The listing title says it all!
Our stay was one of the most relaxing vacations I've ever had. The house is exactly the way it is shown in the photos. There are no concerns about an upsell online only to be disappointed when you get there. The house is very charming with everything you need stocked and ready for you. The appliances were all high quality and working perfectly. They have a brand new Weber grill that we enjoyed all week. The hummingbirds drink from the feeder just a foot in front of you on the deck. There are new stairs to the dock that made it feel very safe to walk on. There was plenty of wood for the fire pit. The beds were very comfortable. Matt was very responsive and friendly. I wish there was a bit less shade as you really needed to be on the dock to get any sun, but the view was spectacular and we really, really enjoyed our stay!

A hidden Gem!
The lake cabin was lovely, it was quiet and really private. The property has a great fire pit patio that was fun at night. I highly recommend this property for either a fun week at the lake during the summer or a ski vacation at the winter!

Perfect place for a lake getaway!
We loved staying in this beautiful log cabin. It was just perfect for my family of 5. This area of the lake was quiet and each morning we enjoyed hearing the loons saying hello. We hope to be back next year. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Perfect vacation cabin on the lake
The cabin is equipped with everything you’ll need for a family vacation. The kids were excited to make s’mores with the provided supplies. We especially enjoyed the loons and views down the lake. We look forward to renting again!

Wonderful property & wonderful hosts
Matt & Linda were the perfect hosts; they thought of every detail and the house was unbelievable. They sent a detailed printout of things you would want to know before we even got there. Any questions were answered quickly. The view was wonderful - lots of days chilling and looking at the lake. I would give them 10 starts if allowed.

We had a fantastic vacation!
We loved spending the week at the Cabin, pictures don’t do the property justice. Set on a quiet private road with a lovely cared for front garden. We throughly enjoyed being here, our family spent a night as well and everyone had such positive things to say about the place. Everything was exceptionally clean; which is very important to us. The fire pit was fantastic, the supplied wood was dry and there was plenty of it. Dock was great, we tied off our rental all week and had a blast. The hosts were easy to communicate with and left s’more supplies for us! We would definitely stay again and again! Thanks for the great vacation! Jessica & Mike :)

Fun filled Lake stay
We had a great time staying at this property. The house was very clean and it was nice to offer bathroom towels, linens and paper goods. We spent most of our time outdoors. Grounds are sandy and rocky but most of the properties on the lake are. Pictures accurately portrayed the rental. The fire pit was a fun place to sit and relax and listen to the loons. Kids liked hearing their echoes across the lake! The lake is beautiful. We enjoyed the sand bar and water sports. Fishing was good too! A bit far from local stores and restaurants/food but that was ok with us. We appreciated being at the quieter end of the lake. Weather cooperated for the most part so that helped too. Would stay again!

Great stay!
We loved the house and had a wonderful time at the lake. The positives are many: • Great layout and clean as a whistle. • Four bedrooms are all very comfortable. • Great kitchen with everything possible needed. • Nice dining room that is perfect for group meals (and for working during the day if need be). • Excellent wifi and cell coverage. • Excellent heat and AC (we used both) • Wonderful location on the lake, close to the beautiful loon sanctuary. • Nice deck with easy access from the main living area of the house. • Nice dock for boat. • Awesome firepit area, including plenty of wood, which we used almost every night. (Nice touch leaving the makings for s’mores for us!) • Hosts are very hospitable and 100% responsive. There are a few things that can be improved. In full disclosure, because of the good communication with the host, I already mentioned these things and got a great response that there are plans to address them. • The final steps for access down to the lake and dock are not the easiest. Not a disaster, but you have to step over and around a big tree and root system in the way. I think all that's needs is a few wooden stairs. • The furniture in the family/living room is not comfortable. The couch and one of the chairs are OK, but the two chairs against the outside wall should be replaced. This would make that room much better for hanging out together there. • The master bed shower only trickles. Since the downstairs shower is really good, it's not a cabin-wide problem, so it should be readily fixable. Overall, we'd go back in a heartbeat. Super place.

My family and I stayed at this house for a week and it exceeded all of our expectations. The check-in/check-out process was the easiest I've ever dealt with, the owners were very kind and responsive, the house was beautiful, and the location on the lake was perfect for us.

Extremely relaxing and beautiful spot along Lake Winnisquam. We loved our stay here. The house was immaculate and equipped with everything we needed and more. Matt was amazing to work with and even left a spread of chocolate, marshmallows, and sticks for s’mores! This was our first time to Lake Winnisquam and we would definitely return. Views were beautiful – right across from Loon Island. Fun exploring the lake in the kayaks/canoe. Water was clean and a perfect temperature for swimming. Highly recommend this as a vacation spot!!!!

A wonderful week
Everyone had a great time in this beautiful spot. My grandchildren, one 6 year old and 4 year old twins, loved the kayaks and jumping off the dock. My only issue as Gramma was getting to the dock so I could swim. Very rough going and my daughter had to help me. Embarrassing for me.

Lovely Lake House
Lovely house in one of my favorite spots on Lake Winnisquam. Multiple areas (3, in fact) where you can enjoy the beautiful lake and gigantic trees including: a porch with comfy chairs, a large outside dining area and (closest to the lake) a beautiful seating area with a terrific wood-burning fire pit. The house itself is immaculately clean and well-equipped. This is the first lake house we've rented with Netflix which was a nice surprise. All through the rental process Matthew and Linda were warm and welcoming and responded to questions immediately. A terrific place to spend your vacation.

We had a wonderful time here on our family vacation! The home was spotless upon arrival and even better than the photos. The owners were very quick to respond and went the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed...and mail us the items left behind (Thanks Matt!!) The covered porch provided a gorgeous view & lots of hummingbird activity even on a rainy day. There was plenty of space for 8 people.

Beautiful Log Cabin
Mike and Linda were extremely helpful and quick to communicate with. Their log cabin is beautiful and located on the northern part of Winnisquam, which is the quiet end of the lake. Less boat traffic, but great for families and fishing. Dock is deep 4’ to 8’ deep so no issues docking a boat. The privacy of a wooded lot was fantastic and with multiple grills, patio furniture and fire pit, floats, kayaks, canoe, there’s plenty to do. Inside of the cabin had plenty of room for 6 adults and 2 teenagers . I was clean and fully stocked with everything you’d ever need. We’d stay here again if vacationing at Winnisquam

Winnisquam Family Vacation
This was a wonderful property shoreside just a short canoe/kayak ride to the Loon Sanctuary (we went everyday and were lucky enough to witness the pips during one of our sunset travels!). There is a kitchen and dining room with ample space and all the comforts of home. The patios with fire pit are a great space to entertain and relax. Lake temperature was perfect with great floats to enjoy the serene waters! Bugs in the evening and during our walks on forested road require protection. If anyone has mobility issues, getting down to the lake may be less accessible. We loved our stay here as a family and would recommend to anyone craving the beauty of a lakeside retreat! Thank-you Matthew and Linda. You made the experience easy and carefree!
