a game of toss, or corn hole. The quarry itself is relaxing and peaceful, definitely worth a quick paddle around at the minimum. The house was spacious, with areas to both gather as a large single group, but also there are places where those whom need it can recharge their social battery. 10/10 can recommend.

Ski Sunapee or Pat’s Peak Look To The Mountain
Absolutely incredible experience! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this place was something special. The property was immaculate—clean, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Every detail, from the cozy bedding to the pristine kitchen, was perfection and made our trip unforgettable. Judith went above and beyond in every way, and clearly thought of everything a guest would need to feel right at home. She is also very responsive and easy to communicate with Without question, this property sets the gold standard for all Airbnb rentals. If every Airbnb were like this one, hotel chains would be out of business. We can’t recommend it highly enough and will absolutely be back. Mahalo you for an exceptional stay and A Hui Hou!

Private Waterfront home
The home was exactly as described. There were plenty of towels, linen and beds for a group of 10. The home was spotless and was very comfortable. Anna-Lisa was an amazing host. She provided clear instructions for entry into the home, offered lots of recommendations and was very quick to respond to all inquiries. The she shed was a bonus for any mom needing a few moments away.

2 bedroom waterfront retreat all seasons
Katy's house was the perfect space for a peaceful getaway. The house was beautiful and surprisingly spacious, and the view of the lake was perfect. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back if we get the chance!
