Wonderful property. The home was very clean and tidy with all the amenities we needed. A large lawn to let the kids and dogs run around, and a wonderful view of the lake from the deck for my husband and I to relax and take it all in. We will definitely be back!
Our family had a wonderful stay at this property. It's clean, modern interior, and the balconies are in great shape. Probably the best view we've had from a rental. We would certainly stay again.

Gorgeous House with Amazing Views
We absolutely loved our stay. It was a perfect getaway for a girls weekend. We couldn't have asked for a more relaxed setting with such a perfect view. We all spoke about wanting to come back and enjoy the beautiful home!!
The house is beautiful and had everything needed for your stay. The view is absolutely stunning 😍 The check in process ran very smooth with the property manager right down the road. Excellent property!!

Fall Weekend
Lovely home. Perfect spot for a getaway. House was beautiful, home away from home.
Great location. Great views of mountains and lakes from house.
Truly, what we saw online in the photos was exactly how it looked in person. A beautiful, well-maintained home. Gorgeous view of the lake. Highly recommend!
Property just as described. Excellent views, house had everything necessary & then some. Communication was great & the early check in was much appreciated given our 2nd day was a washout weather-wise. Would definitely recommend

Very comfortable stay
We had a lovely stay in Carolyn's house. It is comfortable and pretty, spacious, with a lot of natural light. The views of the lake are stunning and makes the deck a fantastic place for dinner/breakfast. There are toys and board games for the little ones, which was great as we were travelling with children. Communication with the host was pleasant and easy and we felt very welcome.
Carolyn’s place was perfect for our vacation to Gilford, NH. The house was clean and exactly as expected! Rebecca met us shortly after our arrival and was wonderful as well. I would recommend this home and would definitely stay here again! My only “advice” is to be careful with the hot water - it can get extremely hot!

Peaceful
Lovely and peaceful we enjoyed our time near the lake. Carolyn is SUPER responsive!! She answered any/all questions quickly!! Great customer service!
The location is perfect, we attended a concert at nearby Bank of New Hampshire pavilion a short 10 minute drive, the beach is 5 minutes away and Gunstock right down the road. Tremendous views from the various decks. Caroline and her sister could not have been more accommodating. Great time
This house is beautiful! The location is perfect, the views were to die for and the house had so much to offer! I was absloutely blown away when we arrived. The caretaker of the home was so sweet and very informative. The beach was gorgeous and so peaceful. The back yard has a beautiful fire pit which was great to spend time outside by!
We will definitely be back, 10/10 for this rental!
This was a great rental, the owner and caretaker are awesome! We will be going back!
My only complaint is the beds are a little uncomfortable and the deck furniture too. Just needs updating . everything else was PERFECT!! worst case I bring a mattress topper!
The road in is a little scary on a motorcycle but we found the back way. Worth the tight turns.
We had a fantastic 4 night stay with close friends! This house was truly beautiful with wonderful amenities and just breathtaking views of Lake Winnipesaukee! It was well located in a quiet area, yet close by to shopping, restaurants and the Bank of NH Pavilion, where we had concert tickets to a great show. Carolyn was very easy to communicate with from the start and made sure we had everything we needed. Rebecca welcomed us upon arrival and suggested some great restaurants nearby! Great stay, we would definitely return! Thank you very much!

This house was perfect for my sons, daughter in laws and grandchildren. The house was very clean and the lay out is perfect. We enjoyed the deck every morning and night. The private beach was wonderful.
Carolyn was a gem to work with. Rebecca her assistant was there in minutes when we needed her. Thank you so much ~ we will be back.

About the host

I am a Maine native with relatives in the Gilford NH region. For an outdoor enthusiast, this house is a dream come true! I enjoy several weeks a year here.
Why they chose this property
The views are stunning, just sitting on the deck and looking at the lake and hearing the sounds of nature made me fall for the property. I felt like this house had everything I was looking for, open living room with lots of windows, very large decks for entertaining and a spacious yard with beautiful flowers. I love the feel of the town of Gilford it has a wonderful New England charm.
What makes this property unique
The location of this house is so ideal, in just minutes you could be enjoying the many hiking trails, relaxing at a beach with beautiful views or taking in a concert at Meadowbrook. When you are at the house you feel like you are in a quiet paradise.
