Not as expected
Although the pictures and descriptions of the place were accurate, to me, they conveyed a much nicer environment. For instance, the picture of the row of cabins with their screened-in porches was cute, but rather than facing the lake, they faced the main N-S road in that part of the state so there was no water view at all. The main bedroom was only separated from the kitchen by a closet bi-fold door with no handles. The “air-conditioned” definition was one ancient and small window unit in the kitchen which provided no cooling unless one was standing directly in front of it. The pictures of the beach and walkway to it appeared much nicer than reality. Finally, although there was access to the water, between the cabin and the tiny, narrow beach were numerous other houses with cars and trucks park all around, detracting from the ambiance of the area. Just my opinion, but I would never give this listing the high ratings it has.

Comfortable house
We had a nice stay at cottage six. Especially the living room and screened in porch were great places to spend time. The three bedrooms were sufficient and the beds comfortable. One bedroom, the one with the queen sized bed, is downstairs. The cottage has very much a cabin fe, with the upstairs rooms having curtains rather than doors. The kitchen is small, and there is no counterspace, which makes it a challenge to prepare meals, but we managed using the table. The cottage needs some extra shelves to store groceries and I believe that the owners are planning to add some.
The water access is a short walk away and you don’t have to cross any roads. The water in this area is shallow for a very long time. This is great for younger kids and the challenge if you want to swim. You cannot store any water vessels at the beach, you’d have to carry them from the cottage each day.
We enjoyed our stay.

This place was perfect.
I was alittle worried about it being too small but it was perfect for us. We loved the screened in porch and living room space. It was close enough g to all ourr hiking spots. Kangamangus, Mt Washington, gorge flume...thank you so much for the stay. Oh the sun sets at the lake were magnificent. I will definitely be back.

Cabin by the lake
Communication with our host was easy through the Vrbo App. Having a dedicated parking lane when we pulled in helped identify where we needed to park. The carriage to bring items to cabin was appreciated. The key in the lock box was easy to access and the space was clean upon arrival. Lake access was great and the neighbors were friendly. Our kids enjoyed the private sleeping quarters in cabin 6 the adults liked the 1st floor master bedroom. Quarters were tight but the proximity to the lake, ice cream shop and horse shoe pit made us feel at home. We enjoyed our get away and will come back again. Thank you making our time at Newfound Lake enjoyable. We look forward to seeing the improvements in the WiFi when we return. Thanks again!

Minimal but sufficient after all
The photos led us to expect more space inside and out, and we were surprised by the small size of the bathroom, bedrooms, and kitchen. This is definitely not a workable place for three couples to stay, especially if five of the six people are over six feet tall! That said, the cottage grew on me after a day or two, and even the traffic noise became less annoying. The screened-in porch is very nice, with a nice lawn and grassy bank below the road making up for the disappointment of not looking at the lake or mountains. It's actually impressive how many different houses and cottages are fitted into the little area of lakeshore, and once you've walked to the beach area and focus on the lake the view, cool clear water, and bit of sand are quite satisfactory. The interior walls are white and there's not a lot of visual clutter. Two suggested improvements are: screens on more of the windows (at least one per bedroom!) and a less sensitive smoke alarm.

AVERAGE STAY
WE WERE FIRST OF SEASON , BUT A FEW BUG RESIDENTS WERE THERE TO SUPRISE US. THE BEACH ACCESS O.K.,B BUT VERY ROCKY TO GET TO SANDY BEACH. MY DAUGHTER AND MY 11 YR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER RENTED 2 KAYAKS FOR 2 DAYS. AND AFTER THE FIRST NIGHT SOMEONE LEFT NOTE NOT TO LEAVE THEM AT BCH. AREA. SO THEY HAD TO DRAG THEM BACK AND FORTH THE NEXT DAY. AND BEACH WASNT THAT CLOSE TO CAMP. I LOVE THIS AREA BUT WILL PROBABLY RENT SOMEWHERE ELSE NEXT TIME.
