In the morning you may find a parade of ducks gliding by in the brook or a blue hereon peeking out of the reeds along the brook. From the deck you’ll enjoy a small yard space with a second deck connected directly to the small dock on the brook.

The homeowner just had three new mini-split heat/ac units installed! Shannon Brook does have the convenience of kayaking, fishing, and boating right in from your backyard.

Great location, but some details should be addressed
I have stayed at many vacation homes over the last ten years and I would start by saying this was a great little house in a great location! You are right on the brook that accesses the lake! We brought our pontoon boat up the brook with no problem at all and docked it right at the house. The home itself is a nice little place, a/c works great, cute little kitchen, spacious bathroom, clean and homey. I was VERY dissatisfied however with the fact that the list of amenities included a washer and dryer but when we got there we discovered they were locked up. Property manager got back to us and said they were owner use only. So therefore, they should NOT be listed in the amenities. We came with limited clothes and beach towels thinking we could wash/reuse. Also, the blind in the big bay window overlooking the street does not close. That was a privacy issue as it is a very busy street. We were left only one roll of paper towels and 2 of TP for 4 and a half days of vacation. Several kitchen utensils were melted and clearly very old. The drawers in the bedroom were full of owner’s clothes leaving us no place to unpack our things. And probably worst of all, there was an electric hair clipper in the bathroom drawer full of black hair shavings. That was very unpleasant to find. If those things were rectified this rental would be top notch tho!! The location was fantastic and we had an amazing lake vacation with convenient access to the lake!

as advertised...
Really needs some tlc... broken blinds, plastic window sealer. Listen. It is a good location at a fair price that allows pets. We were in the area for a reunion and only slept at the home. The photos are a fair representation of what you are going to get.

Great location
Loved it! Had 8 the mattresses although we made work were not that comfortable . Pull out sofa for very big son. We had a lot of laughs about it! Loved the location. We had a jet boat. Made it very easy to navigate the river just as you said. Weather was not suppose to be good. I would of have it a 10 but Sunday it poured and packing up was a little wet! Hopefully will return ! Thanks

Cozy home in an unbeatable location
While the check-in process was less than ideal I have nothing but praise for this home and it’s location. Having the river access was so convenient and peaceful. While the beach is always a fun time it was nice to enjoy a private oasis on the dock on the river. Having kayaks available was a treat and the outdoor space was open and well maintained. The home had 3 air conditioning units that worked remarkably and kept us comfortable (if not chilled) when relaxing indoors and sleeping. The living space is open, cozy and clean. Hard to tell if neighbors on either side were owners or other renters but they were very friendly. Despite being there for 4th of July week we found the neighborhood was quiet and respectful without disturbances. We hope to return for 4th of July next year and make this an annual occurrence. Thank you Paradise!

This property fit the purpose and people of this trip perfectly. Great location - close enough to the action of Laconia and Bike Week, but far enough away to be peaceful.

Weekend Trip
We enjoyed the waterview and having dinner out on the deck. We were lucky enough to be there the weekend the neighbor across the street had a party with a live band. We sat by the fire in the back yard and enjoyed their music. The homeowner is in the process of renovating and we can't wait to see the improvements when we visit Moultenborough again.

Great place to stay
We rented this house for our annual fishing trip. The house was clean and well maintained. There were many amenities including a boat dock, grill, and AC (which was nice due to the near record breaking temperatures the weekend we were there). The house is on a brook, and it took some practice to navigate around the shallow areas when heading out to the lake. Not a big deal though. For larger boats, or for those who prefer not to attempt to navigate around the sand bars, the boat ramp is very close. The other really nice thing about this place was the parking; the house a nice driveway right off the road, which was easy to back a trailer in and out of. We look forward to coming back next year Thank you
