About this property

Lakefront Purple Cottage

Experience the ultimate beach getaway at our newly renovated Purple Cottage. This charming studio-style cottage boasts a queen-size bed and a twin sleep sofa, perfect for a couples' retreat or a small family vacation. The kitchenette allows for convenient meal preparation, and the screened porch is the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or a relaxing evening.

With vaulted ceilings and a newly tiled shower, the Purple Cottage is bright and welcoming. But the best part? It's just steps away from the sandy beach! Imagine waking up to the sound of the ocean waves and spending your days lounging on the shore or exploring the surrounding area.

And the best part? We welcome furry family members too! So don't forget to bring your beloved pet along for the trip – they deserve a vacation too.

Book your stay at the Purple Cottage today and make unforgettable memories at the beach.

Vacation!

I come to The Cottages at Harvey Lake every year for at least a week. It’s a wonderful location, quiet lake, close to restaurants, nice little beach with access to kayaks, and very pet friendly. Nancy Carver is super nice, greets you when you check in and is very quick to respond if you need anything. Love coming here!

Camp not Cottage

The owner was very nice and accommodating first allowing us to move up check-in one day and then refunding payment when we were dissatisfied and checked out early. The owner moved us to the orange cottage from the purple cottage booked because it needed renovations. It was clean but I wouldn't describe it as a quaint cottage or even rustic cabin, owner called it a camp. No blinds or curtain in bathroom; blinds on front door kept breaking, gap under front door and window AC unit; screened porch but gap in floor all together bugs/creatures could have easily gotten into unit. 2 burner stove couldn't heat soup. Dining table tucked in a corner had 2 chairs but only room for 1 to sit. Two beds with around walk around space only. Overall cramped and just not functional.

About the host

Our CottagesOur cottages have not only been a part of our family’s history, but are truly integral to the Town of Northwood’s history.  As the story goes, the 200 year old “Main House”, was considered to be a favorite resting spot for travelers heading through to Concord across the First NH Turnpike.   Later, the cottages were built to allow vacationers to enjoy the one of the best kept secrets of lake getaways.  We’ve kept that hometown charm and feel which allows you to enjoy the same, simple lifestyle, which our grandparents may have enjoyed.  Of course, we’ve added some expected conveniences such as    Wi-Fi, satellite TV, and climate controlled cottages.  Each cottage enjoys a fully unobstructed water view and frontage on the Lake.  Inside you’ll find everything you need for your vacation getaway including linens, towels, soaps, shampoo, and a kitchen that includes everything you need to prepare that fantastic breakfast, lunch or dinner!  Outside, is your own gas grill and fire pit for that romantic campfire.  When you awake each day, you can enjoy taking out a kayak or sit with your family to enjoy the sunrise on a perfectly calm lake.  If you are planning a large family gathering, or even if you want a little extra space, consider the “Main House” as your destination.  The home offers you room for up to 16 guests yet is economically priced to create that romantic getaway for you and your “best friend”. We hope you agree with us that The Cottages at Harvey Lake are truly “Where family memories are made!”  

Why they chose this property

We are centrally located, It is an easy ride to many locations in New Hampshire and Massachusetts

What makes this property unique

We are a family owned business and are here to make you vacation perfect! It is a great place on the lake for all. We are also Pet friendly.
