Winnisquam Lake Retreat | Your Summer on Lake Winnisquam Lakefront. Mountain views. Your own dock. And summer in New Hampshire. Welcome to Winnisquam Lake Retreat—a classic New Hampshire lakefront home where the best part of your vacation is waiting right outside the door. This isn't just a house on the lake. This is a place to slow down, get on the water, fire up the grill, and spend the kind of summer days you wish lasted forever. A View Worth Building a Home Around There's a reason this particular spot was chosen. This was the first home built on this stretch of Lake Winnisquam, and the original owner intentionally selected the property for its incredible views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Decades later, the view is still the star. Start your morning with coffee in the sunroom overlooking the water. Spend the afternoon lakeside. Fire up the grill for dinner and finish the night around the fire pit with the mountains reflecting across the lake. Bring the Boat. Bring the Family. Stay Awhile. For boaters, the property has a private seasonal dock that accommodates boats up to 22 feet. Guests bringing a boat or trailer can use the public boat launch in Laconia, then bring the boat back to your private dock for the duration of your stay. That means you can wake up, walk down to the water, and be on the lake without loading the boat onto a trailer every day. Whether you're cruising the lake, swimming, fishing, tubing, or just floating the afternoon away, Lake Winnisquam is your backyard. The Perfect Lakes Region Location One of the things guests love about this home is that you get the peaceful feeling of being on the lake without being far from everything. Just down the road is The Lake Estate on Winnisquam, a brand-new luxury resort, spa and event destination. Staying here is especially convenient for guests attending weddings and events there who want the privacy and space of an entire lakefront home. And when you're ready to eat: - Tilton House of Pizza — multiple-time winner of NH's Best Pizza - Tilt'n Diner — a true New Hampshire classic - Tanger Outlets Tilton — shopping just minutes away Then head out and explore Laconia, Weirs Beach, Meredith, Lake Winnipesaukee, Squam Lake and the rest of the Lakes Region. Your Summer, Your Way Maybe your perfect day starts with coffee overlooking the lake. Maybe it's six hours on the water followed by burgers on the grill. Maybe it's a day exploring the Lakes Region, dinner at a local favorite, and s'mores around the firepit. Or maybe you don't leave the property at all. That's the beauty of Winnisquam Lake Retreat. The home is available May through October so you can experience New Hampshire's best season—when the lake is calling, the mountains are green, and long summer evenings are meant to be spent outside. What You'll Love - Direct Lake Winnisquam waterfront - Lake & mountain views - Private seasonal dock for boats up to 22' - Waterfront firepit - Gas grill - Sunroom overlooking the lake - Large waterfront yard - Historic first home on this stretch of shoreline - Minutes to Tilton, Laconia & Lakes Region attractions - Close to Tanger Outlets - Close to Tilton House of Pizza & Tilt'n Diner - Convenient to The Lake Estate on Winnisquam Important Dock & Boat Information The dock is seasonal and is typically installed in early May and removed in mid-October. The dock accommodates boats up to 22 feet. Guests bringing boats and trailers should use the public boat launch in Laconia. The property's driveway can be difficult to maneuver with a boat trailer, so trailers should not be brought onto the property. If dock access is important to your stay, please contact us before booking to confirm the dock will be in place during your dates. Come Back to the Lake There's a reason guests keep coming back to Winnisquam Lake Retreat. The view. The water. The location. The memories. Come spend your summer on Lake Winnisquam. *Please Inquire about our monthly or winter rental options. Winter Rental available November through April.
