Gilford, New Hampshire
******This is an island property that requires the renters to have a boat to access the property.******* The property has a dock on the northeast side, and a dock and swim platform on the southwest side. Everywhere you look is a view of Lake Winnipesaukee.The main cottage is just under 1,000 square feet. There is a main bedroom with a queen bed and a half bathroom. The family room overlooks lake Winnipesaukee toward Mink Island. The kitchen has a stove, microwave, water cooler, and over looks the lake toward Timber Island. A deck wraps around the entire cottage and also connects the cottage to the water closet, and to the bunk house. The water closet is a building that has a sink, shower, toilet, and a washer and dryer. There is also an outside shower so you can get even closer to nature lol. The bunk house has two sets of twin beds, a daybed, and a TV. Outside the bunk house is its own deck with two chairs and a table. Great place to have a morning coffee. There are four kayaks, swim mats, floats, paddle boat that are available.
Linens, towels, purified water, paper towels, toilet paper are all included.
This was our second year spending a week in the summer at Cindy's place on Mark Island. The property is wonderful and the location is fantastic! We could not recommend this more. Thank you once again! - Dan and Kim Masse
Had a great time! Plenty to love and exactly as advertised.
My family and I stayed here for over a week and enjoyed the beautiful spot on Mark Island as well as the rest of Winnipesaukee. Cindy was a wonderful host and the house is equipped with all the thoughtful touches that make a family island vacation more enjoyable. There is plenty of dock space, wonderful swimming, and great fishing right off the dock for kids and adults. The kids loved the bunkhouse and we were able to spend time together as a family but still have some privacy and space when we wanted. The neighbors are very friendly and there are walking trails through the woods that run over the whole island to explore. Could not recommend it more!
We had the pleasure of staying at this cute compound for 3 nights. You can tell the place is loved by its owners because it’s filled with everything you need to play and relax on the lake. The house sits perfectly on a narrow strip of land with lake frontage on both sides! You can enjoy the sunrise on one side with calmer waters and the sunset on the other. Most camps on the lake sit in the shade for one part of the day but this gets sun all day long! This is also a pretty quiet part of the lake with a no wake zone on one side. We brought our paddle board and had fun exploring around Mink island right next door. The interior is also very comfortable with nice furniture and a modern bath house. The bunk house was the cutest with 5 beds, it felt like going to sleep away camp in there! The kitchen is well equipped and there’s a nice bbq grill. The outdoor table is covered so you can eat outdoors even in the rain! We were so thankful to Cindy and her family for sharing her vacation home with us!
We had a short window of time and the cottage was just what we hoped. Clean, efficient, adorable!! The owner was very accommodating and left no stone unturned making ease of entering and leaving! It was very welcoming and perfect location.
An amazing island location. Great communication, very easy all around. Would recommend.
Fantastic cottage clean modern plenty of water toys. Water front and back busy one side quiet other this also makes for cool night breezes from either side
We returned to this property for another summer vacation. This property is beautiful and offers a unique vacation experience. The owners were attentive and responsive and the property is just as wonderful as we had remembered it. Thank you for another memorable vacation!
Our family lives in New Hampshire and we are very familiar with the lakes region. This is the perfect island property. Tons of fun stuff to do. Location, location, location! This property is perfectly located we were a short boat ride to everything. Awesome docks with tons of space. My family loved it and hopefully we will be back soon. The owners are wonderful and super easy to work with and are true islanders.
The property has the feel of a lake cottage but with aspects of home (modern bathrooms, washer/dryer) that aren’t normally part of the lake cottage experience, and made our stay more enjoyable. The compound is immaculate and beautifully decorated with care and attention to detail. The owners were very hospitable.....they left us a s’mores kit to enjoy by the fire pit, and also left us a bottle of prosecco because we had just celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. The compound set up was perfect for a family with teenagers. The property is beautiful, in a quiet area of the lake that is calm and not heavily trafficked. Appreciated the outdoor equipment such as swim mats, kayaks, and other games that saw lots of use during our vacation. The owners were very responsive. This is a beautiful property and a lovely home. We enjoyed our vacation and this rental very much!
