The Silver Lake Timber House is located across the street from pristine Silver Lake, a 3 mile long river fed lake just 20 minutes south of Conway at the entrance to Mt Washington Valley. Silver Lake is one of the cleanest & deepest lakes in NH with a large sandy association beach just a 2-3 minute walk away. Other 'lakes' in Madison are actually ponds. The association beach area has beautiful mountain views toward Mt Chocorua, the Sandwich range and all the way north to Mt Washington. There are trails for hiking and mountain biking. Since East Shore Drive is a dead end road the traffic is light making for a nice place to walk, run or bike.

There are plenty of nearby restaurants, stores, golf, driving range, other local attractions within minutes of the home. The village of Conway and North Conway with more shopping, restaurants
, skiing, golf and other attractions and activities is a scenic 20-30 minute drive north.

Can’t say enough great things
We had an absolutely great time staying at Paul’s house. Everything looks exactly as pictured. Beautiful backyard and woods, huge entryway perfect for ski season or the lake, and homey atmosphere that is great for unwinding and having fun. We stayed for the month of February to be closer to Attitash mountain for skiing. It’s about a 40 minute drive, mainly backroads. Loved staying here!

Awesome home - Great Location - Incredible Host
My family (6 adults) stayed at Paul's Lake House in Mid January 2025 for a bit of skiing and a bit of winter hiking. His home is fantastic - the pictures are accurate but once you arrive and experience the place it is SO MUCH BETTER!! Super comfortable, great architecture and very well appointed. Communications with Paul are excellent. I had a few questions pop up in the weeks / months before our stay and each time Paul got back to us within a few hours. So easy to work with!!As for location, the home is really well situated to hit some local ski slopes, explore the woods and lake and get into North Conway for the "tourist" stuff. I strong recommend staying at this home and especially working with it's owner, Paul.

Christmas Getaway
We couldn't have chosen a more perfect place to enjoy our Christmas holiday this year. The home was lovely and perfectly stocked for a carefree few days. Paul was quick to respond to us when we had questions and was also kind enough to leave us a tabletop tree and lights for decorating. It even snowed the first night we were there making for a true lakeside wonderland. The kids have already asked if we can return again soon. Loved it

Fall Trip
We had a great experience! We went during the fall to see the fall foliage and do some hiking. The house was centrally located about 50 minutes to an hour between the Kancamagus Highway/byway and Conway/Mount Washington area. This gave us the chance to go to both places and enjoy the views and hike both areas. Paul was easy to contact and the house was exactly as expected. Beautiful wood inside and everything was clear to follow regarding check in/out and any additional details about the house. Definitely would recommend to others.

Great house and location
The house is cozy and practical! It’s also well stocked unlike some other homes where you have to run to the store for basics. I like the first floor views of the lake. The owner was super nice. The only concern is really thin walls. I thought a kid was crawling on our floor when there was a kid in the bedroom above me.

Serene lake house
The house is extremely well maintained, well stocked and incredibly tidy. It is obvious this house is well taken care of by the owners. We enjoyed using the kayaks and canoe with life vests. It was just our family of 4 but there was enough space for us to have traveled with another family with several kids. The location is convenient to North Conway but feels more serene and off the beaten path. The lake has several homes on it but it feels very quiet (even on a holiday weekend) and family friendly- very few noisy jet skis or motor boats. The lake water is very clean and not too cold.

It has become our tradition to stay here for the holidays! The best value between Lake Winni, the White Mountains and the Kancamangus Trail! A dream location for hikers, skiers and photographers. The rental has every amenity you can imagine. And the beauty .. equal to or better than Squam Lake (On Golden Pond), 30 minutes away! An absolute treasure!

Thanksgiving getaway
Silver Lake is a hidden gem .. scerene with quick access to hiking trails and scenic views (and polar swims for the adventureous)! We booked a year ago and needed to cancel last minute due to COVID, Our host enabled us to rebook the following year without any extra fees or penalities. The property has everything one could want .. foosball, ping pong, pool table, fireplace, cable TV and every kitchen accessory (including spices, tea, blender, mixer ,, you name it) needed. Even the tap water was excellent! The world is a big place with many places to see but this was a must return to adventure. Don't be fooled by the market price .. it is worth every penny. We created a memory with our family that will last a lifetime! Thank you Paul!

Exceeded Our Expectations
I travel the world working at a major airline and I’m the most pickiest person and I admit it!! This property exceeded not only My entire families expectations, but mine as well!! The cleanness and cozy feeling was very inviting. Although we only stayed two short nights we wished it was longer but treasured every minute. We learned our son’s friends family owned a house on the same street. Small world!! It was nice to see my boys not only playing in the game room but also breaking out the traditional board games!!! No phones or electronics!!! The linens, furniture, & beds were up to date and not old. The pictures don’t do any justice. This property is Spectacular and wayyy bigger than the pictures. It’s nice and bright and has amazing architecture too. We wish it was open for a week day in the summer of 2023😢We would 110% rent this property again. Thank You for an amazing stay🥰

Perfect getaway
We LOVED staying at Paul and Cindy’s house. It was spotlessly clean and very well stocked. Our friends that stayed with us couldn’t believe how everything was included including linens and how the kitchen included everything you need. We loved having the use of the two kayaks and the canoe. There are wonderful hiking trails a short stroll from the house and you’ll be serenaded by the sounds of the loons on the lake. Yes, we will be back.

Excellent house and location
For a second year, four adult friends used the house as a base for our driving school at Club Motorsport. There is much more to the house and lake than we used, since we spent little time there. Nevertheless, it was just what we wanted: great location, clean rooms throughout, ample space, great kitchen/dining area, and comfortable inside and outside seating. Highly recommended.

Silver Lake happy place
I have a fondness for the Silver Lake beach which is so family friendly. I vacationed there decades ago with my little ones and now they are grow with families of their own! I am delighted to be able to share these memories with my grandbabies, swim to the dock, listen to the loons, kayak and just chill by the lake. It was a wonderful vacation home, complete with ample towels, a washer and dryer and a fabulous indoor family area too. Thank you Paul for such a wonderful offering.

Ideal When Driving at Club Motorsports and More
The house was ideal for our group of five adults who participated in a performance driving school at Club Motorsports in Tamworth. We were at the track for two very full days so we didn’t tax the property much. We basically slept or sat on the front porch and chatted as the sun went down. I can see how adults and families who are looking for a base when doing more in the White Mountains would also find it a great location and facility.

About the host

Hosted by Paul

Host profile image
When we built this home in 2007 we wanted to construct something unusual that reminds us of the rugged NH wilderness yet provides all the comforts of home. We built The Silver Lake Timber House the same way a barn would have been built over 200 years ago - using large Eastern White Pine timbers that are pinned together with Oak pegs using handcrafted techniques passed down over the years. Of course modern amenities such as insulation, high efficiency windows, latest in plumbing and heating, and meticulous finishes were added.

Why they chose this property

We love our home and it's convenient location in the NH Lakes Region and also at the gateway to the White Mountains. The view from the lake looking at the White Mountains to the north and sunsets reminds us of how great this location is. We enjoy the letters and notes from our guests that enjoy their stay at our home as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

There's always something to do outside or inside year round! Silver Lake is absolutely stunning with sandy beaches and cool, clear, clean water. The view from the lake toward the White Mountains is amazing and the sunsets are magnificent!
