Alton Cottage | 200 ft of Winnipesaukee Shore with Gorgeous Sunsets in Scenic Roberts Cove

2 Bedroom Cottage in Alton

Wake up to the call of the nearby loons, have breakfast on the deck, then relax on the dock as you take in the spectacular views, directly west along Roberts Cove to Rattlesnake Island in the distance. The 2 bedroom, 1 bath, 100-year-old waterfront ranch cottage is situated in a no wake zone at the eastern end of Roberts Cove. This is a great location for swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding, and allows easy access to explore the rest of the lake. The cottage sits on a level 0.3-acre lot, with a 3-slip dock and 190 feet of private waterfront, adjacent to a 35-foot public access sand beach. There are multiple sandy bottom swimming areas along the waterfront including next to the dock (entered by wooden steps from the dock), at the far edge of the property on the point (entered by rock steps) and at the beach. Try them all and choose your favorite! 1 dock slip is included in the rental so bring your boat, which you can launch from the family-owned marina at Roberts Cove Basin just 500 feet away. The other two are used by quiet, friendly family friends for access to the lake only. A favorite activity for many of our guests is watching the comings and goings from the marina.
This property has the feel of an old-time family summer camp and, as you hear the old wood screen door slam behind you and you walk the few steps to the dock to take in the view, it will seem as if you've stepped into an iconic New England summer vacation on the lake. However, despite the remote feel, this property is conveniently located between the bustling summer towns of Alton and Wolfeboro (filled with delicious restaurants and cute shops), with easy access by car or boat to both.
2 kayaks, a stand-up paddle board and lifejackets are included in the rental so you can spend your days on the lake and explore the cove. Additional stand-up paddle boards, kayaks, canoes, boats and jet skis can be rented in town for the day or the week. And if you're looking for the things to do off the lake, look no further then across the road where you can access a network of snowmobile trails that provide endless hiking and dog walking trails. Starting 50 feet from the front door you can get on the trails to Devil's Den and Merrymeeting Lake. If you prefer to explore on bikes, there are local bike paths and rail trails which wind through some of the most gorgeous parts of the state. And for more challenging hiking, the Belknap Mountains and White Mountains are just a short drive away.
Amenities include: Air conditioning, dehumidifier, small fans, smart TV with Roku connection, and high-speed wireless internet. Microwave, electric stove, refrigerator, kettle, toaster, electric drip coffee pot, and french press. Outdoor propane barbecue (propane is not included). Also included are 2 kayaks, 1 stand up paddle board, paddles, life jackets, books, yard games and telescope. One bedroom with queen bed, one bedroom with double bed, and couch with pull out memory foam queen bed in living room.
There is a welcome binder which includes useful information and rules for the cottage/property, history of the cottage and cove, and extensive area information including lists of local stores and restaurants, where to rent water sports equipment, information about hiking trails in the immediate area and further out, day trips, and extensive maps for local hiking and paddling.
The property is 3-season rustic cottage, not insulated, however heat is available from the wood stove and AC units.

Summary: Our family of 4 and our little dog enjoyed our week at the lake, despite less than ideal weather and not getting to take advantage of the lake and kayaks as much as we would have liked.
