Outdoor family fun on beautiful Messer Pond - 11 miles from Mt Sunapee!

You can feel the stress leave your body when you arrive at this quintessential New Hampshire paradise. Evergreen forest surrounds you as you enjoy nearly 4-acres of wooded property and over 100 feet of waterfront on beautiful Messer Pond, while only being minutes from the convenience and ambience of New London or Sunapee.

This four-season home is the perfect location for a family get-away. Only 11 miles from Mt Sunapee, you can ski all day and then enjoy the wonderful dining of New London or Sunapee through the evening during the winter. Summer brings new opportunities to swim, kayak and fish on serene Messer Pond.

Warm and welcoming for family gatherings and entertaining, the living room, dining room and kitchen flow together with a vaulted ceiling and lovely views of the property and pond. There is a large deck and beautiful gazebo off the main living space, complete with great outdoor furniture and a gas barbeque for grilling. The kitchen boasts new appliances and all the comforts of home with a kitchen dining area and breakfast bar. The house is outfitted with smart TV's and/or cable throughout. If you must do some work, although we don't recommend it, there is excellent Wi-Fi throughout the house!

There are 3 bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the first floor. The master bedroom is private with a comfy king size bed and large master bath with a soaking tub. The second floor is private and can be closed off with a door. The newly built out second floor has a generously sized 4th bedroom with a king-sized bed, a media room, and a full bathroom.

A bonus loft off the main living area enables you to sleep an extra teenager or two, or you can use the area for arts and crafts for the young kids. We also provide a queen air mattress in case you need to sleep more!

There is a full 2-car garage to park cars in during the cold, snowy nights. We also have plenty of outdoor toys, including kayaks, a canoe, stand-up paddleboards, and tubes for sledding in the winter.

lots of space; enjoyed spending quality time with my grandchildren; I especially liked the use of the garage. As far as suggestions go, kitchen was very well equipped but could use a few more spoons and a ladle. I would certainly consider renting it again Thanks Paul S.

Great House and Friendly Responsive Host
We've stayed here a couple of times. The house has a great layout for the family, is not far from the Mt. Sunapee and the grocery store. Most importantly, the host is responsive and accommodating. We've stayed here two years in a row and are considering making it an annual tradition.

Absolutely Perfect Stay For Our Family
My family stayed in this New London home for a few days over the summer, and we truly could not have asked for a better experience. Not only was the home incredibly clean and spacious, but it had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay. This house is in a wonderful, private location with a dock and water view a few steps away in the backyard. We also enjoyed coffee and breakfast in the gazebo, as our 1 year old ran around. There were beach chairs, life jackets, and everything you could need to enjoy the warm weather. Additionally, the upstairs apartment area and movie room made the perfect spot to relax and put our little one to bed quietly, while we enjoyed some down time. I can’t say enough about how perfect our visit was, and we truly hope to be able to come back again. I can absolutely see some hiking, exploring New London, and visits to Colby-Sawyer in our future.

Multigenerational getaway
This home was close to perfect for our trip family of nine, ages 7 to 77. There were enough beds, 3 full bathrooms, and the dining table was large enough to fit us comfortably. It was located in a quiet, private area yet only minutes to the grocery store, restaurants, and nearby attractions. Everyone especially enjoyed the kayaks, canoe, paddle board and even a paddle boat. The property, its amenities and location did not disappoint. We would consider booking again.

A newer well appointed home. Spacious with many nice features. A great winter ski house for a group. Nice in summer too, but Messer Pond access and water frontage is NOT for young kids. Quite swampy and weedy.

Lake house get away
Our family enjoyed staying at this house. The 4 bedrooms plus loft and three full baths fit the 6 of us perfectly. The host left a welcome book with activity ideas we enjoyed including a dinner restaurant, a nearby beach, and the local playhouse. The dock has an 11'4" paddleboard, a mini paddleboard, a large kayak, a medium kayak, a ride-atop kayak, and a 2 driver paddleboat, all of which made for good times on the very calm and quiet pond. Note the pond is a short walk down some stairs, across a small street, and down a trail, and only a sliver is visible from the house through summer foliage. Host was accommodating of our dog and the area is dog friendly. As with anywhere near a pond in summer, bring bug spray! We would stay here again.

Perfect!
This house perfectly met our needs. There was a play area for the kids, a large dining table for the whole family, a wonderful kitchen, and plenty of comfy room for the adults. It was spotlessly clean and beautiful. The house and furnishings were in great condition, but not too precious/fragile to be used. The access to the pond and the kayaks and paddle board were fantastic. We felt private and secluded, but it is only a few minutes to shops, restaurants/bakeries, and grocery. The beach at Little Sunapee was wonderful for the kids. Nice hikes were nearby. The owner and management company were very responsive. And there were fireflies!
