FAQs

1. Is the map on VRBO accurate?

Answer: Not entirely. The property is on the same side of the road as the lake and Mirror Lake is closer to the house than it appears on the map. It is less than a minute walk from the house to the edge of the water. Mirror Lake is a fresh water lake in the White Mountains. Please note that while we are on the lake, we are also on a main road and you may hear road noise while staying at the house.

2. Can we swim, kayak, or fish in the lake?

Answer: Yes, Yes, & Yes! A single person kayak is available for use.

3. What do you mean by shared property?

Answer: Our suite is part of the Lakeside Condominium Association. It sits on 2.65 acres which is shared with other cabins. You have privacy in the condo and screened-in porch. You can also meet some great people down by the lake and at the fire pit (or have playmates for children) when you want to be more social.

4. With other cabins on the property, will we have privacy?

For the most part, yes. There are times when there are more and less people staying on the property. Weekdays tend to be quieter on the lake.

5. Are there other children on the property?

Usually there are other children there. Our children enjoy playing in the water with the other children, making smores by the bonfire, or playing a game of kickball.

6. During ski/snowmobiling season, who is responsible for snow removal?

We have someone who plows the driveway if there is more than a few inches of snow. We have shovels and salt available to clear paths. It is the responsibility of guests to remove snow & ice from pathways.

Beautiful Visit In The White Mountains!

Our stay at this property was wonderful! I was reluctant to come for our scheduled week due to a gloomy extended weather forecast, however, the first two days were just a bit gloomy in the beginning, and then turned to beautiful, sunny, Autumn days, for the remainder of our vacation. This was our second stay at this property, and it was a repeated, relaxing and peaceful stay. We loved going down to the lake, grilling our dinner with a grill that is provided by the lake, and watching the sunset. The accommodations in the VRBO itself, are very comfortable, and the view of the lake from the living room picture window, is awesome. Staying at this VRBO location is ideal; it is central to many activities and tourist attractions in the surrounding White Mountains areas. The Autumn foliage did not disappoint on the property grounds, and witnessing the reflective colors in Mirror Lake was absolutely beautiful! We so enjoyed the comfortability of this home by the lake, and experiencing memorable activities in the area.

a slice of heaven!

beautiful property and incredible amenities! the 2 person kayak easily accessible on the gorgeous peaceful lake was the highlight of my trip, as well as the refreshing water for swimming. we even saw 3 loons and 2 bald eagles! the home was well appointed and very clean, comfortable beds and couches, stunning view of the lake and trees right out the window. Pillows were all very full and a bit too high for our liking, but nice quality. There was 1 ac in the main living space, but since there was a heat wave, the bedroom got a bit too hot at night when the door was closed without ac there as well, fans were provided. main room felt spacious with its open concept, bedroom a bit small but still very nice with lots of drawers to put things away, and a small space to hang up clothes.would highly recommend and hope to come back again:)

Weekend getaway

A perfect space for my best friend and I. We loved the full kitchen, the amount of seating available, the comfortable beds, and the beautiful view of the lake. It had everything you could need from dishes to pots and pans, cooking spices, an abundance of towels, and so many games! It was comfortable and relaxing.

Two night gig

Enjoyed the view and chairs by the lake. Having access to the kayak was a welcome addition. Kitchen counter felt a little cluttered and no kitchen table. Well supplied spices and general furnishings. Nice deep sink for cleaning up dishes. Second microwave on counter because built in one was broken. Close / convenient to Weathervane theatre

Comfortable, Affordable and Modern

Overall 10/10 would stay again. Love the lake and the general setting. The place was easy to find via Google maps and/or Waze, though the provided instructions prior to arrival were also very detailed. The place was everything you would expect and need from a STR, clean, comfortable and quiet. Internet speed was better than expected! I didn’t even need to contact the hosts. Thanks again to my hosts. Y’all’s place rocks!

A Great Place to Stay!!!

I am so happy that I chose to stay here instead of a hotel. The condo is super cute and spacious. Everything was exactly as shown and described. While it is on the main road, we were not bothered by the sounds of cars passing by at all. The best thing though is the price. Staying here was definitely cheaper and more convenient then staying in any of the hotels in the area. Along with the great price came the privacy and space of a small home compared to three of us being crammed in one small hotel room. I would highly recommend staying here if you plan on visiting the area.

lock on door

The handle for opening the door was broken. Had no key in box. Owner did not respond to message of the situation. Also did not have broom to sweep the floor. The place is very nice & clean. Our grandsons loved the water being just steps away from the water. Great games.

Cute and cozy

We had a great time here. The place is cozy and had everything we needed. The view from the window to mirror lake was beautiful. My kids had a fun time running around, sitting in the chairs and rolling down the nice grassy hill out back. We come to whitefield every year for a club we are in, we were literally 5 mins from our event. The town has some cool stores and a ice cream place that was packed. We also eat at grandmas kitchen every time we come and it was two seconds away! We would definitely stay again!

Beautiful Autumn Foliage Vacation!

We had a lovely stay at the property; not only were the accommodations nice, the locality here at Whitefield centered around everything we experienced. Even though I had planned our tours and itinerary prior to arriving to the White Mountains, I really appreciated the brochures of surrounding places to visit, that the owners had on display in the rental. We even went to Stowe, Vermont for a day, which was only an approximate 90 minute drive from the property. Our foliage vacation in the White Mountains was absolutely beautiful! Spending time at Mirror Lake, just steps away from the rental, was very peaceful too.

My husband and I stayed here while we were in the area house-hunting. We were also working the whole time. The wifi was great with no issues and the lake was beautiful to visit when we wanted to relax for a bit! It was also very nice that pantry staples were provided—so helpful! Felt like staying at a friend’s place.

Clean and Cozy

We stayed here for a long weekend while in town for a wedding. The space was clean and beds (even the sofa bed) were comfortable. While we didn't do any cooking, the kitchen was very well equipped with dishes, pots and pans, and plenty of staples like cooking oil and spices. The location right off Route 3 was easy to find and convenient to the wedding venue. There was not much road traffic at night and the neighbors were very quiet. We were disappointed we didn't have a chance to get out on the lake with the kayak. This is a great stay for a couple or small family!

Great getaway/wedding weekend

This property far exceeded expectations. My date and I attended a wedding locally, and my daughter and son-in-law came along for a mini-vacation. They are both in the medical field, and it was a great place to unplug. The property is beautiful, the lake was clear and warm. We used the kayaks, and the kids brought paddleboards. We swam and sat in the sun. We got to meet some of the neighbors and shared a drink and a fire. My daughter accidentally locked us out, and one of the other property owners helped us get ahold of the owner, who answered quickly! Highly, highly recommended for a romantic getaway, or fun weekend with the kids. Cannot praise this property enough. I will be back!
