90 minutes from Boston & just 5 miles from the summer fun of Lake Sunapee & Mount Sunapee, the 'Lodge' is a truly unique space with timeless and upscale accommodations that make this far more than your traditional rental destination! Located at the historic estate and summer residence of 2-term New Hampshire Governor Francis P. Murphy, we provide a rustic, yet romantic retreat.
A comfortable sectional sofa with chaise is parked in front of an entertainment center: LED television with surround sound CD/DVD/Stereo. As there is so much to do, see & enjoy in the Dartmouth-Sunapee Region, we don't provide cable (it's supposed to be a vacation after all!)
An oversized field-stone fireplace with twin leather pub chairs awaits the weary traveler or skier. Twin bookcases with Tiffany lamps are filled with books, games and distractions for when you just want to hang out.
When you're ready to cook, the kitchen at the Lodge has everything you need. This original and virtually unchanged turn of the century kitchen features original built-ins with modern electric stove and oven. Full-sized refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot and anything else you'll need. A farm style table sits beneath trendy Edison light bulbs for cards, games or meals.
After a day on the road, at the lake or on the slopes, you'll enjoy Governor Murphy's 'Locker Room', with a large walk-in 2-person shower.
Lastly, when you're ready to crash, the Master Bedroom features a large king size sleigh bed with 1000 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets, goose down comforter, and tons of pillows. There is a folding twin cot available by request. There is an air conditioner in the bedroom only for comfortable nighttime sleeping. There is also a white noise machine as well.
This is as close to a truly classic lodge as you'll find this side of the White Mountains with history that we've worked to make comfortable for anyone. We hope you'll love it as much as we do!
Guests have full access to the grounds. Your caretakers Ken & Travis are always available to answer questions, offer advice for activities or the best place to grab a bite.
