We are delighted you are considering staying at Chestnut Hideaway. Our intention is to foster a welcoming space that offers you a home away from home during your stay. Whether your visit is for making memories with family or friends, indulging in an adults-only adventure, a romantic getaway, or listening to the laughter of your children playing, we offer a variety of ways to enjoy your time while staying with us. Relax with a cup of coffee or an evening cocktail while listening to the soothing sound of the decorative waterfall in the backyard (seasonal). Unwind inside by one of the two electric fireplaces, get cozy on the large sectional couch to watch television, or sit outside by the firepit making s’mores under the stars. Here is where you can also opt for a dip in the hot tub (available year-round)! The fully equipped kitchen and an outdoor grill allow for the opportunity to prepare a delicious home-cooked meal. Gather with friends and loved ones at the dining room table, sit on the screened in porch, or eat al fresco while sitting on the back deck. Our home is built for entertainment, so in addition to the layout of our single-level floor plan, we have thoughtfully set up the basement to be an indoor playground for all ages. We have lots of games to help you pass the time including a foosball table, ping pong table, basketball hoop, and board games. If you need a secluded area to check your email or do some work, we’ve got you covered! Our home has a dedicated area fully equipped with a desk, comfortable chair, large monitor, and printer. The room can be made quieter by closing the two doors that are separated by a hallway. Wi-Fi is fast and reliable. Winter, spring, summer, and fall, you will find an array of opportunities to explore and enjoy the Lakes Region. Our Welcome Book is inspired by the anticipated needs of our guests and aims to address any questions you may have, including recommendations for what to do/look forward to in the area. Additionally, we are only a message or call away should anything arise. Things to Note Every bedroom has ample closet space with hangers, fan, luggage rack, black out curtains, full length mirror, and multi-USB charging cables. There is a coffee maker, and we will provide some coffee to get you started. All bed linens/towels/paper products are supplied and will be onsite when you arrive. The hot tub is included with your stay and is serviced weekly. There’s nothing more relaxing than a nighttime soak while staring up at the starry sky. There is a smart television in the living room. Guests will need to use their own accounts to access tv/movies/streaming. Wi-Fi is fast and reliable for anyone who needs to work while onsite. The password is in the Welcome Book. We have a firepit onsite with chairs that you are absolutely welcome to use. We provide some complimentary firewood. If you need more, there are instructions in the Welcome Book on where you can purchase some. No parties or large gatherings onsite. Loud music/outside noise is not permitted after 9pm so that we can respect our neighbors. Please note that Chestnut Hideaway is surrounded by woods on 4 sides, which means in the warmer months there will be bugs/mosquitoes. It’s part of the charm of NH in the Summer. Guests access the property with a digital code provided 2 days prior to arrival for a contactless check in/check out. There is a detailed Welcome Book onsite with local attractions, outdoor activities, and restaurant recommendations. We will also provide this to you electronically just prior to your arrival. Gilford Town Beach is for residents only. However, Ellacoya State Park and Weirs Beach are both open to the public. Guest access to the home does include gradual stairs/steps, although the property itself is single-story. The home is located on a road with an incline, so in Winter keep that in mind.

Jul 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome! Two family’s over night for 2 nights after an Old Dominion concert at Bank Pavilion. Only a 10 min drive , perfect location. House was super clean, kitchen was stalked so you could make meals, bedrooms were comfortable, kids (and adults!) loved the game room and we spent the most of our time on the amazing screened in porch. Communication with the hosts was so easy! We will absolutely come back to the hideaway! ##### Emily R. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brenda S. Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Check-in was a breeze and available when expected. Was a perfect size for the three of us couples attending a concert and spending some time out on the lake. The amenities in the home were spot on. We felt welcome from the start. The owner was response. Loved the extra game room and screened porch. Should’ve stayed an extra day. We will consider that when booking again. ##### Brenda S. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cassandra H. Jul 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay! Our family, six adults and two kids 9 and 5 had a great time at Chestnut Hideaway! Great location. We were able to uber one night to Bank of NH Pavilion for a concert for a very reasonable price and a short drive. We spent most of the week going to Ellacoya state park. Be sure to reserve a spot during peak season. Nice short 10 min drive to the beach. Also not far from Laconia and Meredith center. House has a great layout for families with enough room for everyone to have some space but plenty of gathering areas. Kids especially loved the fun basement and the fire pit. Very clean and kitchen well stocked. 10/10 recommend ##### Cassandra H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Meagan S.
