Welcome to Newfound Lake! Claire’s Cottage has been in our family for nearly 60 years, and we are the 3rd and 4th generations to call this place ours.

Enjoy the large open concept living space, with a big kitchen able to accommodate cooking family dinners. We provide a gas (propane) range, side-by-side refrigerator, coffee maker, blender, microwave, and toaster oven. The dining table seats 6, and there are 3 additional seats at the bar. Enjoy sitting in front of the working fireplace, where you can log in to any of your apps on our smart TV, watch DVDs, play board games, or enjoy reading one of our many books.

With 4 adjoining bedrooms, the cottage comfortably accommodates 6-8 people:
- Summer bedroom (2 twins) & Autumn bedroom (double/full)
- Spring bedroom (2 twins) & Winter bedroom (double/full)

There is a full bath. We provide all kitchen, bed, and bath linens, but you have to BYOBT (bring your own beach towels!).

Just across the street, not even a 5 minute walk away, is Newfound Lake. Shared among Claire’s Cottage and our neighbors, the beach provides 90' of sandy access to pristine Newfound Lake, where you can enjoy a shallow entry into the lake for lounging, floating, playing, or just enjoying the view! Pasquaney Bay also boasts the best sunsets on the lake.

You’re also welcome to bring your boat! Our parking area can accommodate a boat trailer, and while we do not have access to a mooring or dock, our guests can access the public boat launch at Wellington State Park, a short drive away.

During your stay, you can also enjoy hanging out in our private gated yard, BBQ'ing on the provided propane grill, or exploring all of the wonders that Newfound Lake and the larger Lakes Region have to offer.

Let us know if you have any other questions. We’d be happy to host you this summer!
