Where the Mountain meets the Lake. Lakefront cottage, views of Mount Kearsarge!

***7-night minimum in warmer months, Saturday check in/out***
Drink in the stunning views of Mount Kearsarge across the water and listen to the call of loons at this sweet Bradley Lake cottage. With direct lake access from the private dock, unobstructed views, a comfortable deck and cozy interior, this location affords year-round adventure on the protected shores of Bradley Lake, abutting vast woodlands. A retreat that mixes ample amenities with outdoor adventure!

In the warmer seasons enjoy easy access to hiking at nearby Mt. Kearsarge and Winslow State Parks, a 58-mile long rail trail for running or biking, swimming on the far end of Bradley Lake, Mountain Biking at Highland Mountain Bike Park, and golfing at Kearsarge Valley Golf Course. Paddle out into the lake (two kayaks, one canoe and life jackets provided), or fish for smallmouth bass, pickerel, and perch. Spend evenings catching fireflies and roasting marshmallows around the fire pit.

Swimming is not allowed directly at the cottage, as per town regulations. There is a public access point (mix of grass and sand) a two-minute walk from the cottage. The second (and best) place to swim is the 'swimming island' in the middle of the lake which you can access by canoe (in under 5 minutes).

In the winter enjoy downhill skiing at Mt Sunapee & Ragged Mountain, ice fishing, and unlimited backcountry (XC) skiing & snowshoeing.

The kitchen is fully equipped with all the basics: refrigerator and freezer, oven, stove, toaster, drip coffee machine, water kettle, blender, pots and pans, cooking and eating utensils. There is a gas grill on the deck for your use in the warmer months.

The cottage has one bedroom with a queen bed and large walk-in closet, and two very small bedrooms, one with a single bed and the other with a double loft bed.

Please note that the cottage has one quirk, which is that to enter the large bedroom you must pass through the bathroom.

There are mini-splits for heating and cooling in the open living area and the large bedroom, as well as a wood stove.

The cottage offers robust and fast internet at 1 gigabit so bring your laptops! A selection of books and board games are available for your enjoyment.

There are exterior security cameras on the property.

Beautiful NH Cabin
My mother and sister needed a much earned vacation and this little cabin on Bradley lake was perfect. They loved waking in the morning and looking at Mt Kearsarge in the distance with the loons floating on the lake in front of them. Thanks for the stay.

Cute lake house on the water. My kids loved playing by the dock and my husband brought his fishing kayak. Great gravel riding in the area - the Kearsarge Classic route is 2 miles away. We really enjoyed the Andover fireworks.

Very nice small clean cottage. Perfect for 2 or small family. Had all accessories necessary for cooking. Great little quiet lake for canoe & kayak. Small beach area but meet very nice people. Wish bed was a bit bigger & not so low. Tough for us old people!!! But we loved our stay and would recommend it.
