New England: Here’s Where To Enjoy Luxury Waterfront Cottages
Certain areas of New England have done a fantastic job of putting together three accommodation styles into one unique offering. We’re taking about Luxury waterfront cottages.
It starts with the location. Often, this means lakeside or even along the Atlantic coastline. The water is just steps away from your front door. This means a smaller, more compact style abode that, generally in a serene area. Here is where things get interesting. A typical cottage is filled with the basics that allow travelers to enjoy the simple things in life.
However, this spot in New England has taken the amenities of a cottage to a different level.
Lake Winnipesaukee Luxury Waterfront Cottages
808 Weirs Blvd in Laconia, New Hampshire, is where you will find a unique travel accommodation appropriately titled 808 Weirs.
What exactly does luxury mean here? “Experience unparalleled convenience with our innovative radiant heat mats beneath the walkway/stairs, ensuring a snow-free path to your unit all year round,” 808 Weirs states.
They also detail their rainwater harvesting system in an effort to lead sustainability efforts. In total, there are nine high-end cottages at 808 Weirs. Each of them has full kitchens, heating, cooling, high-speed internet, and laundry. In addition, “Amenities like dock access, community pool, and hot tub will make your stay more enjoyable,” 808 Weirs says.
Each spot on the property has direct access to Lake Winnipesaukee, overlooking the Paugus Bay area. Cottages 1 through 8 allow five guests to stay at each place in various bedroom layouts. The 9th cottage allows for larger parties and can accomidate 14 people. If that is still insufficient, there is a special add-on called Unit 10. This can only be booked if you have cottage nine and need more space. It holds an additional five people.
The 808 Weirs site also allows you to take a virtual photo tour of each cottage so you can see every pristine detail.
For example, cottage 5, which is closest to the water and six boat slips, contains a stunning high deck view of the water. It also has an enclosed hot tub, big windows, and swinging porch chairs.
If you feel like taking a day away from the lake, the property is also in close proximity to Weirs Beach, Fun Spot Arcade, the old-fashioned Winnipesaukee Railroad, and the Laconia Country Club for those interested in a few rounds of golf.
Rates can be as low as $359 per night, depending on when you arrive. Most cottages do have a two or three-night minimum over the summer.
