Anniversary stay
Disappointed about flat bike tires and no way to get kayak out of lake from dock. Pontoon wasn’t available but we were promised boat time on a return visit. Lovely home, well stocked and clean. Nicely furnished. Fire pit was lovely overlooking the lake. Screened in porch was greatly appreciated. We’d like to return to this location and be able to enjoy time on the water too.

Nice place to stay for a visit to Nashua.
Cosy and clean place to stay while visiting Nashua. The weather didn’t cooperate, but the house has a good view of the lake and is close to a paved trail for walking, exploring or biking with little kids.

Perfect small town lake house!
Highly recommended. What a restful trip we had! The hot tub fit two people perfectly. Temperature was great. Lake view was beautiful. We even braved the cold and made s’mores using the fire pit outside. The bathroom has heated floors which was a fun luxury. Couch was super comfy. Communication with the home owner was super easy.

Relaxing property, Great host
Regrettably we were only able to stay one night. There were so many things to enjoy. A beautiful walking path by the lake, bike trails (not paved/may want a gravel bike, although the property has bikes to use), kayaking and canoeing(available on the property), hot tub and fire pit to enjoy the lake and the stars. On top.of all that, the host was very friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend this property.

End of Summer Lake Trip
The location of the house was perfect! Small quite town and right on the lake!! We loved that the property had kayaks for guests to use and a hot tub! We took advantage of both and used the small fire pit every night! We were able to swim right off the dock, but we also took advantage of the small public beach on other side of the lake with the water volleyball court and our kids loved that! The house is small - but has everything you need.

We wanted a weekend on the water. The house was clean and everything worked. We were on the lake for hours each day using the optional floating devices. The hot tub was nice. We stayed up outside on the small dock to watch the meteor shower. Beautiful location.
