About this property

Charming 3 bedroom Cottage, waterfront with boat slip

The Cottage at Spring Harbor, is a beautifully designed, new home on Lake Winnipesaukee. This is one of two homes located on this beautiful property that sits on a channel that leads to Smith Cove on Lake Winnipesaukee. Enjoy this peaceful setting with the views of the water and just 5 miles from Gunstock Ski Area. The Cottage is much more than a cottage, with modern amenities, a gas fire pit, grill, and space to enjoy the outdoors. This home features three (3) bedrooms, one (1) full bath, (1) 3/4 bath, and will sleep up to 8 guests! There is an open concept kitchen with stainless appliances, beautiful countertops and kitchen island/dining table, and living area with ample windows letting in the beauty of the natural lighting. The main floor also includes a bedroom with a queen size bed and a 3/4 bathroom. Venture downstairs to find two additional bedrooms. The primary bedroom offers a king bed, sitting area, and a walkout deck and the other bedroom hosts a queen bed and twin bunkbeds. There is also a full bathroom on the lower level. Wake up and begin your day with a delicious cup of coffee sitting on one the decks looking down to the water’s edge.

The property is well equipped with 4 bicycles and 4 kayaks shared between both homes. There is a shared dock at the water's edge with a designated boat slip that fits up to a 25 foot boat. Just a 2 minute drive down the road is Glendale Town Docks with two boat launch ramps, we provide a boat launching pass upon request, where you can easily get your boat in the lake.

Pet Policy: We love animals, but we can only accommodate 1 small dog per reservation. We request that you notify us of the breed and weight of the dog prior to your stay and a pet fee will be applied. We DO NOT allow cats or any other animals.

Modern Lake Front Property with all Amenities & Dog Friendly

Our little family of 4 (Mom, Dad, 14 yo girl, 11 year old boy) wanted a chill relaxing place to have a workcation the week between when school ended and summer camps began. The owners are local and fantastic to deal with. The house came with everything we needed, including shampoo/conditioner, grill supplies, 4 bikes, 4 kayaks, a dock! Beth and Cody made sure we had everything we needed and checked in on us. Beth even gave us a tour of the lake on her boat! The kids were able to use the bikes to ride down to the beach and spend the day there. It was easy to launch the kayaks from the shed by the waterfront. When we say waterfront, we mean the backyard! There were also 2 firepits we could use, but we didn’t have time! The dog also had a wonderful time. They even left special treats for her and had a pooper scooper by the shed. We are totally coming back next year. Thanks again for sharing your love of the lake with us!
