A lakeside getaway at its best.

Review Submitted: March 11, 2011 Date of Stay: June 2010
I rented this cottage during Laconia Bike Week 2010 (June 11th - June 19th) for myself and four of my friends. The location was absolutely perfect for our stay. It was only a short, scenic ride to Weirs beach, yet it was far enough away that we could completely remove ourselves from the crowds when we wished. In fact going from the cottage to the Weirs we encountered NO TRAFFIC the entire week. Quite a feat during bike week. We found the cottage to be exactly as described and Mr. and Mrs. Hilson's customer service was second to none. The cottage was clean, well furnished and completely ready for our arrival. Right down to a full gas bottle on the grill, the cottage was in complete move in condition. The surrounding area was not only beautiful but blissfully quiet. The area was completely deserted during the week and there were only a few people in the surrounding cottages on the weekends. Sitting on the porch or the dock enjoying a meal or tasty beverage, we felt as if we had the entire end of the lake to ourselves. Mr. and Mrs. Hilson's communications were also excellent and they were very accommodating for us. There were absolutely no surprises, every last detail was mapped out for us and I was very glad to have trusted my vacation accommodations to them. They even went as far as to arrange parking for our trailer with one of their neighbors. There honestly is not a single bad thing that I can say about my rental experience. My only regret the entire week was packing to leave. I would whole heartedly recommend this property to anyone looking for a New Hampshire lakeside getaway. I fully intend on renting from Mr. and Mrs. Hilson again . . . . . . Just as soon as I can.

Spectacular views

Review Submitted: August 3, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
Very clean and neat cottage. Very cool and breezy. Spectacular views. Great dock for your boat. There are a lot of stairs so if you have trouble with stairs this may be a problem for you.

Beware of the stairs!

Review Submitted: July 22, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
My family rented this cottage in July 2008 and overall we were happy with our selection. Our biggest concern was the circular staircase, it's narrow and metal and not an easy undertaking - especially since the eating area is downstairs and the kitchen is upstairs. We quickly got in the habit of loading a tray with our food and then using the outside stairs to get to the first floor, then we entered through the sliding door off the deck.

Our only other problem had nothing to do with the rental or the owners - the neighbors had a nasty habit of shooting off firecrackers nightly between 10 and midnight. It seemed as though we were just drifting off to sleep when the loud explosions would go off.

The dock/deck were our favorite areas and we were lucky enough to have wonderful summer weather all week. The kitchen has everything you could imagine and the family room is plenty large to spread out and play games.

Keep in mind that it's the renters responsibility to take their garbage to the dump and all items MUST be sorted by plastic/glass/paper, etc. We found out the hard way on our last morning and had to sort through a week's worth of garbage!

All in all, I would rent this unit again - but I would feel better about it minus the firecrackers!
