Lakefront family-friendly 4+ bedroom house on Little Squam | House in Ashland

Welcome to Twin Pines, an updated-yet-rustic New England experience!
Twin Pines is a lakefront property with 100 feet of private shoreline. There is a sandy beach (great for kids!) and the lake bottom is also sand. We have a private dock that was rebuilt in 2023 and a storage shed for water-related equipment and toys. Twin Pines has plenty of extras to enhance your fun, including a canoe, kayaks (rigid and inflatable), stand-up paddleboards (SUPs), a floating mat, inner tubes, and beach toys. Little Squam is also terrific for water-skiing and tubing! Boat rentals are very popular in the summer months, so be sure to reserve well in advance. (Details about local boat rental options are provided upon booking.)
Please note: there are about 50 steps down to the beach, making accessibility difficult for people with mobility issues.
ALSO NOTE: both sides of our dock are rented to local boat owners from May to October. Please do not touch the boats that are tied up there. We rent the dock to trusted individuals. They may be going to/from their boats while you are at Twin Pines, but they will not interfere with your stay. One dock renter has our permission to park his truck near our garage. Please contact us if you have any questions/concerns.
Arguably the best place to hang out at Twin Pines is on the deck overlooking the lake. A loveseat and chairs are arranged around a cocktail table, and the outdoor dining table can comfortably fit eight people.
Indoors, Twin Pines has two "great rooms" for lounging, reading, eating, playing games and enjoying each other's company. The upstairs great room is focused around a large wood-burning fireplace, with a comfortable seating area and two dining tables that provide ample space for meals, games & puzzles.​
The downstairs great room includes a beautiful (but non-functioning) fireplace, two futon couches, two bean bag chairs for extra seating, and a television.
There are four bedrooms at Twin Pines:
* Upstairs primary bedroom #1 (with deck access): King bed and ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower
* Upstairs primary bedroom #2 (with deck access): King Bed and ensuite bathroom with tub/shower combination
* Downstairs bedroom #3: Queen bed
* Downstairs bedroom #4: Two full-size beds
​For additional sleeping space, the two futon couches in the downstairs great room convert into full-size beds. Also, one of the quirks at Twin Pines is an extra twin bed affectionately known as the "kitchen bed". Located in the secondary kitchen downstairs (which is generally used as storage space), the comfy kitchen bed is useful for folding laundry or for extra guests.
​The updated kitchen on the main floor at Twin Pines includes a refrigerator & freezer, gas stove & oven, microwave, toaster oven, dishwasher, coffee maker, Ninja blender and standing mixer. The kitchen is stocked with all of the pots, pans and utensils you need to create gourmet meals (or feel free to enjoy carryout from a local restaurant)! There is also a gas grill for your use.
A full-size washer and dryer can be found downstairs just beyond the extra kitchen. Detergent, stain remover and dryer sheets are provided. Through the laundry area is a mud room where you'll find beach towels, personal flotation devices (i.e life jackets), wetsuits and a tool bench. After a fun day in the lake, we encourage you to rinse off using the hose outside the mud room and ditch your wet bathing suit on the clothesline before heading off to a warm shower!
On rainy days -- or when you're finished playing in the lake -- you can enjoy a game of pong pong in the upstairs (unfinished) level of the garage. It isn't fancy, but it's fun!
We strive to make your stay at Twin Pines as comfortable and convenient as possible. In addition to the various amenities described on this website, we also provide portable fans, room-darkening shades, a toddler air mattress, a twin air mattress, children's books & toys, and board games & puzzles.
We are continually updating the décor at Twin Pines. Stay tuned for flooring upgrades, improved lighting, new window treatments, shiplap and more!
Other than asking that you treat our home with kindness and consideration, we have the following few rules:
* Absolutely no smoking
* No pets (sorry!)
* Maximum 10 guests (with some exceptions)
* All boating laws must be followed (details are provided to all renters)
Please keep in mind that vacationing on a lake in NH is an outdoorsy experience. We keep the house very clean, but you can expect to see cobwebs in outdoor corners and in the boat shed. Also, please understand that Twin Pines is our home during part of the year, not just a rental property. Although we put away most of our personal belongings when the house is rented, please expect to see "evidence" of us throughout the house (e.g photos, items stored on upper closet shelves, etc.).
Thank you for visiting our home. We hope you enjoy the magic of Squam Lake as much as we do.
