Pleasant place to stay in.

Overall, the house is very nice and provides for all the basic needs. Some things have been overlooked, such as providing an adequate number of hangers in the closets and a drying rack for hand-washed dishes in the kitchen. Also, there wasn't a single sharp knife in the kitchen, In general, the kitchen was not adequately equipped.

Parents getaway

Property was extremely clean and very well represented in the listing, honestly even more room than I was expecting! So quiet and perfectly located just far enough from the city center. We do this little getaway every year for Laconia and it was a perfect distance from Weir’s Beach for a nice little ride in and out.
