lovely family reunion

Spencer, the owner, was one of the high points of this rental! He was very responsive and thoughtful (he called me from Target before we arrived and wanted advice on toddler booster seats, for example). The house had a major plumbing problem in the beginning of the week and Spencer had a plumber on site within hours. When that plumber was unable to do the repair, he arranged for another plumbing company to come the next morning- they were also unable to do the huge repair at that time. He then refunded us some money for the inconvenience of being without 2 bathrooms for the remainder of the week.Other high points included the location- our family loved the short walk to the harbor for ice cream each night and poking into the shops and restaurants. We also enjoyed the concert on the town green.I wish I could rate the home higher but cannot:The listing said the home had a/c but only 1 of 4 bedrooms on the 3rd floor had a window a/c. The listing didn't mention that 2 bedrooms were separated by a curtain.Several of the fans provided were covered in dust. One ceiling light had dead flies in it. The front steps were a tripping hazard due to overgrown vegetation. The oven smoked from burnt on food. There were holes in the wall. When I looked under the couch cushions to find a missing puzzle piece, I saw old trash left behind by other people.

Harbor House was a wonderful place to host a 20-person bachelor/bachelorette weekend. There was plenty of space between the large living spaces, bedrooms, and small sitting spaces between. Having two fridges was so helpful! The kitchen was large and well equipped. We grilled on the porch, walked in and out of town, and made incredible memories in the house. Spencer was very communicative and even called me a few days ahead of time to tell me about the house and what to expect. Thanks for sharing your place with us!

Family Holiday Ski Trip

Our family of 12 enjoyed a fantastic ski vacation at Harbour House. The property was comfortable, beautifully appointed, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The dining room table was perfect for sharing meals and playing games together, while the ample space allowed everyone to spread out when needed. The hosts were friendly, attentive, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. We highly recommend Harbour House for a memorable family getaway

Great for Large Groups!!

We had a fantastic stay at this property for my husband's 40th birthday! We had a total of 18 people for 2 nights. The check-in process was seamless, and Spencer was a great host with excellent communication throughout our stay. The location was absolutely perfect—right by a beautiful, clean lake, and just a short walk to downtown, which was so quaint and charming. The home itself was spacious and easily accommodated our group, providing plenty of room for everyone to relax. My favorite part was the large dining room table which served us well for eating and playing card games into the night! One of the bedrooms is separated by a curtain from another bedroom, which worked for us as my family stayed in those two connecting rooms. Just an FYI for anyone counting on all the rooms being private. The kitchen was well-stocked with plenty of pans and accessories, making it easy for us to prepare meals together. The beds were incredibly comfortable—honestly, some of the best we've experienced at a VRBO! The only issue we encountered was a loose railing, which unfortunately caused my sister to fall down the stairs. Spencer was immediately concerned about her well-being, rather than the damage it caused to the stairwell. Upon investigation, we discovered the railing wasn’t anchored properly into the wall. Thankfully, no serious injuries occurred. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this property for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway!

Great spot for a family reunion!

We rented out the whole house and filled it for our family reunion this August. Spencer was an awesome host before and during our stay. He spoke with me and graciously made some accommodations for our group well in advance, and he was super responsive while we were onsite (provided extra linens, helped us troubleshot a clogged drain). The listing accurately reflects the house -- it's an old house and it's not luxury, but we knew that going in. The location is fabulous for an easy walk down to the harbor and an easy drive to the mountain. The neighbors were kind, too -- we shared some of our remaining groceries with them at check out!

Splendid spot for a family reunion!

Harbor House, an older but charming property, was the perfect setting for our family reunion - such a unique experience for the family to stay together in a former bed and breakfast! Being so close to so many different activities and within walking distance to the lake was a bonus. And at the end of long days of exploring Lake Sunapee and the surrounding area, we had plenty of gathering space inside the house and outside on the wonderful wrap around porch to just hang out and chill - perfect for a family reunion!

Awesome house in a great location!

We had a great time! The house is exactly as described, fully stocked with everything you need, enough space for 15+ people, and in a great location! You can walking to a local restaurant and bar with live music and happy hour - or take a 5 minute drive to the MTN. The house has a separate apartment with full kitchen and two bedrooms which was so awesome when traveling with babies. The house was INCREDIBLY baby/kid friendly. Spencer was a great host and very responsive/helpful. Would totally reccomend for a big group! We will be back!

A memorable Thanksgiving!

Melissa and Spencer were super hosts. The Harbor House lived up to it's description- we were 15 adults and one 2 yr old and we had a fantastic time. Plenty of sleeping room, plenty of conversation room, great table to seat all of us for Thanksgiving dinner. The second kitchen made it so easy to prepare dinner and dessert and keep everyone happy and busy. The game room will be an amazing addition when stocked but as a large empty space it was a playground for a 2 year old and many of the adults! The kitchen was fully stocked. The showers were great. Our hosts accommodated all of our special requests and were very responsive. Loved it!

Location is absolutely perfect. 3-minute walk to town and a nice property setting. The weather was beautiful, so we spent a lot of time catching up on the wrap around porch, but the living space was great when we moved inside for the night. Nice sized kitchen where we made some great meals. The place was very clean and Spencer (the owner) was completely available when we had questions. If you’re getting together with a bigger group, this is a great property to share some time and also be able to stroll down for an ice cream or coffee.

Amazing Family Reunion

The Harbor House is in an ideal location...just steps from beautiful Sunapee Harbor with its shops and restaurants. The home is rustic, and we loved it that way. We enjoyed time with my husband's siblings and their families, as well as our 3 sons, their wives, and our 5 grandchildren. There was so much room to spread out, but also a huge dining table where we came together for meals and to play games in the evenings. We had a few questions/concerns which Spencer, the home owner was quick to answer. Everyone in our family expressed interest in meeting here again in a couple of years. We love Sunapee and this home was perfect for us!

The property is what it is. An older place. BUT it is perfect for a family vacation. Plenty of room to be together and by yourself! The dinning room is so big and comfortable to move around. The home is located very very close to the perfect little vacation town. Be aware that is at the top of a steep hill (maybe 150 ft?) and some may not enjoy or be able to walk it. We rented a boat and were able to dock it right there! so fun and convenient. The stores and restaurants are sooo close and all great! Neighbors and neighborhood is wonderful! Spenser was a pleasure to work with. We hope to be back soon!

AWESOME rental for large groups!!!

We had a group of 20 people comfortably stay here. The rooms were large and I was talking with the owner and the mattresses are all brand new!!! The house was a 2-minute walk to downtown to where there was a coffee/ smoothie place, an ice cream parlor, a hot dog stand, and much more. The weekend we stayed, there was a great farmers market as well. Lastly, we had a 10-minute walk to Dewey beach. Awesome, clean lake beach with free kayaks and paddleboards to take out on the lake. There was also a snack shack there with ice cream and quick snacks. Back to the property... the backyard was a great size and the driveway comfortably fit 15 cars and could easily fit more! There is a two-car garage as well but we didn't use it. We grilled one night with the large grill the rental had. Large dining room table and living room to gather at night times. Plenty of bathrooms (I think there were 6) and very good WIFI. Overall I would HIGHLY recommend staying here. The house was clean upon arrival, Spenser is a very nice guy who let us know all the good spots in town, plenty of room for large groups, all at a very affordable price.
