    everything seemed to be all in one corner.. TV was so small and cable kept messing up.. Old ac.. and even older fridge!

    OMG! I wish I had researched this "resort" a little bit better! They have lots of 5 star reviews on their website. Sorry it was FAR from 5 stars! We stayed there from 8/16 -8/20. When we arrived the first thing we were told was that there would be no house keeping. Ok no big deal. What they did not tell us was that NO ONE would be in the office most of the time!!! Room is wicked old and outdated. Mattresses were so lumpy and uncomfortable. All 4 of us agreed on that! The whole place is in desperate need of updating! I did notice that they were doing some repairs but let me tell you, they have a LONG way to go!! If you wanted to use the micro, you had to unplug either the fridge or the ac!! So I went to Dollar Tree and picked up a multi plug outlet. Room had this old musty, mildew type of smell which was made worse by the AC! Toilet was plugged.. went to the office 3 times..no one there. So again went to Dollar Tree and picked up a plunger. They had several gas grills all over the property for guests to use. Only 3 had propane tanks.. They had a fire pit for guests to use. However the pit was usually surrounded by adults drinking. I wanted to bring my grandson down to do smores, but did not want him around strangers that were drunk. Ants and spiders were every where.. The plus side was the gentleman who check us in was nice, and the older lady that was there on day 3 (office only seemed to be occupied when it was check in or out)was also nice. I would not recommend this place at all! I posted a review on their Face Book page and they removed it! LOL

    If you are visiting Lake Winnipesauke, then look no further for your choice in lodgings. It almost pains me to write a review for The Lazy E Motor Inn because I would love to keep this place a secret, but everyone should be able to have the kind of vacation we had. The Lazy E is a privately owned and family ran resort located in the Laconia area of NH. The Lazy E Motor Inn sports many different kinds of rooms and cottages that will fit a variety of needs and wants. They offer one bedroom cottages, motel rooms, suites, and even a four bedroom lake house with private lakefront property. The entire resort is situated on a gentle incline towards the water offering every room with a relaxing view of the lake whether it be from the deck, or your room. There are two cottages that are situated right on the waterfront sporting killer views. We stayed in a one bedroom cottage. Our cottage was meticulously cleaned, and exuded a rustic and cozy feeling. While it wasn't quite as updated as the many other types of rooms, it truly was a place that we could call home while we vacationed. Everything that you might need was available. In the central area, there was a futon, a pullout double bed, and a dining table with four chairs. The kitchenette was stocked with plates, silverware, glassware, pots, pans, two small refrigerators, a double burner stove, sink, microwave and coffee maker. All you need to do is show up with your food and you will be good to go. The bedroom had ample closet space, a dresser, and I believe a queen sized bed. All linens were provided by the management. Additionally, there were two TV's in the cottage, just in case you find yourself with a rainy day and nothing to do. Local cable TV access was provided. The property features so many amenities that you wouldn't expect to find at a place for this price. There is a centrally located fire pit that is lit nightly and can be enjoyed by all. We were encouraged to add logs onto it at our leisure. Right behind that was there hot tub... yes, a hot tub! While taking a soak, you can bask in the great view of the lake. It was truly relaxing. Down by the waters edge there is a swimming area, and a fishing area with plenty of dock space for everyone to enjoy it. There is a sand play area for the kids, and tables and chairs to have some dinner or drinks lakeside. Dock space is offered if you would like to pull up a small boat or jet ski while you stay. The Lazy E also offers boat rentals such as canoes, paddle boats, kayaks, and row boats. These are offered as complimentary if you stay a week or more. I think I counted 6+ propane BBQ grills that were scattered around the property so everyone could get their grill on. Night time is where this place truly gets going. The fire pit gets lit, and their bar area beckons you. While they don't serve liquor or beer, they provide ample space for you to enjoy your own. There are bar tables, a stand up bar, big screen TV, a horse shoe pit, tiki torches for the bugs, picnic tables, plenty of lighting, even blenders and cocktail making accessories. Everything is offered to you for your use with the request that you be respectful and clean up after yourself. The owner even installed a pull over tarp system that will provide protection from the rain, so you won't have to be stuck in your room. It really was awesome to be sitting right on the lake, with a baseball game on, while sipping on cocktails, enjoying a spectacular sunset. The acoustics of the bar area fires all the sound down to the lake. We weren't bothered by any noise coming from that area. Owners Les and Linda have made this place their livelihood and it shows. Local newspapers are dropped off to your door every morning. If you want to have a grillfest, they have that covered too. I believe they had two huge grills/smokers that they will let you use and offer some expert advice. They day before we got there, someone had used them to cook 25 pounds of Alaskan king crab legs. I was sorry I missed that. I got the feeling that many of the guests were repeat customers. This only shows that The Lazy E is doing something right. All in all, The Lazy E Motor Inn provided us with a stellar vacation experience. We can only attribute it to the many features that were offered and the thoughtfulness of the owners. A personal touch will go a long way and these guys were spot on. One of their mottos is to be as friendly as you want to be. This statement was not taken in jest. You can make some great friends or just keep to yourself. We enjoyed the company

    Great weather, cool raft, lake temp Amazing!!

    On a spur of the moment decision we took a drive with our 13 year old up to Lazy E. We stayed at one of their other locations at Weirs Beach but this was available so we had Unit #4. Not huge but very cute and fireplace in corner made room homey, along with A/C!!! Not many people there and we were in lake for almost 2 hours!!! Raft was neat and lake temp. Was Amazing!!! The owner lit a fire so that was nice, Ali g with hot tub open. Very enjoyable night And will be back!! IF in the offseason budget, my Only suggestion is to invest in better bed pillows and ones used are thin and tough to sleep on... TY for a nice stay!

    If you enjoy a dirty room this place is for you! We contacted the owner he would not return our call. Checked in October 10th 3:06 and left by 6:00 am. They say we stayed 6+hrs so we don't deserve our money back. We dropped our bags in the room and left to sightsee. We came back at night and I went to take a shower and water squirted all over the bathroom walls and mirror. I called the front desk and was told that no one was available until the following morning. Needless to say I guess I shouldn't have expected to take a shower there. We were informed that we waited until 9 o'clock at night to report a broken shower which I didn't know there were any schedules to take a shower. We were in NH Columbus Day so we had a hard time finding another place. So in closing we were charged $239 for the night and the pictures below tell it all ! The place was so gross we were not even sure if they changed the beds between guests. Covid clean it was NOT on top of it! To sum it up I would've felt cleaner sleeping in my car. Oh yeah good luck in the parking lot hopefully you have a smart car.

    Fantastic. Have stayed there twice. Once in the summer. Great swimming right at the lodge. And once in the fall. Most beautiful time of year. Quiet and Cozy. Bon fire's every night. Great people and Love the homey Cabins! I will absolutely return again. Thanks!

    Driveway at the lazy e motor inn. 2 people dumped their bikes in the 3 days I was there. Stay somewhere else if you have a bike!

    Very rustic, they remind me of the cabin I stayed in as a kid in the 1980s on the other side of the lake.

    Stayed here to visit Gunstock to ski in March…read more Although there are closer inns/lodges (to Gunstock) to stay at in Gilford, I really liked this location because there are more things in the area. Patrick's across the street has a great dinner. There's a laundromat and a wine store in that same mall. The suite we stayed in was older but very big with a full kitchen, living room and bedroom which is what I was looking for. The sofa bed was kind of bent out of shape but they have brand new plush mattress toppers. This is like staying in a condo, with a physical metal key. Elaine (I think that was her name) was so nice and I felt like I was visiting her house, she was so welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. Breakfast is grab and go; breakfast sandwiches, yogurt, fruit cups, instant oatmeal, cereal/milk, muffins, granola bars etc, all prepackaged food. Honestly it was great that they even offered that. There's a convenience store across the street that you can buy food if you have a kitchen if you want to make hot prepared food. The air conditioning/heating is thru wall units so it can be noisy going on and off all night so I just used earplugs.

    Stayed here for one night. Lobby and the check in area are neat and clean. Very cozy vibes,…read morefireplace roaring and what you'd expect for the area. The room we stayed in did not look like the pictures. Much older and the carpet looked like it needs to be replaced. Beds not comfortable and the pillows did not help either. Overall, fine for one night as we didn't spend much time here but probably would not return if staying in the area. I did appreciate how many towels they provided in the bathroom.

    I stayed here at the Opechee Inn (8 years ago) and raved then about my beautiful room! I don't know…read morewhat happened but the management seems to have gone downhill. And why is the hotel found on Yelp as Tranquility Springs because the spa is inside the Opechee Inn, but okay. So tonight, after several different visits to the restaurant and hotel gift shop (since Chaos and Kindness moved downtown--this is the only gift shop within walking distance to us), unfortunately, I am not thrilled with the hotel. Typically, while we wait for O Steaks restaurant to open, we sit quietly in the 'lodge room' or outside of the hotel entrance (under cover) for a few minutes. The restaurant opens at 4pm and since my husband had a stroke three years ago, we have to take our time walking. We have never had an issue, nor are there any signs saying "hotel guests only," so we rest in the lodge room (which is adjacent to the side door to the restaurant inside the hotel)--until today. We are reasonable people. And because I knew we got there even earlier than usual today, I specifically bought something at the gift shop ($15 Christmas gift for a family member), as a gesture of gratitude for being able to sit in the air conditioning in that EMPTY side room. So, here comes some hotel woman in just as we were getting ready to leave the room and enter O Steaks and asked if we were staying at the hotel. I replied no, that we're locals and were just waiting on the restaurant to open. THEN she informed us that they want to save the room for hotel guests! Ugh. Okay. Save the empty room! I was shocked and annoyed. We went to the restaurant immediately. But I will never go back into the Inn again. Believe it.

    I stayed at the Lake Opechee Inn and Spa for two nights in July 2022. I was there for an event at…read moreGunstock Mountain Resort and some of the closer places were already sold out. I found Lake Opechee on Expedia and went for it. The room was really big and nice. Two queen beds for me and me, a refrigerator, TV, seating area, desk, etc. On my first morning I had to be somewhere at 8am so I stopped at their free breakfast. I'm not sure what others are complaining about. There was coffee, tea, muffins, cereal, milk, yogurt, etc. It was fine. The employees I interacted with were all friendly. Cons would be the shower was a bit small, the water pressure was a little low, and my room was on the restaurant side of the building and there was some noise from that as the restaurant gets quite busy. One more thing I would add is the window coverings do not offer to blackout the morning light so plan on not having full darkness. All in all a very nice stay. Not cheap but nice!

Since we had a 4 year old & a newborn with us we opted to get a room to spare a retired aunt and nearby campers of potential crying. This place was lovely! The view alone is worth it, set on a hill overlooking Lake Winnie! There are cottages each with its own grill, porch and parking (separated buildings) and then there is the main building with rooms attached. Because we are such a last minute decision we were only able to snag a room in the main building. It was a lovely room with two beds, air conditioning and clean! The only downside is that there isn't enough "counter space" for things. The bathroom didn't have any it was just a mirrored medicine cabinet in the bathroom and in the room itself, just atop the dresser and a little space on the nightstand which already had things on it. Other than that, there were chairs outside the room to sit outside and enjoy (we did during a rains storm). Also, we were the first room and everyone has to walk by our room to get to theirs as there's just one entrance so while in the room we kept the curtains drawn but it was not bad. They redid the pool evidently and it's a warm saltwater pool and it was so nice! They have plenty of towels and pool toys there along with ability to Bluetooth music. There's a deep end and shallow end. We made some friends at the pool! There isn't much shade just a few umbrellas so you need to get there at the right time. The property is located next to one of the best ice cream spots Kellerhause and there's a trail to walk directly over - this can be dangerous! It's also extremely dog friendly - we met so many cute pups! But surprisingly it's still clean so there isn't any indication of dogs in the rooms and my husband is allergic and he was fine. Consider this place if you are looking to check out this area of NH - you won't regret it!
