Rather than write an essay about my experience, I am going to say the negative reviews are correct. We rented a few cottages for two nights and are approximately 35-40 years of age, some with children. The owner Sheila should not be in customer service. I was amazed at how inappropriate and uncomfortable she makes her guests. From the moment... More

The cottages were very nicely decorated and comfortable but the layout was a bit odd the downstairs bed was in the living room behind the sofa. I felt it would have been a better choice to use the upstairs as a bedroom and a sofa bed downstairs. Property is very small and cozy you have to share your porch with... More

Just got home from a 3 relaxing night stay at Sunapee Harbor Cottages. Sheila was very accommodating and pleasant. She thinks of everything to help the guests plan their stay. The cottages are welcoming, cozy, comfortable, and clean. The area is quaint with lots to do. We went to the beach, took a boat cruise around the lake, kayaked, walked,... More

Our family of 5 stayed for a weekend recently and absolutely loved it. I liked it so much I wanted to write a nice review. It wasn't until just now that I saw what others had to say. It bothers me that a few people had such negative comments but I suppose everyone is entitled to an opinion. We found... More

We have been fortunate to have discovered h cottages 10 yrs ago. We stay a couple times each yr. We have 3 children, who also have brought cousins and friends. My mom attends every stay as well. Sheila accomodates my moms needs and is always there to assist. She entertains my children, who absolutely adore her, as do I. Any... More

I'm sitting outside the cottage w my fiancee, reading these reviews and getting a good laugh out of them. Sheila is wacky; I'll give you that. I knew this from the first 15 minutes we spoke over the phone on my way up to the cottage. She actually called us the morning were driving up and had a lot of... More

I would completely ignore the negative reviews about these cottages. We traveled from NJ and Sheila contacted us while we were in route just to make sure she would be there to greet us. Upon arrival she was most welcoming and gave us a choice between two cottages. The cottage was impeccably clean, which is very important to us. We... More

I hesitate to disagree, but having stayed at this place a few times, I don't think lovely is appropriate. First of all, there is no housekeeping service of any kind. If you stay for a week, you use the same thin, wet towels every day. And no one cleans the bathroom. If you have many kids, you'll end up doing... More

I have to admit I was concerned after reading the reviews here, but we had a lovely stay. I would agree with the concerns below that the owner is obsessed with her rule book and at times I did feel a bit watched by the owner. That said, we had a wonderful vacation here. The pass to the local beach... More

My extended family booked all 6 cottages for a wedding weekend in mid-August. We were concerned about the issues raised here, but decided that forewarned is forearmed, and that turned out to be true. Yes, the Innkeeper did strike me as obsessive about rules, but no doubt that is one reason that the place is so clean and pleasant! And... More
