Family-Friendly, Spacious Winnipesaukee Retreat with Stunning Views

This family-ready, classic cape on Lake Winnipesaukee’s Bear Island is a vacation home where you can “get away from it all” while still being close to the main land, grocery stores, and the Lakes Region’s best restaurants and activities.

Situated on a three-acre peninsula, Camp Chaos is accessible only by boat. The expansive living space consists of a main house and a two-story addition, open kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, outdoor shower, two sizable living spaces withTVs and lending libraries, a children’s library and play nook, two large fireplaces, and more.

Western-facing views means you can enjoy spectacular sunsets from the wrap-around deck and afternoon sun. The “Rusty Anchor” outdoor bar is cocktail hour ready and the large fire pit makes nightly S’mores a must.

The Camp Chaos peninsula is a short walk from Bear Island’s miles of walking trails and an easy 15-minute hike from St. John's on the Lake, a stone chapel that hosts pet-friendly services from Memorial through Labor Day. It’s also a quick boat ride and drive from beautiful downtown Meredith and a 15-minute boat ride from the Weirs Beach boardwalk.

Additional indoor perks include:

- A main house master bedroom with French doors that open onto the front deck and a spectacular view.

- A charming main house “bunk room” with one queen and two twin beds and lots of storage space.

- A second master bedroom (sleeps two) and additional bunk room with twin trundle beds and space to sleep four in the newly constructed Bunkhouse.
