A Stunning Lakefront home on crystal clear,sandy bottomed, 110 acre Forest Lake at the junction of NH,VT,& MA will be your long awaited retreat in the whispering pines, shimmering lakes, and beautiful foliage of New Hampshire. The Great room with 25' high natural pine cathedral ceiling, skylights, entertainment center and fireplace is comfortably, casually, and uniquely furnished. It looks out over the pristine Forest Lake that lends itself to a memorable vacation with family and friends. A fully equipped gourmet kitchen that incorporates a Jennair oven/range/grill, refrigerator/icemaker and dishwasher with all utensils, equipment, spices, condiments, etc. will make it difficult to try the eclectic restaurants in Keene, New Hampshire or historic Brattleboro, Vermont nearby.
Three Bedrooms (2Q,1D), Queen hide-a-bed in the living room and a 4 season sun-porch with 2 single beds and crib allow for a peaceful nights rest after a nice bath in the Jacuzzi tub with heated towel rack. An additional living room/ sitting area with wood stove gives you a chance to plan your day fishing, swimming off the 150 square foot floating dock, using our canoe, rowboat, or rafts on the lake, cross country or downhill skiing, snowmobiling on marked trails, antiquing and shopping in sales tax free NH, playing golf, hiking, biking, leaf-peeping, or attending one of the many auctions, flea markets concerts, shows or festivals in the area. For a little exercise and a 100 mile view, climb Mt Monadnock, the 2nd most climbed Mtn in the world after Mt Fuji. Afterwards, rest those weary muscles in the 6 person Hot Tub on the back deck overlooking the Lake.
Maybe best of all, just grab a book, snuggle in a chair by the fire,or on one of the 3 outdoor decks and just let your cares drift away as the sun slowly sets out over the lake!

Guest Comment
"This property has everything you need for either a relaxing couples retreat or for hosting a whole group of people. The location has a great view of the lake, with a private outdoor hot tub (great for two) right off the back deck through slider doors. The whole property is very private, however, internet and cell phone reception (verizon) was great, so you are only a phone call from anything you need. We love that the house had so many modern conveniences, but still has the mood of a northern New England woodland retreat. There are many built-ins, beautiful warm wood floors, and lots of options for the warmth and ambiance of fire. The pellet stove in the dining room is toasty after taking a dip in the hot tub, which is it's own experience with crisp cool air and the fall foliage. There is also a wood stove, a gas fireplace, a fire pit, and one of those heat lamp things near the fire pit. Combustibles are stocked conveniently and ready for your use. There is a charcoal grill and a large Kirkland gas grill. The sunroom with the lake view (great for sitting and sipping wine, watching wildlife, while listening to the rain) is another bonus. If the weather is agreeable, there is a hammock and swing, and plenty of seating for all. The owners are very personable and friendly, and provided tons of info before the visit. They stayed out of the way, but we appreciate that they checked in on the first day to make sure things were going well. Everything in their home is labeled so you can find and use things without frustration. Kitchen is stocked, but I think the previous guests finished any local maple syrup. :) You'd probably want to get some while you're out here anyway. The furnishings are eclectic and fun - just check out the huge collection of books (and dvds for the kids). The couches and beds were comfortable and and there are about 100 different quilts and blankets available, so you can get really cozy. There is a super walmart not too far, so if you do need anything, you can find it there, but also many smaller, local shops. The owners left a binder with a ton of things to do and see in the area. There are also personal notes about some of these areas, which are helpful. We wish we planned for a longer stay. This property could be enjoyed year round. 10 out of 10; 5 star; highly recommended; we would definitely come back for a repeat visit."
