Clean, comfortable and cozy place. Pretty location

This cabin was spotless with a fully equipped kitchen. It was peaceful and I could hear the loons in the morning, but this is not lakefront. Nowhere on the listing does it state it is lakefront, but VRBO shows it as lakefront. The lake is actually across the street. Acess is about a door and half down. The lake is barely visible from the cabin; but the setting is so peaceful I didn't miss it. I loved that the yard was fenced in so I could let my dog out at night. It was a great cabin for us. The kitchen was awesome and had everything anyone could need. My only complaint is that the bottom bunk lacked a real mattress. It was just foam and was uncomfortable for an adult. It would be fine for a child. Also, the top bunk was covered with extra blankets, pillows, etc. We didn't need that bunk so it was ok for us, but storage is lacking a bit. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and we really enjoyed ourselves. The thing to remember is that this is a rustic cabin in a very private setting. It is charming.

We love it so much and we want to come back next summer. The place was very clean and full of everyday living supplies, and including the fire pit. Thank you so much for ours stay!

We went on a trip to New hampshire for a dad and daughter vacation, as well as to house hunt for our upcoming move to the state. The location was perfect for getting away, while keeping us close enough to be able to get down to Southern NH in about an hour drive to view homes. The cottage was very clean, the owner was very helpful, and the cottage had all our needs covered. Zero complaints whatsoever. Highly recommend!

Great location, close to downtown Sunapee, Newport, New London (had a great lunch at Peter Christians), Georges Mills, access to shopping, restaurants, also a Dunkin Donuts, and Pizza Chef close by. If you’re a runner I did a great 6 mile loop down in Sunapee Harbor. Very pretty drive up to the cottage. Grass was nicely mowed, loved how the little yard was fenced in for our dogs. No issues with ticks at all. Nice deck which we used a lot with a nice table and umbrella for shade. Nice open living / dining room area. The kitchen was easy to cook in, good appliances and all pans, dishes, utensils provided. Washer / Dryer combo worked great. Shower worked great, good pressure, water temperature nice and hot. Perkins pond was very pretty! There was a nice, short, pine needle lined path down to the water. There was an issue with part of the dock being detached but we were able to access the connected section to put in our SUPs. I notified Laura our host, and she promptly notified the neighbor who shares the dock so I’m sure it will be fixed soon. Perkins pond was so peaceful. We had so much FUN swimming and paddling around! Also wonderful, we used the beach and transfer permit to access Dewey Beach and some of the public launches to get out on Lake Sunapee. We would book this cabin again for sure!

Overall, this cottage served as a nice spot to take a working vacation for my spouse and I. It offered the peace and quiet we were looking for, to include, space for our small dog to hang out. The Wi-Fi worked great (to run both our laptops), however, our T-Mobile cell service showed zero bars the two weeks we stayed there. The bedrooms were adequate in size, and there was enough storage to hang up/put away our clothes. The living room, dining room, kitchen, and side deck, all worked out just fine. That said, here are a few issues that we had. Water Pressure - I think everyone has their own definition of good shower water pressure. Our opinion was, the pressure was very low. Also, the sink faucet in the bathroom was missing the faucet aerator and because of that, water sprayed everywhere when we turned it on. Pond access: the trail going down to the pond was not very accessible. It could really use actual outdoor steps and/or a clearer path. Dangerous for some the way it is now. Yard: The ticks were bad. Because of that, we would suggest making sure the grass is always cut and treated in warmer months. It was long when we arrived. Cleanliness: Most importantly, the cottage was not cleaned well before we arrived. The bed linens were covered in hair - to the point we had to borrow linens from a family member 2 hours away. Bathroom was not clean (hair on toilet), floors were not swept, and couch was not vacuumed.

We rented this cabin for our daughter, son in law and grandchildren. The perfect laid back place to enjoy a relaxing few days off. No wine cellar, great room or 5 bathrooms, and that's the way it should be !!

This is our second year staying here and our kids are now DEMANDING we stay here every year. The house is clean with a nice yard for kids/pets to play in. The lake is a short walk and has a swimming platform. This year we took advantage of Dewey Pond which is about a 10 minute drive. Very clean beach with a basketball court, swing set and floating docks to swim out to and jump off. The house has a well stocked pantry and the general store is a short drive away. We just left today and are already looking forward to next years stay!!
