About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Stunning 5 BR Lakefront Family Home with Private Gym & Boat House

Bring everyone together at the lake. Celebrate Thanksgiving, the Holidays, MLK, the Presidents or winter school breaks.

Enjoy Lake Winnipesaukee in every season from this distinctive five-bedroom, five-bath waterfront home in a private Alton community. Set on four acres, the house offers sweeping lake, mountain and sunset views extending as far as 24 miles—a memorable setting for family vacations, holiday stays and quieter weekends together.

A home with character and room to gather

Built with Douglas fir from California’s Sierra Nevada mountains, this classic timber-frame home combines artisan craftsmanship with thoughtfully selected antique doors, wood floors and custom furniture. Five individually designed bedrooms include a spacious bunk room with sleeping arrangements for up to eight, within the home’s maximum overnight occupancy of 12.

The well-equipped kitchen is designed for people who love to cook, with space to prepare family dinners, Thanksgiving meals and holiday favorites. Indoor dining seating accommodates up to 15, giving everyone a place around the table.

Your own waterfront setting

Spend summer days swimming, boating or relaxing beside the lake. The property includes a private sandy beach, a private stream-fed sand-bottom swimming cove approximately 100' long and 40' wide, with water depth four-six feet depending on lake levels.

A timber-frame boathouse features twin 28' slips, complemented by a 63' dock. Expansive lawns, shade trees, a hammock and plentiful outdoor seating offer places to play, read or simply enjoy the view.

Gather for a barbecue, settle into the attached hexagonal gazebo or share lunch at the umbrella-covered nine-foot picnic table for ten. In the evening, dine out on the waterfront point beneath the stars, then enjoy the outdoor fireplace for marshmallows and storytelling and go to bed listening to the loons and waves.

Fall views and winter getaways

Fall brings colorful scenery, boating, swimming, hiking, scenic drives and a quieter pace around the lake. Return from hiking up Mount Major or around Knight's Pond to cook together and enjoy an unhurried evening at the house.

In winter, make the home your base for skiing and other Lakes Region activities. Snowmobiling, sledding and ice fishing for Lake Trout are possibilities when conditions permit. Whether everyone heads outdoors or some prefer a relaxed day inside, there is room to enjoy the getaway together.

Plenty to enjoy indoors.

Challenge one another to ping pong, pool or air hockey. Relax in the theater, catch a movie or sporting event. Two smart TVs. The private exercise area includes a Peloton Bike, Life Fitness treadmill, StairMaster, free weights, rack and a bench. Nearby outings offer walking, hiking, shopping and dining throughout the year.

Please note:

- Maximum overnight occupancy is 12 guests. Dining and outdoor seating capacity do not increase that limit.
- From June 15 through August, a seven-night minimum stay applies, otherwise 3 nights are the minimum.
- This property is in a quiet residential property on a point out into the 'Broads' of Lake Winnipesaukee. Spectacular views of lake, mountain ranges, evening skies, wildlife and weather.
- No bachelor or bachelorette parties, school reunion parties, weddings, receptions or other loud events. Ideally, this property is designed for a family retreat.
- One electrical outlet is available for vehicle charging. Guests should confirm compatibility and bring appropriate charging equipment.
- Waterfront access and outdoor activities depend on weather, season and lake conditions.
- Always attend and be in front of any open fire in the fire pit adjacent to boat house. ABSOLUTELY NO BIG BONFIRES. Burn only Host supplied firewood from adjacent wood bin. Extinguish fire before leaving by filing adjacent water bucket next to pit by drawing from the lake. Make sure all combustible material is removed from fire pit before starting an open fire in the pit.

This was our third summer here at this beautiful home. Very nice home with all the amenities you will need. Nice game room and gym in the basement. Has the most beautiful sunsets looking across the Lake. The property manager Jennifer always pleasant and helpful and checked on us during the week for any problems. Checkin was easy and efficient with Jennifer. Owner Eric also always available if problem arises and was most helpful during this stay. A nice home in a nice location, 10 minutes from Wolfeboro or Alton, and a good team of people to work with during your stay.

Family week at Lake Winni

We had a very relaxing stay. Kids loved the water front with paddle boarding and swimming but especially the fishing. They caught several large mouth bass which was excising for them. Boat house was great for getting on and off the water with our rental boat. Melvin Marina was great. We are looking forward to next year!

Great Family Vacation!

We spent a week at this beautiful property and had a wonderful time. The host was easy to communicate with and responsive when needed. The house was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, perfect for our group of 10 adults and 6 children. We really enjoyed swimming, fishing, boating, and making use of the boathouse with a rental pontoon.Each day we shared big home-cooked meals and spent quality time together as a family, enjoying the various sitting areas, game room, and fire pit. We’ve rented several large homes throughout the Lake Winnipesaukee region, and this was truly one of my favorite family vacations yet.
