Peaceful Lakefront Retreat with Views

Enjoy a relaxing getaway in a cozy cottage nestled into the towering white pine trees at Balch Pond. Sip your morning coffee in the screened in front porch overlooking the lake as the sun dances off the water. Settle in as the loons swim by beckoning you to join them in a refreshing swim in the pristine lake. Enjoy your time fishing, walking in the woods, picking blueberries, swimming or kayaking then lay back in the hammock with a good book as you listen to the gentle waves lapping up against the shore. Senior and kid friendly, the lot is level with two docks and the lake is a mere 15 yards across a sandy, private front yard. The wooden dock has a ramp and steps into the water. Only an hour drive to the ocean or enjoy a scenic drive to the White Mountains. The private, semi secluded cottage sleeps 6 with 2 bedrooms each with a double bed, living room with fireplace and pull out couch, kitchen, dining room, updated bathroom, screened in porch with sitting area and picnic table. Also included: Onsite parking, fully stocked kitchen necessities (guests provide their own meals), coffee pot, sheets, towels, fireplace and wood, free Wi-Fi, tv, dvd player, washer, rowboat, blow up kayak.

This wonderful cottage does not have central heating nor insulation. The fireplace is great at heating the living room. We provide a space heater and electric blankets for cool nights.

We had a wonderful time at this cabin. We stayed a week and had plans to go to a few places but it was so nice we decided to stay right there. The pedal boat was great and the view & loons.

Pond Oasis - Take a step back

I love staying at the cottage! Kayaking and swimming on the pond are the best. Meals on the porch and relaxing on the dock in the sun are favorites.

Wonderful stay. Just perfect. The property was immaculately clean. The loon calls were delightful. Lots of sunfish for the kids to catch and release right off the dock.

Peaceful Retreat

We had a great stay even though the weather wasnt the best. Just sitting listening to the loons was wonderful. Thank goodness for the electric blankets we needed them. There is one small electric heater & we could have used another. Already booked the last week of September & can hardly wait.

Welcoming

Sarah is a wonderful host. When I arrived I realized i had forgotten a critical piece of gear and needed it to be sent overnight. Sarah sprung into action and saved the day. The cottage itself is rich with history and provides a welcoming rustic charm. It is right on the water with two docks and wonderful views. This is my fourth visit and I hope to have many more.

Last bit of summer

There are many aspects of this spot on the pond that are wonderful - the history of the home, the original interior and the porch... but my favorite is just hanging out on the dock in the warm sun with a book and the view.

Cold for August, but no rain!

We like to stay at waterfront cabins because we fish. The cabin has a wonderful waterfront deck AND a dock! As well as a screened in porch, where we ate every night. We were inside more than usual, but thankfully there is tv, internet and board games available. Overall an enjoyable stay. (although the fishing was lousy - not the owners fault. Thanks, Mother Nature!)

September stay

We loved everything. The old quaintness of a cottage built in 1866 was very charming. The waterfront was awesome. It was a very quiet September week I will remember for a long time. I would return in a heartbeat. My only suggestion would be the consideration of a new mattress as I found mine very hard. Other than that, it was perfect! I will recommend it to my friends and family for their stays!

The true lake experience

We loved every moment of our stay at this historic cottage. The lake was quiet and peaceful. The echoing loon calls were magical. We brought our kayak but also used the boats provided—our kids (as well as the adults) had a fantastic time playing on the water. We loved the front porch overlooking Balch lake, as well as the fire pit. The remnants of hurricane Ida came through one of the nights we were there—but we had a cozy evening by the fireplace and enjoyed the sound of rain on the roof during the night! Thank you for preserving this true lake experience and sharing it with us!!

Review

Great spot and the camp had great dishes! For a sleep 6 there were only 3 bath towels and shower liner should be replaced. Propane tank was somewhat low and told don and Brenda to let property manager know..we may run out but never heard anything. Due to the rain we were ok. Previous tenants garbage was left animals made a mess, understandable
