Wonderful Family Vacation
We all enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Everything was so well maintained and clean. We made a lot of use of the pool and playground. It was amazing to have our own outside area with a bbq, picnic table (with umbrella) and a firepit! Thanks for such a great time.

Quiet Spot
The place was clean and had all the amenities (stove, microwave, toaster, Kerig) to cook and grill. The screened porch was a plus to watch the sun set over the mountains. Got cable and WIFI too. The heated pool was great. It is a small cottage, so make sure you are comfortable being cozy. Nice quiet place to sit on the grass or go down to the beach on the lake and watch the world go by.

Alton Bay New Hampshire vacation
Cottage we stayed in was number five. Had a wonderful experience cottage was neat cleaned and spacious. Plenty of room for four adults. The owners were fantastic very nice and polite. Could not ask for better people. I brought three jet skis, and they fit perfectly at the dock. I have already booked for next year already. We will continue making memories hopefully for years to come.

Great Cabin
I stayed here with my spouse and two kids (6 and 3yo). We all really enjoyed our stay. The cabin is quant but beautiful. The 5th cabin is the closest to the pool and play area (there is a play set with swings and a “treehouse” as well as a smaller structure for little ones. The main bedroom has a full size bed and there are two twins in the other bedroom. The beds were comfy and the cabin functions beautifully. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Quaint cottage
We really loved staying in this adorable cottage. It has nostalgic touches that give it a vintage/camp vibe; however, has modern conveniences such as mini-split AC, updated bathroom, flooring and nice white towels/linens. We enjoyed the outdoor firepit and nice, clean pool. It’s a short walk to downtown Alton Bay. We really enjoyed Dockside and Shibley’s for dinner and Bayside for breakfast. We also took the Sunday brunch cruise right out of Alton Bay on the Mt. Washington which was great. We used the provided dock for our kayak, wish we had a boat as it’s a great amenity for the property. Jill is great at responding and gives her guests space and privacy. Overall great experience.

Bike Week Stay
Overall the place was great and so were the hosts. We stayed in Cabin #5 which sits apart from the rest of them. Only minor things I'd change is switch to a regular coffee maker (non keurig) and put up a shade/curtain for the bathroom window. Those are the only minor issues with this place. It's situated in a great location, far enough out of the reach of major noise/traffic of the strip and it creates a great ride to and from the strip.

A Must Stay!
Tucked away across the road from Alton Bay is a quaint, very charming little cabin. With Eastern White Pine for the inside finish and modern deco touches this little cabin is fabulous! We were 2 people and it was perfect for us. The onsite facilities are great for a small family. Our cabin came with a boat slip so that made it perfect for us to enjoy Lake Winnipesaukee as well as there is.a swimming pool. Everyone we met was extremely friendly and Jill was awesome regarding communicating. If you get the opportunity to stay in Alton Bay, NH, I highly recommend this little cabin.

Amazing property and location
The cabin is very clean and organized. It has pots, pans, dishes, glasses, and silverware. It had a gas grill with utensils to grill. The TV with many channels and AC was a bonus. WIFI worked good. The host contacts you and she is available for any questions or concerns. Her responses are very quick.
The Alton Lake beach is within walking distance. There are restaurants and a store in walking distance.
It was a nice quiet atmosphere with wonderful views of the lake. Definitely a hidden gem and I will definitely be back.
