My family and I stayed at this property on Squam and it was everything we had hoped for - spacious, quiet, comfortable - and oh that big porch overlooking the lake, what more could you ask for? We'll be back!

Reviewer Comments:
This roomy, rustic cottage with 3 bathrooms is on a very quiet secluded cove on Squam Lake, that makes you feel like you are all alone. Great kayaking and a great place to watch the loons raise their chicks. It’s close to Center Harbor and Sandwich and easy to get around.
