The cabin location was nice, quiet and very enjoyable. The view out the dining area is beautiful. Rooms were spacious. The patio was very comfortable with a beautiful view. Only downfall was the wind.

Peaceful Lakeside Home

This was the latest of several visits we have made to this home. We enjoy how bright and airy it is, and love its proximity to the lake - right outside the door, where you can watch the birds and other critters, and just catch your breath from all the hustle and bustle of regular life. A wonderful place to recharge, especially kayaking on the lake in the early morning when no one else is about.

About the host

Hosted by Louise Mc Junkin

We have had a home in the White Mountains since our children were small. Now we are thrilled to have 3 generations come up and enjoy the winter and summer fun. This was the year Papa taught our 2 oldest grandsons (9 and 5) to ski. What fun they had on their winter ski trips and pizza parties. Next year grand daughters are coming to join the fun. All the grandchildren love the special summer trips, being out on the lake and catching fish. Our little city gandchildren love to learn about nature, hike, fish, look for eagles and exciting nature scavenger hunts.

Why they chose this property

This is a beautiful area. We wanted to be on a lake and yet near a town. This place is perfect! It is not far from Sunrise Ski area and was especially nice when my husband was on the Ski Patrol. He still skis every chance he gets! Many areas to hike We built this home in 1999 and completely gutted and remodeled it a few years ago.

What makes this property unique

Time to kick back, R & R, We can be as busy as we want with activities or can veg out and read sitting by the fire in the winter enjoying the winter wonderland. In the summer we hike, kayak, fish, and spend lots of time on the deck enjoying sunrises and sunsets. In every season, there is always something to view on the lake. There are many kinds of ducks, swans, Canadian geese. We see eagles, heron, many osprey, owls, little foxes, and sometimes those darn beavers who love our trees along the lake. We are close to restaurants, grocery stores, movie theater, We love the special times here with our children, grandchildren and friends year round. In summer there is fun on the lake and in winter, skiing and snow activities. Holidays are always a special delight here.
