Our beautiful Mendums Pond water level has been lowered significantly for the 2025 season for maintenance on the dam. The good news is that the fishing has reported to be fantastic likely due to large bass being concentrated in less water with a reduced food supply. The water quality remains good for swimming, however, it is a significant walk over the lake bed to the lower shoreline. Although much of the shoreline is sandy and rocky there are areas of mud above and below the water line. Water shoes are recommended. Caution should be taken for those that decide to swim and life jackets should be worn especially for anyone that is not a strong swimmer. Guests must bring their own life jackets and swim at their own risk. Children must be supervised at all times.
Pictures have been added to the listing to show the affects of the lower water. As a result we have deeply reduced our nightly rates for this season. Pictures of the lake full remain on the listing for guests considering visiting during the 2026 season.
All of the fun, local attractions remain for our guest enjoyment including golf, hiking, berry picking, shopping, winery, oval track and drag car racing, the White Mountains, New Hampshire seacoast, great local seafood and so much more. Normal, lake-full photo's have been saved for guests interested in visiting next season when Mendums Pond is full again.
Savor your favorite beverages and snacks on the large deck while enjoying gorgeous sunsets. Enjoy a movie on the living room flatscreen TV or retire with a good book to the upstairs bedroom or loft accessible via spiral staircase or the downstairs bedroom. Sleeping spaces combine to offer a full-sized bob-o-pedic foam mattress and 4 twin beds (2 Sleepy's foam mattresses and 2 regular).
If work cannot be avoided, utilize the desk/office area and wireless internet to connect to the workplace.
