** PLEASE NOTE - This property does not have a hot tub. There is a glitch in Vrbo's software showing a number of properties as having hot tubs when, in reality, they do not. If you're looking for a hot tub, our recommendation is that you confirm the presence of a hot tub with the property host if Vrbo is listing a hot tub as an amenity. **

☆☆ ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ☆☆

Year-Round Driveway Restrictions: Due to the unique nature of our property's long, steep driveway, guests are prohibited from accessing the premises with trailers, vehicles equipped with lift gates, or low-clearance vehicles. Unfortunately, there is nowhere in our driveway, on the property, or on the street that you would be able to park a boat or a trailer carrying another vehicle. Please plan accordingly!

This restriction is in place to ensure the safety of our guests and to prevent potential damage to both the vehicles and the driveway.

We love dogs! We warmly welcome your canine companions to our home! For the safety and comfort of all, we kindly ask that you keep your furry friends on a leash when outside, pick up after them with poop bags, and be mindful of other dogs in the neighborhood.

We respect your privacy! There are no interior cameras. We do have a doorbell camera at each exterior door for your safety and for the security of our home.

Quiet hours are from 8pm-8am and we ask that you take all conversations inside after 8pm because neighbors will (and have) complained. We have a noise monitoring device outside, under the deck. Our noise monitoring device only measures the sound level, and will not record private conversations.

Please do not tamper with these or any safety devices - it is a violation of house rules. We are super easy going and flexible, but we are serious about this. If you tamper with any safety devices on our property, you will be asked to leave, and we will not issue a refund for any portion of your stay. Thank you.

There are certain risks associated with using a bunk bed and bunk bed ladder, and guests agree that use is at your own risk. Property owner assumes no responsibility for personal loss, injury, or illness of any kind which may result from use of the bunk bed and ladder. The owners are not liable for any accidents occurring.

Wonderful home in NH close to Lake Winnipesaukee
Our family had a wonderful stay at the house. Jason was a great host, quick to respond and very accommodating. During our stay, NH had some really hot weather that caused some issues with the HVAC system. Jason arranged for their handyman to come out everyday to keep the existing unit functioning for the remainder of our stay until the actual HVAC technicians could come out to replace the entire unit. He even had a few additional fans purchased and delivered the day we reported the issue to help us out. The property itself is in a great location, close to some really good trails and hikes. We will definitely return to the house on a future trip to the area.

Gorgeous home and location
Our mix of friends and family had such a wonderful stay at this stunning property. The house was exactly as described (with very comfortable beds) and featured a terrific view of the lake. Lots of space both inside and out, and we enjoyed being able to take full advantage of the grilling area. Our host Jason was both responsive and kind in every way, can’t thank him enough for his patience and for making our weekend.

Wonderful Family Vacation Spot
My family and I can’t say enough about this gorgeous property. The house was incredibly clean with many amenities provided. It was also well- stocked with necessary supplies such as cleaning products, paper products, toiletries, and kitchen essentials. We especially enjoyed the organized coffee station with everything a budding barista would need to get the day started. One of our favorite parts of the trip was taking our morning coffee on the deck with spectacular views of both mountains and the lake. The house was very spacious even with seven people and dogs. Each room was beautifully decorated and themed for a lake vacation or a ski retreat. The owners were excellent in accommodating our pups and were extremely dog friendly. They were also friendly and accommodating throughout the duration of our stay. The house was nestled in a quiet area with quick access to the lake, attractions, and wonderful local restaurants. We enjoyed taking daily walks in the beautiful neighborhood. We would highly recommend this property for your stay!

Gorgeous house!
We had such a wonderful stay at your property! The moment we stepped into the house we felt right at home! The house is absolutely beautiful, super clean, fully stocked, and has a great location. We were 3 families with kids/teens. During our stay we visited Gunstock Mtn (loved the treetop adventure), hiked at Mt Major, visited Ellacoya and swam in a lake, and drove to Mt Washington (autoroad). We absolutely loved cooking in the house, and enjoyed sitting at the beautiful balcony. We were also thankful to be able to bring our dogs with us! Jason is a wonderful host, very very responsive and helpful! Everything was top notch! We loved all of the furniture - very stylish and modern! We again thank you for a wonderful stay, and will definitely come back again!

Perfect Place
Just spent a wedding weekend with entire family in our VRBO in Gilford NH. Jason, our host was super friendly and efficient. The house was New Hampshire perfect. This would be an excellent house for people visiting the Lakes in the summer or Gunstock for skiing in the winter. Probably has insane color in the fall leaf season. Plenty of room for 8 but it can fit more. I love that there were condiments, washing liquid, etc. available. You felt that your were guest in someone's house, not a stripped out rentail. Bravo.

We had an incredible experience with our stay. The house has all the amenities and was very well maintained. Our kids had lot of fun in the house and were able to hang out together in the basement with TV, bathroom and 4 beds while all the adults had fun in the living room.

We had two families, 4 adults and 5 kids (5-13 age range), and this house was plenty large enough for us. The house was clean and spacious and had everything we needed. The owner gave us his contact info before we went and he was very responsive when we had questions. House was less than 10 minute drive to Gunstock Mountain. Would definitely stay at this house again.

Family Ski Vacation
This house is truly wonderful! Very clean, nicely decorated, everything you could possibly want in a rental and so close to the mountain. The beds were comfortable and the whole house has a very cozy but spacious feel to it! The views were spectacular! Check-in was easy and Jason was great to communicate with. Can't wait to go back for some hiking and foliage this fall! Driveway is steep so an AWD or 4-wheel drive is necessary in snowy weather.
