Cottage vacation rentals in Lake Winnipesaukee

If you are looking for an idyllic lake house experience, this is it! We could have spent our entire trip just sitting on the porches—upstairs, downstairs, one screened-in porch, and the lovely dock. We used the kayaks and the paddle boat multiple times. The house was perfect for us because we are a close family of three, but if you need privacy from other guests, this wouldn’t be the ideal house as one bedroom opens into the other. The beds are soft and comfortable as is the sofa. Paula and Tim were extremely responsive and helpful. We would absolutely return to this house. It was difficult to leave the gorgeous leaves.

We had a wonderful time staying in Middleton, NH. The lake is beautiful!

Another wonderfully relaxing stay! We really enjoyed the new screened in porch for morning coffee, late afternoon snacks, and evening games. The rainy days were just as lovely as the beautiful ones. We enjoyed the cozy gas stove on the cooler days, and we just couldn't have been more delighted by the welcome note and gift upon our arrival.

My husband, 15 year old son and I stayed at Jim & Janet’s cottage #5 last week. I could not recommend it more! We had the best time. The check In/check out process was smooth. Jim & Janet are wonderful, friendly hosts who are super communicative. The location of the cottage was amazing being directly on the lake. The grounds are absolutely beautiful. The access to the paddle boards and kayaks was great and made for a lot of fun days. The cottage’s close proximity to Alton Bay is also a plus because it’s such a cute and easy to navigate area with a few restaurants and great scenery. The hosts’ local recommendations were spot on. We couldn’t have asked for more with our stay. The cottage was the cleanest rental we’ve been in so far. We got so much in that we wanted to and also relaxed with the beautiful scenery. It is such a hidden gem! Thank you Janet and Jim! We hope to return again!

The Place was Very beautiful, Calm and peaceful! Loved the Paddle boats and The ping pong table ! Very fun and relaxing! Felt right at home !

This was our third time we've been guests of Jennifer's. Similar to our previous experiences, the space was immaculate, well stocked and beautifully furnished. Before we even got there, Jennifer went out of her way to ensure we could check-in early! Jennifer is very responsive, thoughtful, and super friendly. We even had a small, last-minute request on the day we checked out, and she was able to accommodate us. We brought our boat which we were able to launch at the nearby public launch. We moored our boat on her mooring and were able to park our boat trailer onsite. We were able to easily cook meals in the well thought out and stocked kitchen. We also utilized the outdoor grill and enjoyed the fire pit for smores as a family. Jennifer's home had enough room for my husband and I, as well as our two teenage sons, without feeling on top of each other. The location can't be beat! the website won't let us fit our full gleaming review here but trust us when we say you won't be disappointed!

Great cabin in a great location. The area was very quiet and peaceful, a great place to spend a week of relaxation. We'd definitely stay here again!

Marina’s little cottage is a gem which we highly recommend. It is situated high above the peaceful and quaint lake providing interesting views. The sunrise while sitting on the dock was a favorite. A great place to get some reading done without everyday distractions. Everything was clean, neat and organized! The new kitchen was a treat! For a small place it is very spacious inside, beds and sitting areas comfy and everything one needs for a pleasant stay. Marina gets an A+ for communication. We may be back next year and will recommend it to friends and family. Please don’t hesitate to book this place for a relaxing getaway.

Dear Tim and Kimberly - I wanted to express how much we enjoyed our stay at your delightful two-bedroom cottage. The accommodations were not only beautifully furnished but also incredibly comfortable. The added amenities, including the pool, hot tub, and gym, made our stay even more enjoyable, offering plenty of options for relaxation and fitness. We also loved how close the cottage was to the local restaurants and the beach—it was the perfect location for a relaxing getaway. Your attention to detail made all the difference, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. I will definitely recommend your place to others and look forward to returning in the future!

Our stay at Chelsea and Mathew’s cottage was top notch. The communication and instructions on all things related to the cottage were detailed and clear. From prior to booking and throughout the stay the communication was excellent. The house was clean and well kept, charming and welcoming. The bonus features of the wood burning stove and hot tub made this a must stay location for us and we couldn’t have been happier with what they added to the overall experience. I highly recommend the spot for its proximity to Black Mountain, what the house offers and the hosts were fantastic. We’ll be back for sure!

Jessica was very communicative and her place was in a great location to access the area’s attractions. A comfortable home away from home. We enjoyed the pool and wish we had stayed longer. Thank you!

Nice private area, close by to a few small-towns for groceries, gas, etc. Property was very scenic and often only sounds that could be heard were birds. Slept 5 comfortably and never felt crowded. 10/10

we were very delighted with the accommodations. the view and area were serene and accommodated both adults and a young child. we will definitely try to reserve again next spring . Gregory was very responsive.

We had a great time staying here! The place was clean, and had everything we needed for a fun trip. The hosts were super friendly and easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back!

Absolutely enjoyed our stay. Will definitely visit again in the future. The hot tub was very relaxing and was the highlight of our trip.

The place had everything that you needed for a comfortable stay.

We felt right at home and Rick allowed us to bring our dog and two cats, a bonus not easily found. The rental was cozy but big enough for the two of us and 3 fur babies. The shower was nice and hot, the Wi-Fi was excellent and we had a great Roku TV that we easily streamed our services without issue. The furniture was very big and comfortable with throws available for added warmth. The bedroom was perfect with plenty of space for our clothes, a nice bed and new fresh bedding. The absolutely only challenge was the narrow, curvy driveway! Luckily, we had a good back up camera and the street wasn’t very busy. This minor issue is not enough to deter us from returning for another stay!

This place is perfect! The house is so cute and cozy we didn’t want to leave. The hosts left a hand written card and a bottle of wine for us when we arrived, which was so thoughtful. Beautiful views and tons of privacy. Would highly recommend this stay to anyone!

Great location and cozy home with great ambiance, decor, and all of the necessities. The spiral staircase and upstairs rooms felt much smaller in person but no major issues! If you're bringing dog(s) that may have noise sensitivity like ours sometimes do - note that the walls to nextdoor Airbnb are quite thin. The dogs also had difficulty on the stairs - one learned to go up and down by training and the other one had to be carried up and down 😂 Hosts were great!

Adorable, quaint, clean, well maintained house. Had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Host was very friendly and responsive.

A large, comfortable home with the ocean in sight! The beach was stunning and the area was so quiet and peaceful in the off-season. Some great restaurants and shops were still open too. We’d love to return one day.

This house was absolutely perfect for our visit to see family. We will definitely be staying here again! The house was spacious and perfect for having the grandparents over for dinner with enough space for everyone. It was perfectly centrally located for us and our families who live in Sunapee. Caitlin was beyond helpful when I lost the email with the house code and responded right away! Highly recommend this beautiful home!

Pebble Cottage was so peaceful yet close to everything. We kept ourselves quite busy locally and Cheryl's place was a perfect spot to unwind and relax at the end of a busy day. The host is a beautiful artist and an exceptional, sweet human being. We hope to return in the Fall. Thanks Cheryl!

I’ve stayed here a few times. I continue to enjoy all aspects of the property. Give it a try.
