This was a great place for a quick getaway on the water! The cabin is rustic but has everything you could need for a simple stay. The lake beach is lovely and the water sport offerings are wonderful! Nancy was really nice and responsive. We did have an issue with a circuit break, but she came and did a quick fix that night at 9 when we discovered the issue and they came to fully resolve the next day. Would highly recommend for an affordable stay with perfect lake views!

Location was nice right in front of the lake and we took advantage of the kayaks. Shower was very small and cottage a bit rustic but for the location and price was great.

A week of relaxation
This is our third time staying here and what a week we had. We swam, kayaked and played games of clue on the front porch. We love it here for the lake and the charm the cabing has, but most importantly the owners are amazing. They greet us when we arrive like old friends and are available for any need that may arise. If you are looking for a true new hampshire summer vacation experience.....look no further than the rainbow caibs on harvey lake

Just the relaxation we needed
We stayed on this property last year for a weekand and knew we had to come back and do a week. The view from our cabin was magical and or week was filled with swimming, fishing and so many great family memories. The owners are amazing even coming within minutes when our propane tank to the grill was empty. This will not be our last time coming here we are definitely going to make this a yearly tradition.

Family Vacation
We go here every year for at least one week. The owners are super nice and get back to us right away with any questions. We go kayaking and swimming every day and enjoy our time there. Can’t wait until next year!

Summer Vacation
We rented the orange cottage for a week. Cute cottage! Very relaxing. Enjoyed taking the kayak out on the lake. We had no problems when we were there. Met Nancy and Lee - very nice people. Definately worth the price for a week! Would rent again for a quiet getaway!
