The Bays Cabin | Waterfront Family Getaway | White Mountains, NH

5 Bedroom Cabin in The Bays, Ossipee

Start your morning with an incredible sunrise over the water and end the day gathered around the firepit after an unforgettable day on the lake. This beautiful 4-bedroom waterfront home is designed for families to relax, reconnect, and enjoy classic lake life—with a private sandy beach, brand-new dock, shallow water, and everything you need for fun on the water.
Spend your days swimming, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, rowing, or simply relaxing by the shore. With 4 kids' kayaks, larger kayaks, a canoe, and a rowboat included, it's easy to get out and explore. Fish right from the dock for bass, pickerel, perch, and sunfish, or bring your own boat and launch nearby before docking it at the house. Pontoon rentals are also available nearby.

Fall is especially beautiful, with colorful foliage surrounding the bay and creating a spectacular backdrop from the water and property. For a memorable day trip, head to the Cog Railway and travel toward the summit of Mount Washington, or take the family to Story Land, about 40 minutes north.
And when you don't feel like cooking, Bobby Sue's Ice Cream is just five minutes away—an easy stop for a sweet treat after a day of lake adventures.
Whether you're swimming and boating in summer, enjoying brilliant fall foliage, or escaping to the lake for a peaceful spring getaway, this home makes it easy to slow down and spend meaningful time together. From sunrise coffee and afternoons on the water to sunset cruises and fireside s'mores, this is the kind of getaway your family will talk about long after you head home.

Summary: We had a great time! We will be back. We already booked the same week for next year. Leavitt Bay is just what we were looking for - small and reasonably quiet. The water was beautiful and the sandy bottom is great. However, the bay is shallow with only about 4ft of water out at the swim float. There are plenty of chairs provided for the fire pit that we also used on the beach. We brought our own kayaks, so we didn't use the boats provided. The house is rustic but the bathrooms seem updated. The house had a musty "camp" smell at first. But, once we aired out the house, it seemed fine. We had plenty of hot water for 6 showers in a row at the end of each day. There is however, only one (indoor) shower. There is an outdoor shower with hot water that we also used. There is a dyer, but no washing machine. With careful planning, it was not an issue. The wi-fi worked great. There is no TV on the property, but we bought a small smart TV which worked fine. There is one mini-split AC on the first floor and one in the upstairs bedroom. Both worked great to keep the house cool on hot days/nights.
