About the host
Hosted by Kanchana & Suma
Hello!
Thank you for viewing our house. We fell in love with it when we bought it as it offered everything we thought a family would need for a vacation. We hope you create lasting memories in the house.
I manage the house with my sister, Suma. We have three kids in total and love hosting. We are New England natives and have lived in the area (CT and MA) for the past 20 years. We hope to meet your expectations for a joyful and relaxed vacation time.
Enjoy a great time in New Hampshire!
Why they chose this property
Welcome to your home away from home! Our huge and complete lakeside retreat offers impeccable lake views from the living room, two decks, hot tub, basement, and bedrooms. All living spaces are equipped with flat panel mounted TVs for your viewing pleasure.
Locke Lake offers unique experiences for every season. In the spring, enjoy fishing, kayaking, and hiking amidst blooming trees and vibrant nature. Summer brings swimming and more kayaking adventures, while autumn showcases the best fall foliage views. Winter offers ice skating and ice fishing opportunities. If timed well, you might witness wildlife sightings, meteor showers, and holiday fireworks!
Start your day with breakfast on the bedroom patio, enjoying peaceful lake views. The decks have remotely operated awnings for sunny days. The large backyard allows your kids to play outdoors safely, with multiple areas in the house to watch them. The beach area has two lounge chairs with an umbrella for relaxation while your little ones explore the water.
You’re welcome to use the water toys we've stored for you or bring your own. We offer three adult kayaks, two kid kayaks, one paddle boat, and basic life jackets. Enjoy the lake but at your own risk.
The backyard is equipped with a picnic table, chairs, charcoal grill, and outdoor fire pit for campfires and s’mores! After a busy day, snuggle up with hot chocolate or use the hot tub and admire the views.
The house is surrounded by nearby activities:
Lake Winnipesaukee Alton Bay - 15 min (Boating, Ice Cream, Scenic views)
Mt Major trail - 15 min (Hiking and Scenic views)
Gunstock - 30 min (Gondola ride, ziplining, skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing)
Day trips to White Mountains (Kancamagus Highway - 1 hour)
Everything NH has to offer
