Private - Spacious - Peaceful

The view on the lake was great. We appreciated the use of the kyaks. The home itself is spacious, private, and peaceful. We would rent that property again.

Great stay

Great home. Amazing views. Everything you could possibly need with amenities. Attentive and communicative hosts. Off the beaten path, but there’s a general store within 10 minutes that has all the basics. Would highly recommend staying at this property and would stay again.

Good place for a family vacation

Each year we are joined by our three adult children, their spouses and children for a family week. This week we chose a lake house for our vacation. The house has a lovely location on a quiet NH lake. The water is clear and the bottom is sandy near the shore. Everyone enjoyed the kayaks, the swimming and the swinging rope/jump across the lake. The location is close enough to Gunstock and Lake Winnipesaukee for some additional entertainment and restaurants.

Nice retreat out in the boondocks

It was a nice place to stay with family We arrived at night and during rain. The road getting there is windy and difficult to navigate at night. I strongly suggest getting there during daylight Make sure you take all your food needs because stores to source food are very far

Lake House, Dream House

This house was perfect for our group of 10. Everyone throughout the weekend kept on saying that they wished they had a lake house like this one. The house itself was clean and had all supplies we may need. They had a number of boats that we could take out and have a blast on the water. Overall, this was one of the better vacation houses I have been to.

big family reunion

Pros: We loved the location of the house, the lake was lovely, and the decks were great. The boats and swimming were great fun. The bedrooms were spread apart so were quiet even with a big group. The kitchen was stocked very well with pots and pans. The family enjoyed the house. Cons: Vacasa was terrible to deal with. They would respond with a note saying they would get right back to us, then not get back to us. The third toilet was out of service. The internet was spotty. There were a lot of light switches to no where, and not a lot of lights, so the house seemed pretty dark.

Relaxing Lake house vacation

Loon Retreat is a well-kept home with 4+ bedroom areas and lots of space. The kitchen has plenty of pots & pans, utencils, modern appliances and a large table able to seat our group of 10; lots of books, artwork, games, binoculars, etc. We were very happy with the large back deck, 4 kayaks & canoe and easily accessed dock and swimming area. The lake is very clean. We were disappointed that we could not bring a portable firepit for s'mores --a first in our many years of lakeside renting, and that the indoor fireplace was not usable. Up to 2 dogs are permitted with the first dog being free and the second dog $242 for our 4 night stay. We were able to hear the loons calling, walked forest trails, attended a fun Farmer's Market.

Winter Getaway

This home was the perfect place for my family. My 5 grandchildren had plenty of room to play and relax in. It was wonderful to find so many games, puzzles, and books for everyone. The kitchen had everything needed for meal preparation. We found the house to be quite clean and comfortable for the 10 of us. So happy that we chose this home for our long weekend.
