Wonderful time at the lake!
My family stayed here for a week and had a lovely time. Space is great for families, with a large backyard, grill, hot tub, and convenient location to spend time in Meredith. Hosts were easy to work with and accommodating. One thing to know (mainly if you have young kids) is the basement bedrooms with twin beds feel a bit separated from the upstairs, as they are downstairs and through a utility room. But overall, great place and would recommend.

Cozy spacious retreat
Our family enjoyed our week at this lovely home in December. The fireplace and hot tub provided endless enjoyment, the house was well appointed, and Ashely, the host, was very responsive and offered great suggestions as to where to explore!
