About this property
Four-Season Lake Winnipesaukee Retreat
Escape to the Lakes Region and settle into your own private retreat at Long Bay on Lake Winnipesaukee. This recently refreshed 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home combines the fun of a vacation house with the space and comforts you want for an extended stay, including a game room, golf cart, outdoor firepit and access to Long Bay’s private beaches, pool and recreation amenities.
Set on a wooded 0.47-acre lot, the home feels tucked away while keeping you close to everything that makes the Lakes Region such a special destination in every season.
The Home
The property has undergone an extensive exterior renovation along with significant interior updates, including two renovated bathrooms, fresh paint throughout, new carpeting and updated furnishings.
Spread across three levels, there is plenty of room for everyone to gather together or find their own space. The main living area is warm and comfortable with a woodstove for crisp fall nights and snowy winter evenings, while a separate bar area gives you another spot to unwind after a day on the lake or mountain.
The fully equipped kitchen makes longer stays easy, whether you are putting together breakfast before heading out for the day or settling in for a relaxed dinner at home.
With four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, the house is well suited to families, extended families and groups traveling together. The fourth bedroom features three queen beds, creating a fun group sleeping space that is perfect for kids, cousins or friends.
Your Own Game Room
When you are not out exploring, there is plenty to do at home.
The finished lower level is set up for nights in with a pool table, dart board, Xbox and popcorn machine. Add in Smart TVs, WiFi, board games and outdoor games and rainy days may end up being some of the most fun.
A washer and dryer are also available for the convenience of longer stays.
Outdoor Living
Fire up the grill for dinner, relax outside with a morning coffee or end the evening around the outdoor firepit.
A golf cart is included for getting around Long Bay and making trips to the beach, pool and other association amenities easy.
The Long Bay Experience
Long Bay offers the feel of a private lakeside resort while giving you the space and privacy of your own home.
Guests have access to community amenities including:
Private sandy beach access on Lake Winnipesaukee Swimming pool Tennis and pickleball Bocce Walking areas and trails Waterfront recreation and community spaces
Spend the afternoon at the beach, head home for a barbecue and finish the day around the fire.
A True Four-Season Getaway
Summer is made for swimming, boating, fishing, beach days and long evenings outside.
Fall brings spectacular foliage, scenic drives, hiking and cool nights around the firepit or woodstove.
Winter transforms the Lakes Region into a completely different getaway. Gunstock Mountain Resort is approximately 15 minutes away, making the house an ideal home base for skiing, snowboarding, tubing, snowshoeing and winter adventures. Snowmobiling and other cold-weather activities can also be found throughout the region.
Spring offers a quieter side of Lake Winnipesaukee with hiking, fishing, scenic drives and fewer crowds as the lake and surrounding towns come back to life.
You are within easy reach of Laconia, Gilford, Meredith, restaurants, marinas, shopping and Lakes Region attractions, yet once you return to Long Bay, it feels like a true retreat.
Guest Access
Guests receive a Long Bay community gate code along with keyless entry for convenient self check-in.

This home is available for stays of 28 nights or longer only, making it especially well suited to extended summer stays, ski-season escapes, remote-work getaways or families looking to spend meaningful time together at the lake.
