NEW Beautiful Lakefront Home! 500ft of Waterfront!
Welcome to The Lakeside Retreat on Belleau Lake!
Escape to your own lakeside paradise in beautiful East Wakefield, New Hampshire! Nestled between Belleau Lake and Woodman Lake, our spacious, four-season vacation home sits on 1.1 acres with over 500 feet of waterfront, panoramic lake views, a large sandy beach, and endless opportunities for family fun. Whether you're planning a summer lake vacation, a colorful fall getaway, or a cozy winter retreat, The Lakeside Retreat is the perfect place to relax, reconnect, and create lasting memories with family, friends, and your four-legged companions.
The Space
Our welcoming lake house features comfortable accommodations, beautiful water views, a spacious kitchen, and plenty of indoor entertainment.
Main Floor: Two comfortable bedrooms, each with a queen-size bed and beautiful lake views. Full bathroom and a Pack 'n Play for little ones. Spacious, fully equipped kitchen for preparing family meals and a cozy, open living area with a gas stove, comfortable seating, and beautiful views of the lake.
Second-Floor Loft: Two double beds, one twin bed, and a convenient half bathroom. A comfortable sleeping area perfect for kids, teens, or additional family members.
Game Room: Head downstairs for hours of entertainment! Our clean, unfinished basement has been transformed into a spacious recreational area featuring a full-size pool table, ping pong, foosball, oversized games, comfortable couch, coffee table, and 55-inch Smart TV. Rainy days are just as much fun at The Lakeside Retreat!
Your Waterfront Paradise
What makes our property truly special is its incredible setting between two beautiful New Hampshire lakes!
Belleau Lake — Sandy Beach & Swimming: Enjoy over 200 feet of Belleau Lake waterfront with a large sandy beach, swimming area, dock, comfortable lounge chairs, and a lakeside fire pit. Spend your days soaking up the sunshine, paddling across the lake, fishing, or simply relaxing with a good book while taking in the gorgeous views.
You ’ll have access to our privately owned beach, located directly in front of the property. While a handful of neighbors also hold deeded access, this stretch of shoreline is not open to the public — meaning you’ll enjoy a peaceful, uncrowded spot to relax by the water.
Woodman Lake — Nature & Tranquility: On the opposite side of the property, enjoy over 300 feet of waterfront along peaceful Woodman Lake. It's a wonderful setting for kayaking, fishing, birdwatching, and enjoying the natural beauty of New Hampshire.
Water Activities & Outdoor Fun: Guests can enjoy 3 adult kayaks, 1 children's kayak, a stand-up paddleboard, canoe, life jackets, paddles, sandy beach with lounge chairs, dock, lakeside fire pit, basketball hoop, tetherball, and outdoor games. Additional beach equipment and games are stored in the small shed beside the house. Belleau Lake is known for bass fishing, and fishing licenses and supplies are available at nearby Country Goods.
Four Seasons of Adventure
Summer: Swim, kayak, paddleboard, fish, enjoy beach days, and gather around the fire pit under the stars.
Fall: Experience spectacular New Hampshire foliage, peaceful lake mornings, nearby hiking trails, and cozy evenings by the gas stove.
Winter: Enjoy skiing, snowmobiling, ice fishing, snowshoeing, and winter adventures. Snowmobile Corridor 19 runs right past the property, offering convenient access to the regional trail network when conditions permit.
Spring: Welcome the warmer weather with hiking, fishing, kayaking, wildlife watching, and quiet lakeside relaxation.
Province Lake Golf Course is only about five minutes away, and the White Mountains, Wolfeboro, and North Conway offer wonderful day-trip opportunities.
Family-Friendly & Dog-Friendly
We love welcoming families and their furry companions! Amenities include a Pack 'n Play, dog bowls, leash, waste bags, dog bed and blanket, plenty of indoor and outdoor games, parking for approximately 4–6 vehicles, Wi-Fi, and Smart TVs. Dogs are welcome with prior approval and applicable pet fees.
