Blazing Foliage and Beyond: Explore the Magic of Squam Lake Through Every Season

Ever dream of a lakeside escape that’s just as magical in winter’s hush as it is in summer’s glow? 


Welcome to Cottage Place on Squam Lake, a boutique micro-hotel and collection of private cabins that defy the seasonal calendar, inviting you in every month of the year.


Wake up to loons calling on the glassy lake in summer. Canoe at dawn, swim from a private sandy beach, and fire up the grill under clear skies.


Come fall, wander through colored leaves on hiking trails, enjoy lively fall festivals, apple picking, corn mazes and pumpkin patches or simply enjoy a crackling fire and serene sunset.


And when snow blankets the world, cozy up indoors with a fireplace, venture out to ski or ice fish, and return to a warm, welcoming space that feels just right.


At Cottage Place, all seasons are in season, no matter the date on the calendar. Ready when you are.
