Description of the Barnstead vacation home rental
Gather with friends or family at our charming, 3-bedroom, lakefront home on Locke Lake. Cathedral ceilings, pine-clad walls and a wood-burning, brick fireplace give this open-concept, saltbox style home a roomy but cozy, log cabin feel for that hard-earned family vacation or romantic retreat. Don't want to miss the big game? Light the fireplace, cuddle up on the luxurious leather sectional sofa, and enjoy your favorite sporting event or movie on the wall-mounted 46” flat panel TV. SW exposure provides plenty of sunshine for our private sandy beach, oversized deck and living/dining area. Bring your boat along for some water skiing, tubing or fishing, and moor it to our private dock for the duration of your stay. Shoot some hoops, or make s'mores while relaxing around our lakeside firepit!! Winter sports your thing? We have miles of snowmobile or x-country skiing trails nearby, or you can venture to one of the local mountain resorts for some downhill skiing/sledding.

Reviews for this vacation home rental in Barnstead, New Hampshire
Review Submitted: July 5, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
we just returned from the rainiest vacation EVER but we still had a great time! the house was exactly as described and had plenty of room for 2 families with 5 and 8yo daughters to run around and not be in one anothers space.
the beachfront was very nice and allowed easy access for even a non-swimmer to get in the water. we brought our canoe and explored the lake which is quite large, but there is a paddleboat that you could use as well.
my daughter caught her first fish - a small sunnie - right off the dock - she was thrilled!
my only complaint would have to be that there is not much in the area do on a rainy day. we had to drive 30mins or more to find activities to do with the kids on a couple of the days but really its not much of a problem. if we had had good weather we would have been on the beach every day and at the playgrounds and the golf course. hopefully we will have 7 sunny days the next time we return!
all in all, our 2 families have gone on vacation together for the last 5 years and this home was the most fun for all of us and we highly recommend it to anyone with children!

I can't say enough good things about our experience. Everything was as stated and more. The house, the contacts, the lake, the nearby attractions were all excellent. My family and I enjoyed ourselves immensely. Our contact April was friendly and helpful. Kevin was excellent to work with. Basically I can't wait till next year to go back up for more snowmobiling, skiing, skating, shopping and fun.

I can't say enough about this beautiful, spacious, open concept house situated directly on the lake. Plenty of room for all to stay and play. A huge couch to snuggle up on in front of a beautiful upreaching brick fireplace while you gaze off through several sets of glass doors to view the lake. A great place during winter as the moon lights up the snow and makes for a perfect setting. I especially appreciated the child friendly atmosphere...having a one year old who likes to get into things, I loved the gates, high chair and outlet covers that were already in place upon arrival. As an avid cook, I found everything I needed to fire a gourmet dinner in the kitchen and on the provided grill. Easy access to the lake in winter allows you to snowmobile right out of the yard or icefish (just be sure to buy a license). I highly recommend this rustic get-away and look forward to my next stay.

We found the Locke Lake Home Escape to be a placid, peaceful and wonderful vacation get away. The weather was great, the sunsets were great, the house and deck were great providing a private and quiet week. We hope to be back very soon! Thanks for a great vacation -- we needed it. Sue & John
