A touch of Serenity
Linda was wonderful in her review of the property and was very accommodating in all aspects of our stay. The cottage was well equipped and very comfortable including the mattress. We enjoyed the lake and a little fishing. The area is very nice and we did some exploring. It was very quiet and we rarely even saw anyone while we were on the lake. We hope to return in the spring or summer. Many thanks to Linda and Brad

We were looking for a private retreat in the NH woods
The description in Vrbo matched what we found & other than the rain we had a great time. We spent a good deal of our time out on the water in the provided kayaks,floats, motor boats & swimming. The water will appear brown but it is clear. It is this color because of the type of tree rooots that ring this very large pond that is only 10 ft deep. Lots of fish! We saw a bald eagle,heron,heard loons. Very private, never saw anyone else. Great basecamp for hiking, biking, going to restaurants. Several nearby towns have movies,libraries,groceries & laundromat. Limited shopping for gifts. We would go back!

A wonderful secluded gem
We stayed here 4 nights and loved it. We basically had the lake to ourselves the entire time, and we were there on labor day. If you're looking for fishing, kayaking, grilling, time in the woods, and relaxing ... it doesn't get better than this. Brad and Linda were wonderful hosts as well.

Fantastic tune
We had an amazing time with our puppy. Fishing, motor boat, kayaking. Perfect weather. Home was exactly what we were looking for. We enjoyed the outdoors, views and fire pit. Linda and Brad are gracious hosts. We WILL be back if you want to enjoy the out doors. This is a must.

Dark and dreary and junk yard
We left the next day and returned to our beautiful well kept backyard and home that provided much comfort. This is the first time we’ve been disappointed with VRBO it was totally disgusting

Great camp
Private wooded shady retreat camp with good fishing and very kind hosts. If your going to fish for bass firetiger colors brighter the better even for soft plastic twitch baits.
