Unique Waterside Cottage - White Mountains, NH

EllieRating, 5 stars6 months ago
The cozy cottage was a great base for our trip to the White Mountains. Only 30 minutes from the Woodstock and Lincoln area via a beautiful drive. Mornings sipping coffee on the deck while taking in nature—perfection! Even with the weather being colder and foggy. A bald eagle flew right by the deck our first morning and it was stunning. It is a more rustic place, designed to unplug from technology, so just be prepared; it was exactly what we needed though. We loved our visit and would stay again!

Little Red Wing 50s Lake Cabin

JacobRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Jason was a fantastic host and his cabin was wonderful. He left the dock in later in the season for us since the weather had been unusually warm recently. The cabin had a great kitchen and there was more than enough room for the two of us. Parking was easy, right out front. There was a ton to do with fun thrift stores in the nearby towns and hiking just 10 minutes away at Mt Sunapee. There were kayaks, canoes, and a paddle board though the water was a bit cold to be boating. I would definitely stay at Jason's cabin again!

Secluded Waterfront Retreat

MarioRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Camp Copper! A great property for a larger group, with nicely decorated interior and brand new appliances. Host is super responsive and addressed the icy conditions during the time of our stay quickly. Superb location for skiing at Sunday River in the winter and due to the lakeside location most certainly the perfect summer location as well. We will be back!

Updated waterfront 3bd/2ba on Balch Lake

AlyshaRating, 5 stars7 months ago
We had a wonderful stay at this charming lake house! The place was clean and comfortable and it truly felt like a home away from home. Our host was incredibly friendly and responsive, making the check-in process seamless. The bunk beds were a huge hit with the kids – they absolutely loved having their own little space! We had so much fun kayaking on the lake and even managed to do a bit of fishing. The peaceful surroundings made our stay special. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a quiet spot!

We had a great time. Got to kayak around the pond several times. The jet skis and other motor boats and the gravel place were a little loud at times. That was my only complaint.

Lakeside Lodge - a waterfront home on Lake Winona

EranRating, 5 stars6 months ago
We were two couples and enjoyed our stay at the lodge. It is well organized and located in a beautiful setup on the lake. A relatively short 30 minutes drive allowed us easy access to the white Mountains attractions. Vanessa was proactive on closing the open space above the bedroom doors just before we came - so this issue as reported in some other reviews has gone away… in short - highly recommended!

Private Lake House with Docks & Views for Days

Jennie RyanRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Fantastic spot. We stayed in the fall. It was quiet on the lake. We enjoyed SUPing and Kayaking. Was happy to find “one earth” natural grocer up the road a bit. We enjoyed a fire in the wood stove every night. The Loons were a special treat too. It is steep and lots of stairs to the water but worth the climb. :) Lea was so accommodating and responded immediately to every inquiry. Hoping to book again next fall!

Quiet Lake House

JessicaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We had an awesome stay at this cozy, comfortable cottage—perfect for two families after a full day on the slopes. Every afternoon, we came back to the quiet and warmth of the cabin, made great meals in the super-cute kitchen, built a fire in the wood stove, and played board games around the big table. The kids loved the bunk room (especially having their own book lights!), and everything was easy to find and use. The shower was great, the space was inviting and there were many thoughtful touches such as plenty of hooks for hanging ski gear! We really appreciated how the family updated the cabin while keeping its historic charm. Such a great spot—would absolutely stay again! Thanks for making us feel so welcomed and comfortable!

70 Acre White Mountain Estate – Panoramic Views

AndreaRating, 5 stars6 days ago
We splurged as a family of 4 w/ our chihuahua. This is the absolute perfect home for 2 or even 3 families. Derek was responsive from day 1 of booking until check-out. The home is gorgeous. It's just as the pictures show, if not better. The basement has a bedroom with 2 Q beds, and the cinema can easily sleep a few more. This was a man cave for our sons! Upstairs, the master bedroom w/bath was perfect. There are 2 bunk beds right next to the master & another bdrm across the house. It's quiet, peaceful, and serene. We walked the trails behind the home (bring boots or hiking shoes if it's been raining). When you pull into the drive, on your right is a rolling river. The hot tub was a huge plus and was relaxing. We loved the fire pit (bring a lighter or matches) and playing pool, air hockey, & shuffleboard. My son brought his xbox & hooked it up to the 85" TV in the cinema. We watched movies via our Netflix account. We hope to go back in the future!

We walked down the street to rek lis and had a great time. Out of all the Airbnb's I've stayed in I think this one has to be the best.

Perfect Location in North Conway Village

KenRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Our stay at Kearsarge Cottage was amazing. Its location and the size was what drew me to the listing, but what sealed the deal were all the 5 star reviews with stellar comments on the house and host Tom. We rented the house for a long weekend to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary with our children and grandchildren so being together was important. Between the house and its addition there was plenty of space for togetherness, but also separation for sleeping and bathrooms. The kitchens are modern and have every gadget and appliance imaginable. TV setup and WiFi was perfect. And we couldn’t have asked for a better location. A 2 minute drive to Cranmore for winter fun and super short walk to town (5-6 minutes) for restaurants and shopping. Tom and Nori are amazing hosts with what they provide for their guests. They were readily available, and answered messages quickly. I would not give a moments hesitation to rent this house again. Thanks Tom and Nori

My friends and I had a wonderful stay at this house hosted by Byron Property Management. They had snacks waiting for us when we arrived, Christina was kind and quick to respond when we had a question, and the house was exactly what was demonstrated in their advertisement. We are excited to come back next year and hopefully make this an annual trip at this property!

Your guide to Lake Winnipesaukee

All About Lake Winnipesaukee

In the hill-covered Lakes Region of the White Mountains, you’ll find New Hampshire’s largest lake and its 288 miles of shoreline. The shimmering blue waters of Lake Winnipesaukee are ideal for swimming, jumping off docks, and boating during the summer months. And you can spend days on a boat, hopping from island to island (there are 274 habitable ones) or simply floating the day away. The winter snowfall brings cross-country skiers and ice fishers.

But the appeal of staying near Lake Winnipesaukee isn’t merely the water but also the communities established on its shores. The largest city in the area is Laconia, where Victorian homes line the lakefront and Winnipesaukee Pier, chocolate shops, general stores, and vendors selling souvenirs offer a peek into the region’s heyday in the early 1900s. Just north of Laconia is the artistic little town of Meredith, and on the southeastern shore, you’ll find three small museums and colorful historic buildings in the town of Wolfeboro. At the northernmost part of the lake lies Moultonborough, a quieter and more rural town, where you’ll find some of the region’s most stunning European-style architecture.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Lake Winnipesaukee

Precipitation is high and steady throughout the year, with about seven days of rain each month, so be sure to pack waterproof layers and boots regardless of the season. The summer brings high daily temperatures with a bit of humidity that subsides as the sun goes down. It’s ideal weather for riding and boating, if you’re in town for the annual Motorcycle Week in June or to see prized boats at the boat show in July.

Fall is one of the most popular seasons for booking Lake Winnipesaukee house rentals as sweater weather returns and vivid foliage turns the area into an autumnal paradise. Winter brings plenty of snow, and the lake freezes over to make way for outdoor hockey games and ice fishing. Spring brings the big thaw and lots of mud, so you may want to pass up the hiking trails in favor of exploring the lakeside towns.


Top things to do in Lake Winnipesaukee

Laconia

Home to Weirs Beach, Winnipesaukee Pier, a drive-in theater, bowling lanes, arcades, and mini-golf courses, this lakeside city is the central hub of the Lakes Region. Dining options are plentiful, and you’ll find local restaurants specializing in farm-to-table cuisine, wood-paneled diners, cute cafes in residential neighborhoods, and lakeside steak and seafood lounges.

Winnipesaukee Scenic Railroad

For sweeping views of the lake and surrounding mountains that you can’t get from hiking or driving around, book a one- or two-hour train ride on this 19th-century rail system. You can board in Meredith or Weirs Beach, and there’s daily service during the summer, weekend rides throughout the spring, and even special fall foliage rides during the first months of autumn. Although you can snag some light snacks and drinks at the gift shop before you board, you’re also welcome to bring your own picnic on board.

Hiking

The Lakes Region is surrounded by temperate deciduous forests like the Belknap Mountain State Forest, where a popular trail will lead you up Mount Major. If you get an early start, you can beat the crowds and have the views of the lake to yourself.
