LAK22Wf - Lake Winnipesaukee waterfront, Meredith

A Happy Renter!
The day after we arrived our granddaughters said "Can we come back next year Grandma? And they left on Saturday saying the same thing. So did all our children, so the cottage was a big success! And it didn't hurt to have 7 sunny days. Everything was clean, we ended up using our own sheets (borrowed, not fond of Polyester linens. )Also, for a week at the lake where we felt we should limit our use of the washing machine, one set of towels per person is tricky. We got along Without placemats...tables could take the wear and tear. Ski areas where we have rented houses etc. before, usually provide a list of kitchen utensils and pots and pans that we can 's very useful...such as a grater, spaghetti pot. And more "tea towels" for drying pots and pans etc. by hand would be good. We thought the furnishings were just about perfect...everything we needed, comfortable but not lots of doodads. Pleasant and appropriate prints. We did bring extra "duvets" and needed them. And speaking of returning, we cannot come the same week. One granddaughter will be starting college, probably that week. So we would like to come, The previous week, i.e. Second week in August. Also, above all, the Rental company ladies were very helpful and responded very Quickly! Thank you.

MOST BEAUTIFUL LOCATION ON THE LAKE
This house is magnificent! We had 10 adults and there was plenty of room! The screened in porch is perfect and makes the "common area' huge! The boat house was full of kayaks, tubes, games, life jackets...all in fantastic condition. The kitchen is incredible and with 3 cooks in the family, there was not one complaint about the kitchen not being fully stocked. The cabinets contained every cooking item we needed! There is a walk in pantry with lots of shelves and cabinet space so the kitchen was not cluttered with our food and items we brought from home...everything fit nicely in the pantry. I was a little nervous about only 1 inside shower, but no one minded having to use the outside shower and most of them preferred it by the end of the week. We had 2 friends staying on the lake the same week we were there and after giving them the tour of our house, they decided they were going to rent this same house in the summer of 2018. Both of these friends have rented multiple homes on Lake Winni over the years and found ours to be the most accommodating and comfortable. We loved being able to launch the boat a block away and pull it into the boat house at night. The weather was beautiful the week we were there so having the fans they provided and windows open at night made for comfortable sleeping. Bayside Rentals was extremely easy to work with. We had a leaky toilet and question about trash and they handled every question and concern we had with speed and professionalism. We are already trying to plan our vacation for this house again next year

An Honest Review
The cottage is beautiful and the location perfect. We loved the water toys available! It did cost a lot and for the six of us, a little too big, but I chose it for the appeal of the picture and location. However for the price, it was not clean. We loved the home, dock, boats, ambiance, fire pit, PORCH, furniture (except slip-covers), the recent apparent improvements in side and out.

GREAT Location!!!
Our overall vaca was just so great... we loved the location but have to admit the bathroom situation would have been a bit tough if we actually had a full house for the week and also if the weather wasn't as nice ( because of the outside shower) and next time we will prob prefer a dog friendly environment. Plenty of sleeping space. The screened in porch was absolutely perfect rustic and comfortable. I loved the kitchen area too...the house was comfortable , even though there's no AC and it was a very hot week, we managed ok with fans. The house itself is very shaded which helped a lot and if you like sun the dock was just perfect!! We fit our 24 ft boat tied up and our 2 jet skis in the boat house. Though I brought my 2 kayaks and 3 person tube for towing, they provided plenty of kayaks and canoe, and they also had a single person tube there!! The water quality of the lake is SUPERB!! we will be back year after year with more family & friends!!
