Fantastic end of summer weekend!
Our family had a blast spending Labor Day weekend at 2 Whortleberry Island. The house was exactly as described and had all the essentials we needed. We enjoyed the fire pit to make s’mores each night. The kids enjoyed fishing from the two docks and kayak which was available for our use. The weather was absolutely stunning which was a bonus! Communication with the owner, Tamara, was fast and reliable. I would highly recommend this rental to family and friends!

Secret Gem of Big Ol Lake Winni
This home is tucked in a sweet location on the big ol lake in a nice and cozy spot without all the massive amounts of boat traffic. The home was comfortable on the inside and had great outside living space and amenities. The AC units in each room was perfect. Enjoyed our stay at this property!

Great Family Getaway!
Recently spent 4 days here, and it was perfect for my family. We brought our boat up and was easily able to dock at the house. It was a quick boat ride to Meredith and Wolfboro. Spent a day kayaking and paddleboarding. House was clean and tastefully decorated. The kids had a blast and asked if we could return next year!

Paradise Island!
What a wonderful place to stay. Being on this island in one of the best lakes in all of New England is just amazing. The house is a cute, classic lake cabin with a spectacular view of the mountains. We sat on the deck and watched some of the most beautiful sunsets. We swam, fished, and even took a few boat rides to get dinner in Wolfboro and Meredith. What a treat! This is truly a peaceful sanctuary or as my kids called it, “Paradise Island”
