Squam Lake Inn

A local gem we found and enjoyed! Quaint and quiet with delicious food and wonderful hospitality! Clean and welcoming! From breakfast to a late night snack all was nicely presented and tasty! Dinner to dessert with the specialty cocktails made this a memorable experience! I will go back!

Friendly staff, clean but small room. We were not able to fill the tub for a bath, as the drain stopper was broken:( The widow was drafty, had to put a towel in the window to Keep out the cold air. Delicious coffee early morning, breakfast was outstanding!

This was our first visit to Squam Lake Inn in Holderness, NH. My husband & I stayed for 2 nights (a Saturday & Sunday) in the White Oak Room & paid $638.82. CHECK-IN: Super simple. Self check-in instructions were provided via text. • Amenities: Ceiling fan, coffee maker, hair dryer, one luggage rack & three hangers. No microwave or mini fridge. There's a mini fridge in the main house, but you have to go downstairs, outside & back upstairs to get to it. Does not keep drinks cold; only cool. Convenient for guests staying in the main house, but very inconvenient for guests in the White Oak room. • Bath: Plenty of hot water & medium pressure. • Bed: Very comfortable bed & pillows • Cell service/WiFi: No T-Mobile service, but WiFi works very well. • Cleanliness: Immaculate • Decor: Lovely, but four chairs were unnecessary. • Heating/cooling: Room temp stayed comfortable, but one of the floor radiators made a clanking noise the entire visit, even after turning the temp down to 68°. • Housekeeping: Offered but not needed • Sound: As expected at a B&B. In addition to the clanking noise, you can hear doors slamming shut, people occasionally talking & cars driving by. • TV: Average size. We liked the streaming capabilities. • View: Road in front of the B&B • Other: - Lighting: A flood light [lighting up the B&B's sign] faces directly into one of the bedroom windows. The shade covering it doesn't do much for those of us used to sleeping in a dark room. Thankfully, it automatically shuts off at approximately 11:30 PM. The B&B adjusted the shut-off time to a bit earlier during our second night. - I'd recommend adding a full-length mirror to the room. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Polite & professional. We liked the texting option. There's a chance you won't interact with the owners at all. FOOD: • Breakfast: Excellent. You have a choice of the day's special or eggs. Food is hot & delicious; however, portions are a bit small, so we were hungry shortly after. The weekend server is an absolute delight! • Dinner @ Inn Kitchen + Bar: Made a 7:00 PM reservation. Arrived 10 minutes early but was told by the hostess we were assigned a specific table (vs first available), & the guests were still eating. We waited 25 minutes to be seated. We ordered shrimp 'n grits, four scallops, no appetizers or drinks (only water) & paid $70.53 + $21 tip. Ouch. LOCATION/PARKING: • Location: Lovely little town. However, amenities are limited. If you're looking for convenience, the Lincoln area seems to offer a bit more. • Parking: Complimentary; however, the parking lot can get full with restaurant patrons & B&B guests, so there were several cars parked on the side of the road when we arrived on Saturday. Would I recommend/stay again? Yes, but not in the White Oak room unless a mini fridge is added.

We recently had an important family gathering at the Squam Lake Inn. Molly and her crew did everything imaginable to make it lovely and unforgettable! The food, the setting and the staff were amazing. We are so grateful to them for going the extra mile for us.

A group of dear old friends stayed here for a reunion and it was lovely! Adorable, well appointed, clean rooms - comfortable beds. Food was amazing - breakfast was delicious and dinner was the best!! The home made cookies every afternoon were delicious and just added to the overall comfort of the Inn. Tay, heart and soul of the Inn, did everything from making beds to serving us wine and food! She is the very best!! Molly and Brenden - our hosts - were present and engaged and their love and dedication to their Inn was evident in everything at the Inn- from the gardens, to guest rooms to food to decorations! We will be back!

Every detail is wonderful. Gardens, fresh flowers, amenities and cookies every afternoon! But it is the staff who made our visit so wonderful. Tay greeted us cheerfully throughout the day and made us an outstanding breakfast every morning. Our server at dinner was Taylor and she let us take a breather after dinner and brought us our dessert later on the porch. Very relaxed vibe.
