Lake Winnipesaukee & Gunstock · Sleeps 10 · Fire Pit · Hot Tub

A colonial house in Gilford, a short drive from Lake Winnipesaukee and Gunstock. It backs onto conservation land, so it's quiet at night - and yes, there are bugs in summer. It's not fancy, just a comfortable, well-stocked house for a family or a group of friends. Our private hot tub is now installed and available for guests to enjoy.

Downstairs there's a living room with a big 75" TV, a smaller family room that's good for reading or board games, and a kitchen with plenty of counter space that opens into a dining room seating eight. There's a half bath on this floor too. We refreshed the inside and upgraded the furniture for 2026.

Upstairs are the four bedrooms: two with king beds, one with a queen, and one with a twin-over-twin bunk. Two of the rooms have TVs, and every bedroom has its own window AC for summer. The main bedroom has its own bathroom with a clawfoot tub and a separate shower. Extra sleeping areas may be available - please talk to the host.

You'll also have fast Wi-Fi, central heat, a washer and dryer, and a Nespresso machine. There's room in the driveway for cars and for things like a boat trailer or ski gear.

Outside there's the hot tub, a fire pit with Adirondack chairs (ask us before lighting it - the town requires a permit), a deck, an outdoor table that seats six, and a grill (bring your own propane). The house sits on a hill, so the driveway, steps and paths can be steep - please watch your step, especially at night or when it's icy.

There are four security cameras outside the house (driveway, garage, front patio and backyard) plus a doorbell camera at the front door, and they're always on. There are no cameras inside. There are noise monitors inside and outside that only measure volume and don't record conversations, and an occupancy monitor inside the house.

In winter, Gunstock is a few minutes away for skiing. In summer, people come for the lake, hiking in the Belknap Range and the bike trails. Fall is busy with foliage and local farm festivals.

We don't live at the house, but we'll have someone available on Vrbo messages for your whole stay. If something breaks or isn't working, please let us know right away so we can sort it out while you're still here.
