We stayed at this expensive B&B but on Tuesday and Wednesday they have no services. They offered us yogurt and berries and croissants on Tuesday and Wednesday am. No other breakfast. On Wednesday am. They didn’t even had berries and the croissants were stale from the day before. They are rated 4 stars but no room service. Their answer to our disappointment was we should have read their website and that it is Expedia fault. Don’t go there on a Monday or Tuesday and think you will get a B&B experience Not a $475 / night experience. Disappointed. We would like a refund

Never really saw staff. Doors were open not locked through the night. Felt very isolating and there was a lack of phone service which was concerning.

A Special Place
We had a wonderful stay. Our only complaint is that our beautiful suite had a very strong and lingering cleanser-type smell (perhaps carpet shampoo) and the window AC units were rather loud (but we were grateful for their cooling ability!). The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was fresh and delicious, cooked to order and our dinner there was wonderful. The view of Squam Lake is magnificent and we enjoyed sitting on our little deck off of our suite.

The Manor on Golden Pond is like stepping back in time. The property is nicely maintained. If you are looking for modern luxury, this is not the spot for you. But if you appreciate turn of the century architecture and luxury, you will love the Manor. Our room was on the second floor of the carriage house. Very peaceful and private with lovely views.

Check inn was easy and friendly. Room was large. Cleanliness so so. Especially during pandemic we would have thought you would see extra touches. They did give us a small bottle of hand sanitizer that was nice. Check in and check out they did not wear masks. NH is a low risk area but, still they can get the virus from visitors and should have worn them. Waitress did wear a mask at breakfast. There were dust and cobwebs on tables not in use in dining room.

If you love B&Bs with relishes food, beautiful scenery, and friendly staff you have to try this manor. I will try to get back for a s cons visit. This is a well experienced management and they don’t leave out any details. From the toiletries to the candlelight baths, this is a winner.

The Manor on Golden Pond
A lovely old building kept in very good shape. Clean room and spotless bathroom. The grounds are spacious and well groomed. The pool is in excellent condition. And the tennis court, while obviously not used very much, was also in good shape. Quiet and restful. An excellent dining room. We especially enjoyed breakfast while the sun reflected off of the lake below. The staff was very helpful and friendly. They obviously cared about the welfare and comfort of their guests. We plan on returning this winter.

Beautiful manor - great area - great time.
My husband and I took my elderly parents up to the Lakes Region in NH for a long weekend. Found this beautiful property on Travelocity - what a find. Gorgeous accommodations, wonderful food, beautiful area - lots to do. My husband and dad went golfing, while I took my mom to the Tanger outlets for some shopping. Took a dinner cruise on the Mount Washington and then a train ride around the lake the next day. Great time, beautiful scenery, great food, wonderful staff - very helpful. Highly recommend the Manor - can't wait top go back.

Pricey and not quiet on Golden Pond
The manor was ok, the staff was fantastic. It wasn't really water front. There was no place on the property where you could be next to the water. There is one spot in the front yard area where you have a distant view of Squam Lake. The included breakfast was great, just wished they offered room service. Dinner was just ok, and also pricey.

Another wonderful stay
We discovered the Manor last November and loved it, so looked forward to our return trip. Room had a fireplace and whirlpool tub (stayed in the Wellington). Everyone was so nice, always asking how our stay was, anything they could do. Food was excellent. Afternoon tea and biscuits in the library was a nice touch.

My husband and I booked a quick last minute get away to the Manor on Golden Pond. Overall, the stay was great. Service was excellent and all of the employees we encountered were very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was delicious. Our room was very nice. Large and the in-room fireplace was a great touch. Our only regret is that we only had 1 night there. We will definitely be back.

The Manor is a comfortable spot to stay for a camp pick up or drop off. The hotel looks like it needs some updating and a bit of TLC outside but it's charming and the rooms are very spacious. Breakfast is included and is delicious.

Old and worn out.
The Manor is simply run down and in need of repair, which is evident everywhere. Virtually no cell phone reception and no reliable internet. Main house is far better than the cottages but a disappointing experience.
