Cozy cottage with beautiful lake views


Welcome to the Spring Street Retreat; a lakeside cottage nestled on a hill overlooking Alton Bay (one of Lake Winnipesaukee’s most popular coves). We're not waterfront, but water views can be enjoyed from the living room, from the dining table, from the deck, and even from your seating around our fire pit.

The cottage sleeps up to 6 guests; dogs are welcome for an extra $15/night per pet.

The cottage offers guests sunny, open living & dining areas, 2 cozy bedrooms, a small kitchen, 1 bathroom, and a ‘bonus’ room downstairs which acts as our entryway, mudroom, workspace, and hangout spot for the kiddos. We have boardgames & puzzles for guests, as well as a smart TV with Roku and Apple TV. There is a window AC unit in the main living space, which cools the living, dining, & kitchen areas.

Our bedrooms are small, but designed comfortably; outfitted with new mattresses & bedding, and each with small dressers and a place to put your luggage. Bedroom 1 has a queen bed, and bedroom 2 has a full bed and bunkbeds. There is no A/C in the bedrooms, however we have plenty of fans for the warmer nights.

Outdoors, we have a large deck with a propane grill, patio table with 4 chairs, and some comfy lounge seating – as well as an outdoor heater for those chillier nights. The deck features baby/pet gates on both openings to keep everyone safe. Walk up a short path from the deck to our large firepit on the hill, overlooking the lake. There’s also a dog run and a hammock amongst the trees.

The cottage is nestled up on a hill with complete privacy (woods) behind the house, and no one immediately on either side. Neighboring houses can be seen in front of the cottage; across the street.

Alton Bay offers restaurants, a country store, ice cream shops, mini golf, and a town beach… and it’s also one of the docking spots for the Mount Washington lake cruise boats. You’ll be just a 15 min drive from beautiful Ellacoya State Park and Gunstock Mountain, 20 mins from Wolfeboro, 25 mins from Weirs Beach, and 30 mins from Laconia & Meredith; and only a few minutes from Mount Major trailhead!

Great location in Alton
Jackie prepared the property nicely. The location was great. It was perfect for family of 4 and pets. The deck and firepit area were great, as well as being able to grill outdoors. The house was well equipped. Would have loved to have a Keurig coffee maker for ease in making coffee rather than drip style maker but it worked out. The view of lake was breathtaking.

Fabulous getaway!
We had an amazing getaway at the Spring Street Retreat. The house was super clean and very cozy from the mattresses, bedding, couches and overall vibe. The private road and community is very quiet and peaceful and we loved walking our dogs in the neighborhood. The lake view was beautiful and while Alton Bay is sleepy in the winter we had everything we needed with Hannafords (excellent grocery store) super close. My boys and I enjoyed skiing at Gunstock. Jackie was super responsive and helpful with questions about the area and things to do. I highly recommend and we can't wait to come back!

Lovely Alton Bay retreat!
We came to Alton Bay for a 5 day vacation including an outdoor concert in Gilford. The house is immaculate and so comfortable. We brought 2 dogs and had everything we needed. The deck is fully furnished and gated so you can sit out with dogs or young children. Beautiful view of the bay. Great local walking trails within 10 miles. Lots of restaurants but kitchen is fully functional so you don’t have to eat out. Drive to concert was easy. We stayed in Sept but house looks like it would also make a cozy winter retreat for skiers. Would love to stay there again next time we vacation in NH!
