Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Merrimack County

We had a great stay at Brandon’s place. The house is cozy and clean, and the location right on the lake made it really special. We grilled every night, used the kayaks during the day, and hung out by the fire pit in the evenings. It was super quiet and peaceful, and the view from the dining table made board games and meals even better. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the whole space just had a really relaxed, homey feel. Brandon was easy to communicate with and everything went smoothly. It was a great spot to unplug and enjoy some time by the water — we’d definitely come back.

The Riverside Retreat was a great home-away-from-home for my family and me as we visited the area for a relative's wedding. It is located in a peaceful and beautifully scenic area and the cozy house was literally a retreat from the ongoing rain we had during our stay. We loved the well equipped, spacious, and clean kitchen and gym, and made good use of the projector screen, hot tub, and sauna! Beds might be a bit small if your party is all adults / couples, so do check your sleeping arrangements as part of your trip planning. Couches were comfy enough for some in our party, but perhaps not ideal if for longer stays. Overall, staying here was instrumental for quality family time, and we'd recommend it if you're looking for a retreat in this area!

Despite some snow and a power outage, our family had a nice, relaxing Thanksgiving holiday at this property. The gas fireplace was a blessing and helped us stay warm during the outage. The house was well-equipped and had all amenities as advertised. Merrill was a great host!

Clean and comfortable home as described. Convenient to New London and 20 - 25 minutes from Mt Sunapee. Beds were comfortable and host was great. Would stay here again.

Darryl’s house was extremely enjoyable. It had everything we needed, and we had a very relaxing time at the lake. It felt private, amazing views, and was very comfortable.

Great place to stay with family and/or friends. lots of room to stretch out and enjoy the space. Everything was very clean and well organized. The host was very responsive answering a few questions that I had. Two thumbs up for sure

Perfect getaway, can’t wait to stay again!

We have been visiting the New London/Sunapee area for years. This was one of our favorite places to stay! It was so peaceful and just what we needed. It was clean, comfortable, and the perfect location. A lovely stay.

Loved staying here and having the water right outside, so beautiful. My pup loved running laps around the fenced in yard, will definitely want to come back and stay again when it’s not raining!

My sister and I were interested in a spending very relaxing weekend in a cozy setting where we could unplug and recharge from the stresses of our every day lives and this place really fit the bill. The setting is lovey and the antique home is filled with charm. We were lucky enough to choose a peak foliage weekend and the views out of the enormous windows were breathtaking. The area itself is also filled with New England charm and lots of places to explore. It all went by too fast but the weekend was exactly what we needed. Out hosts were wonderful. We had absolutely everything we needed. I would definitely recommend staying with them in the very private space attached to their home. We definitely plan to stay again!

Had a great stay…would love to stay again

We had such a wonderful stay at Peter’s place this weekend! It was one of the nicest Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in. Very clean, cozy and super welcoming. We were so happy to be able to bring our pup along and the location was perfect. It was close to the lake and great local restaurants. The view from the deck was absolutely beautiful!

Perfect Airbnb. We stayed for a long weekend and had a wonderful time. The hot tub, pool table, dart board, piano, book collection, and giant tv ensured we were never bored. The view was incredible, it felt like we were in a movie. The hosts answered very quickly whenever we had a question, and they also ensured we had a lot of privacy, which was really appreciated. 10000/10! I would stay here again and again and again. No complaints at all.

Two words: galaxy lights 🤩 actually more words, Victoria’s apartment was so cozy and comfortable and the bed was super soft and I probably the best night of sleep I’ve had at an Airbnb so far. Location is close to town as well!!

I would give this 10 stars if I could. I’ve stayed at quite a few Airbnbs and this is at the top of my list. The apartment is so clean and has so much attention to detail. It felt like home away from home. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking. My boyfriend and I spent a whole night dedicated to playing the board games provided. I wish we could’ve stayed more than 2 nights and we will definitely be back!

Such a relaxing stay! My husband and I stayed here for a few nights, and we found the location perfect for what we were looking for. Close to many yummy restaurants in Alton Bay and Wolfeboro (5-15 minutes). About 30 minutes from Weirs Beach . The road that Tony and Sonja live on is very quiet. We took a beautiful walk around the neighborhood with a view of Lake Winni. The Airbnb itself is beautiful. Very clean and well equipped. It's right above the garage and up a small flight of stairs. We can't wait to come back one day!

Me and my party enjoyed every minute of our stay at Tom’s cabin! The cabin itself was spacious, cozy, and clean. The surroundings were also beautiful, right next to a nice neighborhood and lake. Thomas was a fantastic host and was extremely friendly and helpful. He was always there to answer questions and help out when needed. Overall, amazing trip and I would 100% go back!

Hilary’s place is the perfect place to relax or to stay with the intention of going on a hike to Mount Cardigan. It’s well equipped with everything you need for cooking, lounging and showering. And for those who don’t have dogs, don’t worry about cleanliness. I could roll around on those carpets. The bed is super soft. You sink right in. It was raining a lot the weekend I was there and I also had a zoom meeting for work so we didn’t go outside. WiFi was super fast. And honestly, it’s so cozy and clean in there, I was happy to stay in the whole weekend.

Natalia’s home was beautiful! We stayed for a winter ice fishing weekend with a few couples, including dogs and babies. The home was right on the ice, which was perfect for our purpose. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and be comfortable. The living room seating was particularly great- everyone always had a comfy spot to sit. We enjoyed our stay!

Great place! Perfect kind of cabin for a weekend getaway. Will definitely book again!

Wonderfully peaceful, tranquil setting on the lake, in the woods. Perfect for a quiet getaway to reflect and renew. Everything was exactly as described, and Laurel was a gracious and responsive host. The cabin was rustic yet newly refinished, very clean, well equipped. Enjoyed the screened in gazebo, loved sitting by the water as well, plus experiencing the lake in the canoe and kayak. Also enjoyed some great hiking and views at Mt Kearsarge which is less than 20 minutes away. And finally -- the sounds of the loons after sunset. Grateful for three days of renewal!

honestly, the photos don't do it justice. it is a beautiful area and it's honestly bigger than it looks. it's in the perfect spot and is surrounded by activities let alone all the amenities the host has to offer. even when weather wasn't ideal, just staying in was still a nice retreat. they have a lot of board games and so many movies and the chromecast so we were able to use our favorite streaming services. this home has such a cozy and relaxing atmosphere / environment and honestly we were sad to go. we'd definitely be back if we choose to go to new hampshire again, forty minute drive to franconia, hour drive to mount washington, i mean it was perfect. there is nothing about where we stayed / what we did that i'd change. if you're going to new hampshire, seriously, consider staying here. it's gorgeous

This place was absolutely amazing – clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything you could possibly want for a perfect vacation. The fireplace, jacuzzi, spacious kitchen, bunk bed for kids, and outdoor games were all fantastic! The highlight is definitely the location, nestled near the beautiful White Mountains region. I’d love to come back, and next time, I’ll bring my family. This trip with friends was unforgettable!

Can't say enough about this beautiful home. Sara made me felt welcome being immediately responsive & making sure I was comfortable plus the lovely gift bag with the s'mores was an added touch. Thank you for having me & my friends & will be back whenever I'm in the area especially for a concert.
