THE MANOR ON GOLDEN POND

Pretty but Room Description Misleading

We only stayed here one night. Took the Berkshire room, over the carriage house. No one below, so very private. Comfortable room, two-person jacuzzi. Somewhat disappointed with the description of the room saying that we would have a view of the mountains and lake. No lake in sight, just buildings and trees. And sitting on the deck, a very large chimney sits right in front of you. Nice grounds. My wife had brought her swim suit to swim in the advertised heated pool. It wasn't heated. We were there at an obvious low occupancy time. Seeing how the many buildings are laid out and their closeness, I wonder how peaceful it is at a busy time. The Manor is located just outside of the town and has two fairly busy streets on two sides (down the hill). But we had a pleasant stay. Compared to similar accommodations in New Hampshire, room costs are very high---we paid $414 (with tax) for one night.…

“Truly Wonderful!!”

Set in a spectacular setting with such awesome views and within travelling distance of many more jaw dropping sights this hotel is first class and a superb base for days out hiking or just a leisurely drive exploring. From the moment we stepped through the doors the staff were incredibly helpful, kind and made us so welcome. Our room was the “Oxford” one of the tastefully decorated annexed rooms set in the hotel grounds with private decking, circular jacuzzi, WiFi, turndown service and the obligatory amazing views. Dinner was taken in The Van Horn dining room and was such a treat. Our food was creative and genuinely delicious. My wife and I are British and The Three Cocks Pub reminded us of our trips to our very own Lake District in England - a cozy nook to enjoy a ‘nightcap’. The only downfall was that we had to make our trip before Fall Season and missed out on what the area is so famous for. We would love to return and experience that and then perhaps a very early winter blizzard would force us to have a couple of extra nights at The Manor “snowed in”, now I’m dreaming. A special thanks to owners Brian and Mary Ellen for such a wonderful couple of nights and making our stay so memorable. …

Nice stay at The Manor on golden Pond

I stayed in the Kent recently and it was a very nice stay. The Manor itself is a lovely old building and very welcoming, as are the staff. The breakfasts were excellent and the one dinner we had was delicious. The Kent was in a separate building and it was very quiet and secluded. My 13 year old son was with me and he wanted to hang out in the room and just read. The jacuzzi was huge which he got a kick out of. But it was the staff who made the difference - they were so friendly and accommodating.…

Great inn on Squam Lake

My wife and I decided to try the Manor as we had not been to lakes region in many years . It did not disappoint. Our room was ready early and delightful with small private deck, and king bed and jacuzzi tub . The innkeepers could not have been more helpful or nicer. Breakfast was included and choice of 8 hot entrees. Dinner at the inn was excellent as well . I especially liked the duck. We took two recommendations on hikes and a drive around the area . …

Definite "luxury" feel at this small historic manor.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Manor On Golden Pond. The building, grounds and location are charming. Every staff person we met was friendly, helpful and did their jobs well. Our request for a first floor room was accommodated even as we were upgraded to a beautiful room in the main Manor with a view of Squam Lake. Our room was spotless and the housekeeper was pleasant and accommodating in a quiet, professional manner. We especially appreciate the attention to fine detail. The bed linens and towels are high quality. Clearly written instructions on how to use everything are provided and placed near the items (fireplace, phone, shower, etc) to make it easy. In addition to fine dining breakfast and dinner experiences, beverages are available in the main entrance room all day and afternoon tea and snacks are served at 4pm in the library. The Manor is charming and comfortable with many fine pictures and pieces of furniture and art. Each guest room is decorated tastefully with a different color scheme and theme. The pool is large with plenty of lounge chairs and an area with tables and chairs, as well. The manor is located very close to Squam Lake, local attractions and many great outdoor activities. …
