2 Bedroom Cottage in Barrington
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swains_Lake
This lakefront cottage is 2.3 miles from Rt.125 on Swains Lake in Barrington, NH, on our private dirt road into a wooded, 5-acre lot with a wide shore frontage. Our property's back woods extends uphill to Beauty Hill Road, total road frontage appox 400'. We emphasize Secluded, rare on this lake. The cottage porch is only 30 feet from the water line.
Swains Lake is over 550 acres with swimming, boating and bass fishing. Our cottage is located along the east side of a cove, facing more west to the sunsets, so waters are calmer than near the main lake bodies.
The cottage is quaint at 600 sq. ft. with an additional rough-cut wood full-front 260 sq. ft. screened porch overlooking the lake, providing a wonderful area for open-air dining and relaxing. The total lake frontage is close to 400' to extending to the south ending at the stone wall. Listen to the bull frogs during their June mating season and the loons on any summer night.
Enjoy the lakefront from morning to night in lawn chairs around the fire pit. Firewood may be for sale along Beauty Hill Road, Market Basket also sells wood. We obtain a town fire permit each year, however a guest permit is required. Permits can be found in a folder next to the microwave. Simply fill it out and bring it to the Barrington Fire Department. There is no charge.
As Fall approaches, the mornings become crisp and with less activity on the lake passing Labor Day. Slowly, the maple's leaves get ready to turn their Autumn colors, and throughout most of October they turn brilliant.
We have wonderful birds that make their home on the lake. You can see herons with their long legs flying overhead. Loons which have long dark necks, who have a distinctive call, also live on the lake. They the can swim under water a long way before reappearing. We also have exciting eagle sightings. Last year it was reported that three eagles now make their home here!
There are ducks and some geese on the lake. They are fun to watch but we ask that you don't feed them, feeding them may make them want to come onto the beach area and they can leave a mess behind.
The cottage is fully furnished with two bedrooms and one 3/4-bathroom with a sink and shower, no tub. The living room connects to the dining/kitchen area which has a refrigerator/freezer, electric stove/oven, and a microwave. The master bedroom has a queen-size bed, the other bedroom has sturdy twin-sized bunk beds, and the living room has a picture widow and a sofa that pulls out to a queen-sized sleeper. A brand new range in the kitchen has been installed as of July 2023.
Reservations are taken for May through end of October. We advise you to reserve available weeks as soon as possible up to a year in advance.
