Simply the best!
Family emergencies made our time a challenge before we even arrived, but Lyda was the best host we could have ever hoped for! She was responsive and worked with us every step of the way - thank you, Lyda! We felt right at home immediately in the spacious, comfortable house that had everything we needed. We saw deer in the orchard every day and had coffee every morning on the back deck overlooking the lake. Being able to moor our boat there and use the dock was the icing on the cake! We hated to leave and can’t wait to return!

Newfound Lake Vacation
We have spent several summer vacations here on Newfound Lake but none as comfortable as staying at Lyda’s place! It is cozy and well stocked with everything you could possibly need! Very clean and well appointed with comfortable beds. With temperatures in the 90’s the air conditioning was a huge bonus! The convenience of the golf cart and amenities for use at Whittimore Point beach were great! We definitely want to return and stay here again! Thank you Lyda!

July Review
Our overall trip was amazing. The house had more items than listed so of course I brought too much. The owner was very responsive from the point I made the reservation. I had a daughter in law who was 8 months pregnant during our stay so I had lots of questions. Couple of things - there is a gas grill, a regular coffee maker and a K-Cup, paper towels and toilet paper are supplied. The kitchen was also stocked with garbage bags, foil and everything you would need need. There is a 2nd full size fridge in the basement which would be handy for 2 families staying together. There were a couple of country stores and a Hanafords about 10 minutes away. Couple of things that could have gone easier. It was difficult to find the house as it isn't on the main road as listed. So the actual address may be the main road but that isn't where the house is located, you had to take a left onto a side road - this was frustrating. The property had access to a beach and boat moorings which was great. Some of the condo owners were a bit rude to our adult children which wasn't necessary. Yes, were "renters' but we are and were always respectful. Overall I would definitely recommend and we actually were looking to rent for some time this winter for skiing.

Great vacation home on Whittemore Shores
Lyda’s home was a great vacation location for our family! The open kitchen/dining/living area suited our family’s needs, and the downstairs was very spacious including a new large full bath. Scenic views of the apple orchard in the front as well as lake and Mountain view in the back. Whittemore point is a very convenient location with great restaurants and grocery close by. We plan to return next year!
