Holiday rentals with a kayak in Shapleigh

a wonderful place to stay.

We stayed at the Whispering Pines house for a holiday weekend and loved it! The house was comfortable and peaceful with a beautiful view of the pond. We had a mix of rainy and sunny days, so we got to enjoy the kayaks and paddle boat along with the enclosed porch which looked right out at the pond. Erin was very quick to respond to any questions we had as well. Would recommend and would definitely stay again in the future!

The Pancake House was the perfect getaway! Peaceful, relaxing, comfortable, and charming! The house is better than the photos can show, and offered plenty of space for fun and relaxation. We enjoy evenings by the fire after enjoying the sunset on the lake!

We would definitely go back for another stay. Carl is a wonderful host and was very responsive and helpful. The house is beautiful and is located in such a tranquil and scenic location. We are a family of 6 along with our black lab and everyone fit comfortably. I highly recommend this place for a family get away.

We had a great time. Got to kayak around the pond several times. The jet skis and other motor boats and the gravel place were a little loud at times. That was my only complaint.

Delightful Fall getaway. Open house design with gorgeous view of lake. Nice big yard with seating and fire-pit. VERY comfortable beds, and bathroom with 2 sinks! Kitchen had everything we needed - plus fruit and candy! Even the laundry room was beautiful! James was most thoughtful and responsive as our host. Recommend highly!

We had a great stay! Loved the views and hot tub. It was so close to town but felt private with the privacy fence. Owners were very responsive! Thanks for a great stay

We had a great time here. The house was very clean and had plenty of supplies. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We had a great time at Robert’s place. The home has everything you could want, and there are plenty of things to do in the area. It was a great home base for our weekend! The kids loved the game room!

Smokey pines is the perfect getaway. It's private, secluded yet close to the towns and people we want to visit. It feels homey and comfortable and has all the amenities required. We'll definitely be back!

we had the most peaceful and relaxing time. The cottage was adorable, clean and had everything you needed. The beds are so comfortable we have never slept so good away from home. the views of the lake are gorgeous 😍 we will be back for sure. The host was amazing as well giving recommendations of whats in the area and a sweet welcome basket.

They were accommodating, flexible, and very gracious. They had an entire binder of information with details about where to find fans, towels, flashlights, how to work the shower, heat, grill, and about anything else you can think of. It also had emergency services, restaurants, places to have a good time, and good details about checkout expectations. Overall we were extremely happy with the property and our stay, and were honored by the personalization they did for us specifically as it was our Honeymoon and they wrote us a custom note by hand for when we arrived. Highly Recommended - Will Rent Again!

We enjoyed a great weekend getaway at this place. Denise was a great host who were helpful and always quick to respond. The house is cozy and clean, perfect size for two adults. It is conveniently located while being private. We kayaked on Paugus Bay and hiked Mt Major. Would definitely come back again.

Loved our stay at this peaceful lake. The house is perfect- cozy and has everything you need. We loved paddleboarding and the access to cute downtown North Conway is ideal!

Janet’s place in Standish was great and we could not have asked for a better host. Apart from the home itself, Janet was very friendly and responsive. She even proactively offered early check in / late check out, extremely unexpected and appreciated! Would absolutely recommend this BNB 10 times out of 10.

We had a great time at the Sun House. The lake was peaceful and we enjoyed use of the kayaks. Just what we needed to soak in nature. Walking trails right around the back and fire pits were nice for relaxing outside. The house included all needed amenities. Would love to visit again!

We had such an incredible stay! The first day was pretty rainy, but the house was so relaxing and comfortable that it didn’t matter - we enjoyed staying in and looking at the gorgeous view of the lake while doing jigsaw puzzles near the fire. When things did clear up, we had a great time playing in the yard snd kayaking. I was surprised at how quiet it was, especially during Memorial Day weekend. The beds were super comfy, kitchen was great, shower and tub were wonderful. Lisa left great instructions and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. And she was very kind in allowing us a late checkout, which was very helpful with three young kids. I can’t wait to visit again!

What an amazing hosts! When i check in they both came and visited and gave me a grand tour of things of the place. Showed where the lake was to kayak, recommended places to eat, and visited. Michael was quick to respond making sure i was doing great. I would totally go back and rent their place again! Thank you so much!

Came for the Fall colors; left in love with the place! Small but delightful. Cluttered in the most fantastical way. Nestled in paradise. Bonnie is so nice and friendly! Pay attention to the fact that the toilet is not attached to house. Short walk to privet and very clean!

Beautiful place. Lovely decorated. I would say that it is probably a little expensive for staying there in the winter/ fall time. Only one of us could sit on the couch at a time due to its location by the tv. The shower is really small and there is no room for toiletries in the bathroom at all. There is a rack but I had to keep all my bathroom stuff in bags the entire time because it is just lacking in space. I would think The price is worth it if you’re staying there in the summer and get to use the lake.

Stayed here for the second time with our family of five, including two toddlers and a baby. The house/property is the perfect setup for us! Everything is safe for kids and on one floor. There are things like pack-and-plays, kid dinnerware, kid toys/books, and sand toys provided. The sandy beach is close enough that our monitor reached from the baby’s room during nap time. Our oldest calls it “the little house” and has been talking about it since the last time we stayed here a year ago. It is the perfect little getaway! 🙂

Wonderful Stay in a Great Location! Zak and Emily’s house was exactly as described. It has a fully equipped kitchen, a grill, and a fire pit outside, making it perfect for relaxing evenings. The house is stocked with towels and other essentials, so we had everything we needed. There’s also a ping pong table, which was a lot of fun, and a great collection of movies for entertainment. Check-in was super easy, and the house is conveniently located across from Crystal Lake, offering a peaceful and scenic setting. Communication with Zak and Emily was excellent—they responded quickly and were very accommodating. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I would highly recommend staying here for a peaceful getaway. Thanks again, Zak and Emily!

This was the perfect location for my husband and in laws. It was so peaceful. Thank you for a beautiful place to vacation.

Third visit in three years for a weekend fishing getaway. Great location, beautiful property. Excellent hosts. Looking forward to a return visit.
