Vacationer's oasis on the waterfront of picturesque Pearly Pond.

I'm a sweet little cottage (circa 1900) looking for fun-loving vacationers to 'treat me right'. I'll provide idyllic memories you'll fondly remember in years to come. My evening sunsets, quiet location and spacious yard are topped off by a breathtaking view of majestic Mt. Monadnock. Sip on your beverage on the enclosed front porch while observing the natural beauty of Pearly Pond. Upstairs: 2 bedrooms face the water with a queen size bed and bureau in one and a full in the other. Across the hall is the 3rd bedroom with a queen bed, a large dresser and 2 closets. A full bath completes the upstairs. Main level: mudroom, kitchen, living room with double reclining love seat, double reclining couch, rocking chair and glider rocker, dining room seats 6. Living room door opens to enclosed/screen porch with couch, table with 2 chairs and unobstructed view of Pearly Pond. Out the front door a few steps to 110' of water frontage & fabulous view of Mt. Monadnock.


Four season opportunities for vacation.: This is a seasonal vacation opportunity yielding all the activities surrounding each Summer and Fall. In the Fall, the foliage is right in front of you at the cottage or you may want to go on an auto excursion on the back roads and discover the brilliant colors that Mother Nature creates with all the species of hardwoods that are abundant in this section of NH. There are many attractions in the area suitable for the whole family as well as stores, restaurants and services.

Wonderful week at the lake. So relaxing, kayaking was terrific, saw the loons. Reading out by the water, grilling out, s'mores by the fire. We even found time to do a puzzle. We just love it there.

This is our third time at Pearly Pond and this time we stayed for 2 glorious weeks. The cottage is cozy, the lake is clear and beautiful, Gary and Linda are the best owners ever. If I could rent it for the entire summer, I would!

The property was immaculate. The cabana area was plenty large enough for our friends and family to enjoy dinner. Ample lawn furniture to sit and visit and enjoy the view of Mount Monadnock. Would love to visit again.

Perfect New Hampshire Getaway
We just love staying at this beautiful and serene lakeside cottage with a beautiful view of Mt. Monadnock! It is very quiet, private and clean with lots of homey touches. We end up spending the majority of our time on the large screened porch looking out at the lake, or sitting out on the lawn. Great amenities include sheltered outdoor dining area, dock and canoe, fire pit. This was our second time and we will be going back for more!

It’s our happy place!
Another perfect vacation on Pearly Pond! One of our most relaxing vacations ever. I asked my 10 year old why she liked staying here and she said “I love the lake, the house is so cozy, and the owners are so nice!” It’s so homey and comfortable, with space to get together and space to grab some alone time. We were still on this year’s vacation when we booked 2 weeks for next year!

Wonderful Stay On Pearly Pond!
Our week in the cabin on Pearly Pond was restful and full of fun. We spent a lot of time kayaking and fishing. We caught some really nice largemouth bass! The house is well-equipped and comfy. We especially loved sitting on the screen porch. Gary and Linda are great hosts! Hopefully, we can come back again next year!

Another perfect 2 weeks....
One of my favorite moments of the year is when I arrive at the cottage, get out of the car, and glimpse the lake sparkling in the sun - that's the moment my vacation officially begins. This is our 4th stay here and each one is better than the last. There's fun things to enjoy together, and enough space for us (me, my husband, and our 12 year old daughter) to have some downtime alone to relax and decompress. I can't say enough about Gary and Linda - they are the best possible hosts. We all look forward to seeing them again as much as we look forward to our vacation! If you are thinking of booking this beautiful lakeside cottage, don't hesitate - do it! You'll be so happy you did.

Pearly Lake
Had a great stay at this comfortably rustic cottage on Pearly Lake/Pond with a beautiful view of Mt. Monadnock. Owner met us at our arrival and explained all the nuances like the on-demand hot water, water softener, and smart TV. Told us that it was the peak of rhododendron blooming at Rhododendron State Park in nearby Fitzwilliam which we visited twice. We were able to contact the owner directly instead of going through VRBO messaging. All was good!

A true pearl
This pearl of an oasis is on Pearly Pond with a breath-taking view of Mount Watchusett. Nestled in a quiet cove, it is still close to local amenities, trails and restaurants. The cabin has everything a person could image to bring on vacation such as nice cookware, beach towels, and games. The home boasts a lovely screened in porch and a beautiful dock with canoe and kayak. We highly recommend this cabin. Gary and Linda are consumate hosts!!

Great view of Mt Monadnock
My son and I really enjoyed our time at this cottage and would like to come back in the summer sometime. Since it was cool and rainy a lot we visited towns in the area and did some hiking when the weather was nice. The cottage is cute and comfortable and equipped with all that you will need. Nice grocery nearby and a few restaurants too.

Beautiful Tranquil Location
This is our second time renting this property and we were once again happy to have stayed at such a beautiful, tranquil setting. The location was perfect for us being close to Monadnock (hiked again this year!), Keene, and Brattleboro a bit farther away. If you love Indian food, make sure to visit Royal Spice about 20 minutes away in Troy. It is amazing!

Quiet getaway
Cosy cottage right on lake, perfect for paddleboards (we brought our own) kayaks or canoes to launch from. Well supplied with linens/towels and kitchen gear, as well as a fireplace. Right at end of lane so very quiet. Dining alcove table is awesome place for puzzles. Stairs are steep and bathroom is on second floor, which was not an issue for us but potentially something to be aware of for others. Lovely place would love to go back sometime!

We had a wonderful time, the cottage was everything and more. Gary and Linda have put a lot of thought into their property and it shows. I loved reading out by the water, we swam every day. The pond is great for kayaking, so peaceful, actually we never left the cottage all week. Can't wait to come back.

Ideal family vacation
We were very happy with our week stay at Pearly Pond, swimming and boating in the canoe every day with our grandchild and family. ThIs a traditional NH cabin is not fancy, but highly functional with two different screened-in eating areas, small dock and big lawn. We just cooked good food and relaxed. The owners were very responsive to all communication. We would definitely stay again.

Idyllic!
Our week here was wonderful! The cottage is cozy and comfortable, the lake is beautiful and the view magnificent. Gary and Linda were charming, helpful, and very easy to communicate with. They included considerate l;ttle touches like extra throws for chilly nights, a 10 lb bag of ice in the freezer, and a variety of Keurig cups for your morning coffee. We hope to be back again!

Relaxin' on Pearly Pond
My husband, daughter, and I traveled from western NC to spend a week with my brother and his wife who live in New Hampshire. We loved staying at the cabin on Pearly Pond with its beautiful view of Mount Monadnock. Gary and Linda were wonderful hosts...we loved the great selection of coffee for the Keurig, fresh roses in the vase in the bedroom, and candies in the living room. The house was clean and everyone thought the beds were super comfortable. The kitchen was well appointed for cooking. We especially enjoyed sitting on the screen porch, kayaking around the pond, and fishing from the dock. We caught several fish including some large bass (which we returned to the lake) and some tasty bream! If you are lucky enough to spend time at this wonderful cabin, we recommend taking a field trip to the Dublin General Store where you can get HUGE freshly baked cookies including delicious molasses cookies. We also kayaked beautiful Willard Pond in an Audubon sanctuary near Antrim where were saw several loons and wood ducks. We have stayed at numerous houses and cabins around the country, and we enjoyed our stay at Pearly Pond the most!

Wonderful Spot
Gary and Linda are fantastic, very detail-oriented hosts and we loved staying in such a comfortable house right on a lake in very tranquil surroundings. I love swimming and this lake is warmer than any of the many places I have stayed before in New Hampshire, where I have been going since childhood to see family. . We spent most of our time hanging out outside by the lake or on the screened porch with beautiful views of the lake and Mount Monadnock. The location is very convenient to a large grocery store and a NH State Liquor Store. It feels authentic rather than like some Pottery Barn clone which made us very happy.

Spotless, well-equipped, and quiet
We had a wonderful week of rowing, kayaking, swimming, fishing, biking on the nearby rail trail to Jaffrey, and hiking Mt. Monadnock. The cottage is very cute and tidy, and it's a very quiet lake (no jet skis). The kitchen is very well stocked with pots, pans, and essentials for eating in. Linda and Gary have done a great job making guests feel comfortable. Grocery stores are nearby as are restaurants and a classic diner. Nearby wooded trail for walking the dog. Overall, a great vacation week!

Perfection!
From the moment we pulled up to the cottage to the second we left, our stay was simply amazing! Clothing and food are all you need to bring because everthing else you might need or want is provided. The spectacular views of Pearly Lake and Mount Monadnock were mesmerizing - we had a hard time leaving the screened in porch. We can't say enough about how much we loved our stay. Thank you Gary and Linda for offering your home for the enjoyment of others. We look forward to staying here in the future!!

Pearly Pond in August-really 'cool'
Given the heat wave of this summer, we wondered if we would find ourselves sweltering in this charming 1900's cottage. However, our stay was delightful. The break in the weather helped (the heat actually came on one morning!), but the pleasant grounds sloping down to the lake, the dock for sitting and enjoying the view, the well equipped kitchen (loved having accessories hanging from the beams and all those seasonings!), the clean and well appointed cottage made for a great week. Our 6 adults, 1 toddler, and 2 dogs fit nicely; the stairs to the bedrooms were quite negotiable, and meals and after dinner games and conversation on the screened porch thoroughly enjoyable. Climbing Pack Monadnock provided an afternoon of good exercise. The view from the top was somewhat limited by the clouds, but non the less spectacular. The blueberries at Monadnockberries (pick your own) were the best we had seen this year. Canoeing on the lake was pleasant (few motor-boaters and the lily pads were in bloom). We enjoyed some time in Peterborough (great bookstore and Arts Center), and the area offers much more than we had time to explore. Although we experienced evening 'fly-bys' of wild geese, none were actually seen swimming or on shore in our area. Had we realized how close we would be to the full service grocery stores (yes, 2 within a few miles) and farm markets, we probably would have packed a lot less food/supplies for the week. The accessibility to Boston was important for the busy young adults in our family, and other than the weekend, the area was quite peaceful. The owners were quite helpful, however we didn't experience and 'emergencies' that required their intervention during our stay. We highly recommend the cottage.
