Picture Perfect Family & Friends Vacation!
We had an amazing summer family and friends (framily) vacation in this beautiful oasis! We all had such a great time on the lake this week with our best friends and our babies and our two pups! Spent our days swimming, fishing, floating, and kayaking. Spent our nights hanging in the hot tub, playing pool, watching the Olympics, playing games and just spending time together in this little slice of paradise. Can’t wait to come back next August! Ed and Leatha are such thoughtful and considerate hosts. We had everything we could have needed, wanted, and more!

Perfect stay!
We had a perfect weekend at this lakeside cottage! We were in town for our son's graduation from UNH, and needed a home that was large enough for grandparents and ourselves. This was a perfect place for us to relax, unwind, and enjoy some family time! The listing is accurate, and there was nothing extra that we could have wanted. We have stayed at many rental homes in the past, but this is the first time that I can honestly say that all we needed to bring were our clothes and food. There were plenty of towels (both bath towels and beach towels), and an entire closet of extra bedding. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you could have needed to cook, and we were surprised with a little snack basket and k-cups for the Keurig. Toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap, dish soap, shampoo, conditioner, and bodywash were all provided as well. We were able to use the kayaks and paddleboat (plenty of life vests and water shoes were also available to us), and the hot tub, pool table, and karaoke machine kept us plenty busy while it was raining. The host was easy to communicate with both before an during our stay. Would highly recommend!

The house is beautiful and spotless. So many different sitting areas inside and out. The house has so many amenities that we didn’t feel like we were missing anything. The host was very responsive and accommodated our requests. Looking forward to our next girl’s weekend trip, that I have already rebooked.

Absolutely beautiful house
My sister and I took our daughter's on a little getaway and this house had everything we needed. We all had our own space and traveling with 3 teens space is important. There's plenty of stuff to do at the house we didnt feel we had to go find something. The hosts were great to communicate with. Would stay here again and recommend to others.

We try to get together twice per year now that the kids are grown and out on their own. Ed and Leatha are phenomenal hosts. This place has everything! My husband brought all the ingredients to make his famous family chili but forgot to bring the crock pot- no worries! There was not one but two crock pots! Seriously, all you need to bring is your loved ones and make your memories. We have some great ones from our stay here. Thank you Ed and Leatha :)

Fabulous long weekend getaway
Even after reading all the 5-star reviews, this stay exceeded our expectations. The home itself was lovely, with so many amenities and all the details attended to, and the location was fantastic. We stayed for a long weekend Spring Break getaway, and enjoyed three days of kayaking, hot tubbing, karaoke-ing, playing pool and board games, and breathing in the peace of the location. The hosts were communicative and responsive, the house was beautiful and well kept, and we could not have enjoyed our time more. Thank you!

Spring Break family vacation
Found this house on VRBO that really seemed to fit our needs: 4bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, good location. When we arrived the place far exceeded our expectations. We loved it the minute we walked in. So clean and decorated so tastefully. It felt so comfortable and inviting. Just what we wanted after spending 4 days in NYC. We wanted a place to relax and we did. Especially loved the entertainment area. Pool table, Wii, Karaoke, hot tub were all enjoyed by the whole family. Leatha was very easy get a hold of with any questions. We had a hard time leaving and would love to come back when the weather is warmer and can enjoy the wonderful lake and outdoors.

If you are looking for a relaxing getaway from the city, this is an ideal location. It has everything you could wish for: tremendous views of the lake, a private deck with bbq, fully equipped kitchen, tvs in every room, pool table and karaoke, endless amount of towels. The owners answer your questions in nano seconds if you ever have any. It is perfectly located 20 mins from the mountains and 30mins from the ocean. Would certainly come here again and recommend it as a top notch 5 star VRBO property (can we rate more than 5? Let’s give them 6*).
