The first floor provides a dining room / living room, as well as kitchen and library. Washer and dryer are in their own space on the first floor. The dining room features a large table with seating for 18, as well as a gas fired wood stove to keep the space cozy for winter ski trips. The second floor has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, situated along a long hallway with stairs to the kitchen and front entrance room in the classic style of an New England inn. On the third floor, guests have a bathroom and their choice of 4 bedrooms. A large porch wraps around the outside and provides extra space outside for eating and relaxing in the summer months.

Awesome house in a great location!
We had a great time! The house is exactly as described, fully stocked with everything you need, enough space for 15+ people, and in a great location! You can walking to a local restaurant and bar with live music and happy hour - or take a 5 minute drive to the MTN. The house has a separate apartment with full kitchen and two bedrooms which was so awesome when traveling with babies. The house was INCREDIBLY baby/kid friendly. Spencer was a great host and very responsive/helpful. Would totally reccomend for a big group! We will be back!

A memorable Thanksgiving!
Melissa and Spencer were super hosts. The Harbor House lived up to it's description- we were 15 adults and one 2 yr old and we had a fantastic time. Plenty of sleeping room, plenty of conversation room, great table to seat all of us for Thanksgiving dinner. The second kitchen made it so easy to prepare dinner and dessert and keep everyone happy and busy. The game room will be an amazing addition when stocked but as a large empty space it was a playground for a 2 year old and many of the adults! The kitchen was fully stocked. The showers were great. Our hosts accommodated all of our special requests and were very responsive. Loved it!

July FAMILY GER TOGETHER
The property was as advertised. Plenty of space, very good sleeping arrangements, great common and dining space and good kitchen accommodations. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves. There could be additional room ac units installed in the bedrooms which didn’t have them as we had some very hot humid weather on some of the days during our stay. The location is fantastic

Perfect location for friends getaway
Location is absolutely perfect. 3-minute walk to town and a nice property setting. The weather was beautiful, so we spent a lot of time catching up on the wrap around porch, but the living space was great when we moved inside for the night. Nice sized kitchen where we made some great meals. The place was very clean and Spencer (the owner) was completely available when we had questions. If you’re getting together with a bigger group, this is a great property to share some time and also be able to stroll down for an ice cream or coffee.

Beautiful and Spacious Home
This was a convenient location for our regatta on the lake. The large great room and many bedrooms aloud us to accommodate 12 adults comfortably. The host was gracious and helpful. We had a great week on Lake Sunapee.

Amazing Family Reunion
The Harbor House is in an ideal location...just steps from beautiful Sunapee Harbor with its shops and restaurants. The home is rustic, and we loved it that way. We enjoyed time with my husband's siblings and their families, as well as our 3 sons, their wives, and our 5 grandchildren. There was so much room to spread out, but also a huge dining table where we came together for meals and to play games in the evenings. We had a few questions/concerns which Spencer, the home owner was quick to answer. Everyone in our family expressed interest in meeting here again in a couple of years. We love Sunapee and this home was perfect for us!

AWESOME rental for large groups!!!
We had a group of 20 people comfortably stay here. The rooms were large and I was talking with the owner and the mattresses are all brand new!!! The house was a 2-minute walk to downtown to where there was a coffee/ smoothie place, an ice cream parlor, a hot dog stand, and much more. The weekend we stayed, there was a great farmers market as well. Lastly, we had a 10-minute walk to Dewey beach. Awesome, clean lake beach with free kayaks and paddleboards to take out on the lake. There was also a snack shack there with ice cream and quick snacks. Back to the property... the backyard was a great size and the driveway comfortably fit 15 cars and could easily fit more! There is a two-car garage as well but we didn't use it. We grilled one night with the large grill the rental had. Large dining room table and living room to gather at night times. Plenty of bathrooms (I think there were 6) and very good WIFI. Overall I would HIGHLY recommend staying here. The house was clean upon arrival, Spenser is a very nice guy who let us know all the good spots in town, plenty of room for large groups, all at a very affordable price.

Location. Location. Location.
The property is what it is. An older place. BUT it is perfect for a family vacation. Plenty of room to be together and by yourself! The dinning room is so big and comfortable to move around. The home is located very very close to the perfect little vacation town. Be aware that is at the top of a steep hill (maybe 150 ft?) and some may not enjoy or be able to walk it. We rented a boat and were able to dock it right there! so fun and convenient. The stores and restaurants are sooo close and all great! Neighbors and neighborhood is wonderful! Spenser was a pleasure to work with. We hope to be back soon!

Family Reunion
A wonderful space for a family reunion. Filled up the spacious house with three generations and had a wonderful time. Easy walking distance to the marina, great restaurant choices and amazing ice cream shops. Best memories will be game time in the large family area and conversations on the front porch. A very unique place to stay in a charming NH lake setting.
