Tranquil lakefront cottage with private beach, boat slip & fishing kayak access

Bayside Sunshine

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Relax on your very own private sandy beach on Leavitt Bay. This bright lakefront cottage has a vast waterfront and two decks giving you a front-row seat to some beautiful sunrises and sunsets across seasons. With space and trees between each of the homes in the neighborhood, you'll feel like the lake is your own. Plus, a unique outdoor area - complete with a propane firepit, picnic table, and an umbrella to help you escape the sun. This cottage is just the place to enjoy a glass of wine and relax with the song of the loons or sightings of the Eagle fishing in the bay. The fall season is tranquil and beautiful on Leavitt Bay, fantastic for fishing, kayaking, and stargazing. The Ossipee area is close to apple orchards, farms, fairs, and tasting rooms. Bring your bikes and hiking shoes and explore nearby country roads and trails. There are many good fishing spots on Ossipee Lake and other nearby ponds. When folks inevitably grow hungry, numerous local favorites are within 15 miles of the cottage!

During the summer, you will enjoy swimming, boating, and fishing on the bay, as well as a slip on an expansive dock where you can secure your boat. Two kayaks are provided. Grill your fresh catch on the private gas grill as the sun goes down, and let the non-fishers of the group prepare sides in the well-equipped kitchen. Wind down after your hearty meal by lounging on the new sleeper sofa and watching your favorite shows on the TV while the partial air-conditioning keeps you cool.

Great little getaway.

Overall, we enjoyed our time. A few things that need to be addressed, like the distance between the parking and house. You'll need a wagon, something on wheels, especially if you are older. Checking in process is a bit confusing, we had to call the 800 #. However, it's a beautiful spot, very quiet and peaceful. We would definitely recommend.

Relaxing vacation right on the lake

Beautiful time. Perfect for a small family. Very clean and had lots of pits annd pans for cooking. (And grill) Enjoyed kayaking, fishing, floating in the clean clear water. The water entrance has some rocks so water shoes for people who may be sensitive , but we didn’t mind ! We loved everything about this place and want to book again !!

Seren lake house

Second time staying here at Bayside Sunshine. We had no neighbors for our whole stay, so it was very peaceful and relaxing. Pros: liked all the improvements made since last time (new carpet, 2 new chairs for seating in living room area, ACs in both bedrooms, etc.) The area and the views are spectacular. All the wildlife, the sunrises, the sunsets, the quiet - it was great. Cons: didn't seem quite as clean as last time. Ants (in the kitchen area specifically) were relentless. Appears that most of the corners of this place were skipped when cleaning too --> not the biggest deal, but it was noticeable. Also, I really missed the hammock that was outside on the sand last time I was here. Would love to come back and see another one sometime!

Would highly recommend!

Loved our week long stay. Would recommend to anyone. Here are the cons: There needs to be a new screen door placed as it did not close all the way and ants can easily get in. Someone dropped off ant traps while we were there so this is a known issue. I wish there was instructions on how to use the TV as we had a rainy day and would have liked to have used it but never got it to work. The listing stated coffee and towels were provided. No coffee and no beach towels though there were plenty of bath towels. Where you have to park is a stones throw away. Only a con as when we arrived it was raining and had a lot of things to carry in. Beach was great, perfect for swimming. Kayaks were wonderful. Place was very clean. No other cons, plan on staying there again!!

Excellent Spot and Utility Mostly

Other than the TV going dark on day 2 (and not coming back), and internet being temperamental, the location is spectacular and unit well organized. If only we had planned for the TV/Internet.

Beautiful Setting

The setting was gorgeous .Cottage was spotless. Enjoyed sitting on the deck overlooking the water. The water was very clean and we saw loons and an eagle. Excellent restaurants were very close and everyone we interacted with was very friendly. Overall a lovely fall getaway.

What a great getaway

I haven't taken a vacation for myself in such a long time, and Bayside Sunshine was just the ticket. I loved that the property was nestled on the corner of Leavitt Bay, and we did not have any neighbors the entire weekend! I basically lived in the hammock. And the views...I mean, it was all so breathtaking. Really - I could go on and on about the views, but I digress. There were just a couple things I wanted to mention about the property. I was a little nervous about cleanliness because I feel like lake houses have a reputation for being a bit dirty and unkept, but this place was pretty well-maintained. We did find a couple dead bugs in the kitchen and on one of the beds, but that's it. The bugs on the outside, however, were relentless at times! FYI for those wanting to go around this time of year...bring your repellent! Most days the lake was not too bad with boats and jet skis, but the weekends can be a bit noisier. Just an FYI. I was pleasantly surprised about all the things that came with the place, especially the kitchen - fully equipped! I wish there had been like 1 or 2 more rolls of toilet paper for the bathroom and maybe 1 or 2 more trash bags, but no big deal to get some more. We had a bit of trouble with the wifi and the TV in the beginning, but when all else fails, turn the devices off and on again! I had also read the past reviews about the beds being super uncomfortable, but these beds were great! Not one complaint about them. Slept very well and was able to keep cool as well. Communication-wise, if you need to get in touch with the company while you are there, calling or texting the number they provide worked well for me. Beforehand, however, I could not get much communication, but it all turned out ok. If I could pick one thing to pass onto the management company, however, it would be the front slider screen door. That thing was terrible. It kept coming off of its tracks no matter what we did and was difficult to manage every day. All in all, this was a great stay and I've gone into full post-vacation depression. Thank you so much - I will absolutely be back in the future when I need another escape!

Private getaway

If you are looking for peace and tranquility this is the place for you. It’s located right on the lake and the private beach was amazing, the water was clear and amazing swimming. The cottage was a little small but enough for my spouse and I, any more people and it would have been a little crowded. The communication with management was a little rough, we were not really sure where to park our vehicle or dispose of our trash, our tv was not working on day one and after attempting daily communication with management it was finally fixed after 3 days. I would definitely rent this cottage again for the privacy, swimming and the amazing lake views, that’s exactly what we needed.
