Located only minutes from the lively Weirs Beach area, Meredith and the Gunstock ski area, was attentively built in 1939 by shipbuilder Byron Hedblom, who brought the Mount Washington cruise ship to Lake Winnipesaukee. Mr. Hedblom's fascination with boats and the sea was carried forward when three working lighthouses were placed on the property. The welcoming glow from the 15-foot-high lighthouses will guide you home each night along with the 60-foot-high mast used as a flagpole.Each of our five cozy guest rooms has a private bath and fireplace, and is named after a well-known New England lighthouse. The inn itself sits on five acres of grassy fields and forest on a colorful, tree-lined country road that provides quiet lodging one block from beautiful Winnipesaukee, the centerpiece for fun in central New Hampshire, and close to all of the Lakes Region activities.
We offer summer and winter specials for romantic getaways, skiers or lake cruises on Lake Winnipesaukee and Squam Lake. Or take advantage of our linger longer plan and use the inn as a central base for days trips to the White Mountains 40 minutes away or the seacoast and Maine, 75 minutes away. The entire inn also can be booked at a discounted rate, perfect for a gathering of friends or family, biking and hiking groups, wedding groups, scrapbookers, knitters and quilters. The Great Room is perfect for group socializing.
The sumptuous country breakfast features fresh-baked pastries and breads, a mini buffet of cold cereal, yogurt, fresh cut fruit and juice, coffee and tea, and an individual hot entree such as an egg souffle, baked french toast topped with sauteed fruit or ginger blueberry pancakes.
