About this property

Winnipesaukee Vacation Home For Entire Family W/ Private Beach And Dock

The best location on the lake! By boat, you are less than 30 minutes to each town dock—a 5-minute boat ride or 3 miles by car to weirs beach. The house has plenty of space for the entire family and some friends. With 68 feet of sandy beach, breath taken views, and a dock for your boat, the property will not disappoint. You are 12 minutes to Gunstock for skiing in the winter, or you can ride snowmobiles to Canada. The house has 3 bedrooms and a loft. House can accommodate 21 people in Beds. Kids are welcome—the house very close to the water, and limited steps to get to the water and beach. Enjoy sitting on the covered patio, just steps from the water. It also has a side yard great for lawn games and just hanging out.

Taken reservations for Fall/Winter/Spring. Must book at least two nights. I will allow Early check-in on Friday and Late check out on Sunday to get 3 full days.

Summer reservations are booked from Friday to Friday. We only book 2 summer weeks, so please act fast. We also allow weekday rental. Monday-Thursday (Friday) half the price.

Amazing Time On The Lake
Had a great week with the family. Kids swam daily at the private beach on our doorstep. Owner gave access to kayaks and all beach toys. Located close to restaurants and activities. There are 12 of us and the house was plenty big for all 3 families.

Perfect weekend on the water with friends
We really enjoyed our stay. Being able to walk outside and go to the water on those 90 degree days were ideal. We also enjoyed being able to dock our boats and jet-ski with ease. The inside was great with most guests being able to stay in a bedroom and the three refrigerators and other kitchen amenities made it easy for us to cook and store all of our food and drinks.

Great for the whole family!
We stayed for a long weekend to celebrate my husband’s 40th birthday. The whole family was able to stay and there was plenty of room for everyone. The location is perfect and we had a wonderful time playing on the beach and in the water. We couldn’t get over how big the house was and really enjoyed having multiple kitchens and bathrooms. We highly recommend this property!

Can’t beat the private beach and location
This was our second time staying here and had another wonderful vacation. We spent every day on the private beach swimming, floating, and fishing and took short boat trips to Naswa Resort for dinner and Weirs Beach. Ended the nights with campfires. Great for all ages! The beds are comfortable and numerous, with a good amount of beds larger than twin. The 3rd floor living room has sky lights, so I just suggest eye masks if you sleep in that room. The two washer/dryers are life savers. For all the amenities, I feel it is reasonably priced. Thank you again for sharing this great property!

Awesome Location!
Fantastic location! Nice beach and dock arrangement. Terrific lake access if you have a boat. We launched at Fay's marina and it was a short trip over to the house. This place is huge-tons of beds and everyone reported that their beds as comfortable. Parking was easy. We parked a boat trailer and three cars and had plenty of room.

Another Amazing Stay On The Lake
Perfect place for adults and children. Plenty of room for our entire family and owners have done a great with the property. The living space is very comfortable. Easy access to the private beach and the dock was great for fishing for me and my grandsons. Very clean inside and out. Kids and adults spent lots of time in the water and no need to keep running out unless you want to. 3 generations of my family vacation here and can’t wait to come back.

An Amazing Time
The location of the property was absolutely perfect. Our kids enjoyed fishing off the dock, paddling in the bay, and playing in the water. We caught two small-mouth bass and watched the sunrise from a morning paddleboard session. Although the interior layout was not what we expected, there was plenty of room for everyone, and we all had a blast.

Winniderby Headquarters
For the second year in a row, a group of our family/friends stayed at Michaels property for the Winniderby fishing tournament and we were not disappointed. The place is perfect for enjoying the lake and the entire area. It has plenty of beds, kitchen space and room to spread out. It also has everything you need for a group retreat and great access to the lake. Kudos to Michael and his family for letting us enjoy another successful fishing weekend. Our entire group was super impressed by the accommodations and thankful for the opportunity to enjoy a stress-free trip. .

Great Place and Location
Phenomenal vacation stay! Very pleased with the rental and host was very responsive/accommodating. Would definitely book here again and recommend to others looking for a place to suit various age groups (Infant to Seniors). There is a 1st floor bedroom/minimal stairs to access lake), a sandy beach area with walk in lake access, which is a plus for families with young children, special needs, elderly. Exactly as advertised, and the host provided wonderful outdoor water activities for kids/teens. We were also able to dock our boat rental which was convenient. The water play pad, kids tube, and kid/adult kayaks/canoe made the trip! A first time experience that provided great memories for the kids. Everyone was able to have plenty of space and work remote without being disturbed. Neighbor was friendly and informative on local lake conditions and safety. The host is very responsive and kind with communication. Highly recommend!

Wonderful location and property
I'm telling you, the pictures don't do this house justice. This place was enormous!! We had 11 people with us and we all slept comfortably in our own beds. There were 4 floors. The downstairs had a bedroom which was perfect for my grandparents. Second floor had a HUGE family room, kitchen, 2 fridges, and a bedroom/bathroom. Third floor had living room with a bed and 2 futons, a kitchen, bathroom, and another bedroom with 3 beds. Loft (4th floor) had a bed. Every room was SO comfortable with Acs in each. There was so much room so everyone could have alone time if need be. The lake was beautiful and we loved swimming everyday and having a fire at night. Michael was VERY quick to answer any and all concerns. I would 100% return.

Great lake/beachfront location
We had a lovely stay here--the waterfront and sandy beach can't be beat, and it's super close to restaurants and the more busy towns of Gilford/Laconia/Meredith. The house is huge and has a quirky layout but worked well for our small family group of 5 for this visit. It was nice having access to beach toys for our kiddo as well as canoes/kayaks although we didn't know ahead of time to bring our own life jackets and the paddles/oars had already gotten packed away for the season for our September visit, so we probably would have used them more had we known to prepare! I noticed that some furniture had been changed since the photos in the listing but that didn't make a difference to us. The beds were quite comfortable with plenty of linens, towels, etc. Multiple king beds in one place is a huge plus. Larger groups may want to inquire for more details on sleeping arrangements since not every space is 100% private. And as is obvious through the description and pictures, there are lots of stairs between 4 floors and the beach, so that may be tougher for some older family members with limited mobility. Next time I might bring some room darkening window coverings or at least an eye mask so the kiddo doesn't wake up so early as some sleeping areas are very bright with skylights and huge windows with a beautiful view! Michael was super quick to respond to any messages and we appreciated flexibility on check in/out times. Hope to come back again! The location is a gem for sure.

Great family getaway!
This property was perfect for our family. Bottom floor had a bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen which made things easier for the older members of our family who have trouble with stairs. Plenty of comfortable beds for the whole group and plenty of storage for food. There were games and puzzles to entertain us during our one rainy day. The other days were spent mostly outside on the beautiful beach using the many water/beach toys provided. The dock was in mint condition and very easy to pull our boat up to. Plenty of seating to accommodate everyone. We had someone who still had to remote work a couple days and the multi floor style of the home made it very easy to do so and have quiet while being able to enjoy the view while they worked. There are a lot of stairs, but the bathrooms on every level and the kitchens on both the first and second floors allowed us to not necessarily be constantly running up and down. We also had an 18 month old and appreciated that the stairs on the middle floor had doors to both sets that could be shut so we weren’t paranoid about him going on them. Very clean and comfortable and family friendly. For all the amenities the price was very reasonable. We would definitely book again.

Fall foliage trip to New Hampshire
Overall very nice experience staying at this vacation house right by the water. As a host Michael is very responsive and addressed all my queries in a timely manner. Five families stayed with kids and few old grandparents. While we went for the trip to Kanc the older folks stayed back and enjoyed the beautiful Lake Winnipesaukee views from the living room. Would love to stay again, especially during summer vacation as we could notice kayaks and water toys for everyone.
