About this property

5BR Lake house- Fish. Boat. Swim. 3 miles south of downtown Bethel

  • This 5 bedroom home was built in 2000, and has caretaker in a portion of the barn. The inside is clean, spacious, and comfortable. The kitchen is very big with a bar area that seats 4 comfortably and a large custom kitchen table that seats 10.

    There are acres of property to roam on. 6 acres of land is across the street from the home alongside the pond . There is vegetation (trees and blueberry bushes) right up to the waters edge, with a nice dock area. You must cross the street to get to the dock area. Behind the house, there are some rugged trails and logging roads to roam around on. The logging roads were last used during the 2015 winter, so there should be some fairly open snowshoeing right on the property. The White Mountain National Forest is just to the south accessible near Pattee Brook Marsh and the Albany Notch Trail.

Amazing place

Had a bachelor party for my friend and 10 others and this property was perfect. Clean, well stocked, and a 15 second walk from a great spot on the pond. The hot tub was always in top shape and was great for relaxing after a day in the pond. Would stay again if I’m ever in the area.

Awesome Spot for Big Group

We had a bachelor party and the location and house could not have been more perfect. Plenty of beds (slept 13 guys very comfortably), the pond was right across the street and there was plenty of room to grill and hang out outside. Couldn’t recommend this place anymore!

Graduation Party Getaway

This was a great location for our out of state family and friends to gather and celebrate. Spacious, clean and quiet. Both the care taker and property owner were ready and willing to help if needed.

Graduation Get Away

The outdoor space is amazing with the fire pit and hot tub! The kitchen gave us plenty of space for sharing meals and playing games. We splashed and floated in the pond. This place provided plenty of hand soap, dish soap, trash bags, towels(bath&beach), toilet paper and paper towels. The in house laundry was a major plus with the pond right there! Overall we were very happy with our stay!

Perfect spot for a big group

We stayed here for my buddy’s bachelor party weekend. We had a big group of guys, so having 10 beds was great. The location is great, just a 5 minute ride into downtown Bethel. Nice pond directly across the street from the house too! The communication with the owner, Jim, was excellent and his caretaker lives in another house on the property, but you didn’t even know he was there. Overall great experience, will definitely book this house again in the future.

Fantastic winter stay on Songo pond

Jim's house was wonderful for our weekend ski trip. We had about 10 people staying in the house and we were all able to sleep comfortably, with lots of extra room. The kitchen was large and perfect for cooking for a large number of people. The hottub was also great after a long day on the ski slopes. There were lots of towels and linens available. The house is about 15 minutes away from both Sunday River and Mount Abram and about 8 minutes from Bethel. It's a great location and Jim was a great host. I highly recommend it!

Perfect for Groups!

My friends and nephews decided to book a last minute ski trip and Jim's accommodations opened up right in time for us. It was perfect for our needs. Nice big foyer to take gear off prior to entering the house, big kitchen table for us to all eat together, plenty of lounging space for us to play games, and very comfortable bedding. We also booked this for the jacuzzi, but never got to use it because we were so beat up from the mountain, we got lazy, but it is a huge plus to have that available. This house can also accommodate pets which was a huge requirement. The house is far enough away from the main road and provides a safe space for the pups to run around. Lastly, Jim is very communicative and really helped ensure the check-in process went smoothly. The periodic check-ins throughout the stay were appreciative. Overall, a great host and a great stay here, and would book again. Highly recommend!

The house was great and owner very responsive when we had a couple of questions. The pond is excellent but for our kids, we had to use water shoes as it’s a bit leafy on the bottom. The hot tub was cleaned and tested and tended to every morning.The home was excellent and we loved our stay.

This was a beautiful home, stock full of everything you need on your vacation. The outdoor area was very nice to sit, have a fire and relax in the hot tub. The only problem we had was the house was full of flying ants and carpenter ants.

Excellent cozy stay for a ski weekend

This was a great find at Sunday River to enjoy a ski weekend with friends. All the basics and then some are provided and the short drive to Sunday River was a big plus. Excellent host, friendly and responsive.

This place was great for our big ski group. There were plenty of beds for our whole crew and great hang out areas in the kitchen and living room. The hot tub was perfect after a long day on the slopes. Will definitely come back again next year!
