8/10 Good

"Beautiful house! The kitchen is well equipped. Lots of places to sit and relax. I asked if there were kayaks and the host said no, so we rented them. The day before we arrived, the host said there were kayaks available. It would have been nice to save money on them but that’s okay. Comfy beds! We do plan to come back next year."

Modern Squam Lake Retreat: A 2026 VRBO Vacation Rental of the Year

10/10 Excellent

"We spent two wonderful and blissful August weeks at Sharon and David's lake front property. From the moment you walk in, you realize this is a special place. The architecture, furnishings, layout, and organization show a tremendous amount of thoughtfulness and care. You could tell that this was not just a rental house. It was someone's second home. It made for an incredibly relaxing and beautiful environment. The house is very well equipped with everything we needed including a canoe, kayaks, and paddle boards. We cooked many meals in the kitchen and always found what we needed in the well organized cabinets and drawers. The hot tub was warm and clean, becoming a daily event. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of storage space for our clothes. The wifi has excellent bandwidth. The location is ideal. It is on a quiet road at one of the quieter spots and already quiet lake. We rarely heard any noise or even voices from the neighbors. Being at the south end of the lake it is a very convenient 10 minutes from both Merideth and Center Harbor where you can find everything you need including several grocery stores, many good restaurants, and our favorite, the Moulton Farms market. Communication with the hosts (Sharon) was seamless and pleasant. We couldn't have asked for a better stay."

7BR/5Bath Waterfront Squam Home, Dock, Pickleball+Tennis, Kayaks+Paddleboards

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property on the very special Squam Lake. The house has so much room for a large group, we were able to spread out along the waterfront dock area, front deck, and screen porch. Lots of activities to do on the water, plus the tennis court was a really nice bonus. When it rained, plenty of room in the house for indoor activities. Private location, comfortable beds, spectacular sunset views. House had all the equipment and linens that we needed."

Quiet Waterfront Cottage on Squam

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for enjoying the lake with all the provided water craft. Check out the science center which is designed for kids of all ages. Local market is the place to go for fresh morning pastries. Plenty of local hiking. Overall the place was clean, but it is a lake cabin. Cabinets were well stocked with dishes and spices. The washer and drier were a real plus. On the chiller days the kids loved getting out of the water to warm by the fire in the fire pit. Thanks for a great family vacation"
