We had a FABULOUS time staying at this extremely roomy, beautiful home on the lake. It is placed right around the corner from the Sunapee State Park allowing for summer swimming, boating, hiking, zip lining or winter skiing, snowmobiling, hiking, and snowmen. We rented the boat they listed for rent and went to a restaurant on the lake for dinner one night. The views are STUNNING! At night, walk down to the dock, (3 houses down from this house: easy walk with nice people if you bump into any. We met a neighbor) ...anyway, go to the dock and look at the stars - the Milky Way lights up the sky and it is memorizing! The house itself was much larger than what we expected. The master is surrounded by windows so you can enjoy the awesome NH sunrise. We used this house as our hub as we spent a week looking for our permanent NH home. It was perfect! New London is 15 minutes away (great little town that you could spend a day milling around in). Lakes, hiking trails, little shops...it’s all within minutes of this home. Or, just sit in the quiet and enjoy the peace and serenity it offers.
Everything worked great, we brought our dog, Maui, who made it her own while we were there. We couldn’t have been happier with our choice of houses to rent. And, for the area, excellent price!
A couple of things to keep in mind but not negatives. It is a short walk to the dock...about 3 houses down and the houses are very close to each other. We only saw one person. LOL Also, AT&T cell service does not work in the Sunapee area. If you have it, make sure you can make data calls or just enjoy being unplugged.
The host was fabulous! We had trouble getting into the house. It’s a smart lock and, with no service, that became a problem. He was on it immediately and we were in within minutes! We also asked to stay an additional day and they were accommodating and easy to work with so we could. Kitchen has everything you need if you wanted to stay in and cook. We grilled outside two nights out of the 6.
If you are looking for a central point, a wonderful space to call home while you’re away, we say this is the place. I know I sound over the top. But, when reading up on where to stay I read everyone’s comments so I can make a wise decision when it comes to renting from others. This was an awesome experience and we feel it should be known so others can make an educated choice. Have fun in NH!!! We LOVE it!
