Just 15-minutes from skiing and adventure sports at Mount Sunapee, and 1-hour to Okemo Mountain, Perkins Pond cottage is a waterfront retreat with everything you need for a relaxing family vacation at any time of year. Our cheerful and light-filled cottage was designed with family vacations in mind, from the bunk beds and board games to the well-organized kitchen and no-tears kids' shampoo. The ma
in floor features an open floor plan with a wall of windows so you can take in the fabulous lake views while you...
• Cook a family meal in the well-equipped kitchen with a gas range, dishwasher, full-size refrigerator, microwave, Keurig, kettle, and all the pots and pans you could possibly need.
• Netflix and chill in front of the smart TV under cozy throw blankets
• Plug your phone into the sound system and enjoy music through the in-ceiling speakers
• Eat and play board and card games at the dining table that seats 6 comfortably (with extra chairs available for 8 total guests)
OUTSIDE....
Open the glass doors to sip your morning coffee (or evening glass of wine) in the Adirondack chairs on the lakeside lawn and take in the stunning views of Perkins Pond and the neighboring hills. At the private dock you can go for a swim; fish for chain pickerel, bass, bluegill, and more; search for cute little salamanders in the shallows, and take a trip around Perkins Pond in our red canoe! A variety of life jackets are available. If you want to bring your own boat (powerboats are allowed, and water-skiing is fun!), the public boat ramp is just up the street. When it's time to unwind, stretch out on the outdoor sofa and enjoy the mountain breeze. The patio also features a charcoal grill and outdoor dining set for 6. BED & BATH....
At the end of the day, head upstairs where you'll find a full bath (bathtub/shower combo) and two spacious bedrooms. The light-filled master bedroom features large windows with beautiful water views, a queen bed with a Casper mattress, a ceiling fan, and black-out shades so you can sleep in. A window A/C is available in summertime. The master bedroom also boasts a desk with a USB charging station as well as a computer monitor, mouse, and keyboard. There's also a nook with a washer and dryer in the master bedroom, and we provide you with laundry detergent, wool dryer balls, and a drying rack. What kid doesn't love bunk beds? Down the hall, the second bedroom is the perfect spot for kids with two bunk beds, plus a queen bed with a memory foam mattress. Two dressers offer ample room for storage, and the window has a blackout shade. FOR DOG OWNERS:
We're dog owners, and we know how tough it is to find a nice vacation rental that welcomes our furry friend. That's why your house-trained pooch is a welcomed guest at Perkins Pond Cottage. Food and water bowls, a crate big enough for large breeds, and a 20-ft in-ground lead are available for your pooch. Your dog must be disclosed in your booking request, and there is a $50 fee per pet to cover the extra cleaning costs (because shed happens!). This will be billed as a separate charge through Airbnb. A NOTE ABOUT GROUP SIZE:
6 adults are permitted because adults are not allowed on the top bunks. If you're a family with children, we do have space for 8. Please describe the number of people when booking - many thanks! You must be at least 25 years old to rent. Absolutely no parties, and no smoking on the property. The use of fireworks is not permitted. Please respect the neighbors and leave our home in the great condition you found it.
Your dog is welcome, too! At night, roast marshmallows in the Solo Stove fire pit (we provide the skewers!) while star-gazing. Need to get some work done?
