I stayed in a cottage here for one night while on a business trip. The cottage was spotless and very homey. The beds were very comfortable and covered with beautiful vintage quilts. The property has lake frontage and my room had a beautiful view of Squam Lake. I was warmly welcomed by the staff and look forward to visiting here... More

My wife & I visited this charming lake side resort in late September to celebrate her birthday. We stayed in cabin 1, which in person far exceeds the high expectations we had from the picture. The owners could not have been more friendly or helpful. The cabin cleanliness was exceptional and the beach on the lake was also in perfect... More

From the owner (Sue) to the operations manager (Karen) to the handyman (Jim) - the staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. They did everything in their power to insure that we had the best possible vacation. The rooms were clean, basic efficiency style decorated to match the New England surroundings. The grounds were equally charming and well... More

Country/lake charm... nothing fancy, just welcoming and homey. Great coffee and baked goods available in the office each morning. The perfect vacation spot for us- beautiful lake, cheap... More

this is an older facility and is furnished to match that theme. The rooms are clean but appear rustic. There are both individual cottages and rooms in a larger building. Please note that there is no air conditioning in the cottages. there is a very nice beach on Little Squam Lake which is across the road. Most of the staff... More

The Cottage Place was the perfect getaway for our family! The cottage we stayed in was just the right size for our 4 person family. It was cozy and intimate...just what we were looking for. We greatly enjoyed the private beach and appreciated the peaceful boat rides with our family on the beautiful lake. The staff was very warm and... More

We recently spent a night at cozy cottages. We were in the main hotel and the view to the lake is beautiful. The room was very clean but the decor is very dated. Everything is painted green and the furniture looks old. It's a great place for a family with the kitchenette and extra bed in the main room. Just... More

Thank you for leaving a review for the Cottage Place on Squam Lake. We are glad that you found our property to be very clean. I just wanted to comment on the "out dated" decor so that others might understand how we choose to decorate. We are NH born and raised and have been collectors of funky and interesting things...
