3 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Harrisville, New Hampshire

Enjoy a lovely, welcoming, and comfortable 3-bedroom home on the lake. If relaxing and unwinding in a sunny spot is your goal, this is the place for you. Swim, kayak, and canoe from the dock, June to mid-September. Ideal for hiking, biking, and walking down scenic dirt roads May to November. Wonderful for reading, photography, painting – or purely relaxing. Stay at this historic country Victorian house in a quintessential New England village. The village is charmingly centered around restored mill buildings and conserved lakes, streams, and greenspace.

A few dates are still available in early June and late August, as well as September through October—a beautiful time transitioning from summer to the blazing colors of fall. Enjoy Village views, as well as sunrises and sunsets, from the porches or small screened gazebo at water's edge—a perfect spot for yoga, a good book, writing, or meditation. Take a five-minute walk to the village store for morning coffee or a gourmet lunch, and visit the area’s music, art and craft studios, antique stores, and theater productions.

The house sleeps four comfortably. It is a great get-away for two. It has 2 baths, one on each floor, and 3 bedrooms upstairs, one with a queen bed. There is a double futon on the 1st floor. The open-concept kitchen is fully equipped and includes a spacious dining area overlooking the lake and the 19th century village of Harrisville. Two steps down is a restored book-lined "barn" room with wide-board pine floors, and a wood stove for chilly nights. Beyond is a screened porch with rockers, and a table and chairs for dining, that looks directly out onto the water. There is upgraded WiFi and a flat screen with Roku and HD cable for streaming, but no live TV.

The region offers beautiful and interesting hikes and walks and bike paths of varied lengths and challenges. Mt. Monadnock, just 20 minutes to the south, is among the most-hiked mountains in the world, and it was a favorite of Thoreau. Fish the local lakes and rivers. Canoe and kayak from the dock. Or sit on the porch in a rocking chair and watch a storm coming up the lake. Swimming can be great into early September.

Enjoy locally sourced meals at the Harrisville General Store seven days a week, or take a five-minute drive up to Aldworth Manor where you can enjoy delicious dinners on Public Nights and other special occasions.

September and October are lovely for enjoying quiet, warm days, and cool early autumn nights by the wood stove. Golden months on a Golden Pond. Take a drive to Walpole for apple picking mid-August to mid-October, and enjoy the Monadnock Art Tour with open studios throughout the region on October 12, 13 and 14.

The nearby towns of Peterborough and Keene, 20 minutes to the east and west, offer interesting shopping and a variety of restaurants. Antiquing is an attraction region wide. Public tennis courts and golf courses can be found in Peterborough and Keene. We are close to the popular wedding venues Cobb Hill, Aldworth Manor, and Mayfair Farm.

Harrisville itself is an iconic example of picturesque New England. Its textile mills and surrounding brick buildings were declared a National Historic Landmark in 1977. The textile tradition continues to this day. Knitters and weavers will love visiting Harrisville Designs—a premiere destination for textile classes and locally made yarns, looms, potholder weaving kits, and more.

The comfort of 19 Main Street, nestled in the quaint village of Harrisville, is a place to kick back, completely relax, celebrate, create, reunite with family or friends, and enjoy. Out of respect for neighbors, though, it is not a place for rowdy parties. Come and see!

Located in Harrisville, this vacation home is in a rural area and on the waterfront. Peterborough Town House and Historical Society of Cheshire County are local landmarks, and the area's natural beauty can be seen at Louis Cabot Preserve and Monadnock State Park. Friendly Farm and Hardings of Hancock are also worth visiting.
