Check in and out was wonderful! Parking was tight and rooms small but clean and comfortable. Mattresses are very soft. Wonderful view of the lake and nice relaxing beach area. Fire pits on the beach I wish had a bit more firewood available but enjoyed sitting out there at night. Wonderful stay.

I Would Stay Here Again
The resort was clean, the rooms were cleaned daily, and the staff were extremely nice. If had to offer words of improvement/advice, it would be to upgrade the rooms with keyless entry access, firmer mattresses, and a larger TV. Otherwise, I would visit this resort again.

Attention all Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion concert goers - this is the perfect place to stay! Close to the venue and clean. Exactly as described. Plenty of parking across the street if you have a vehicle that is a little large for the spaces in directly in front of the rooms. The view is beautiful and we highly recommend two nights in order to take advantage of the property and lake itself. Will definitely book again for the next concert.

There’s a building across the street, strongly recommend not booking rooms in it, even though I got misled into thinking it was the waterfront rooms with balcony. They were kind enough to change our rooms to the ones on the beach, which is what I had originally booked. Nice clean property. Decent parking. Breakfast is not included, but they offer 15% discount at the restaurant - Blue Bistro. It was very good. Totally worth it. Enjoyed our stay. I would recommend.

Nice staff, but room smelled bad.
Meh. Dated room. Not dirty, but smelled musty. Bed springs were shot. Needed a place to stay near a concert venue and for that, it was convenient. Would look for a nicer place next time.

Best accommodations on Lake Winnipesaukee!
Our stay at the NASWA was fantastic. 3 nights/4 days in a beachfront room with a balcony in the Aquavista. Great location on Lake Winni. We took a complimentary boat ride with Captain David, offered to guests of the NASWA. We had a great breakfast at the Blue Bistro, then dinner and drinks right on the beach. The staff and all the servers were super friendly. The room was cute and clean with plenty of closet/dresser drawer space, but you sink right into the beds (a bit too soft). The parking spaces are tight, best for smaller vehicles or compact cars. Definitely planning to return next year.

Naswa
The Naswa beach was filled with sand fleas. And the two of us had our ankles bitten and was itchy for a few days.

We were disappointed by the ‘beach’ access. The property was clean and the staff were very nice. The restaurant was very good.
The pictures did not give a very accurate representation of the actual property.
I would place this property in the motel category rather than resort.

Excellent resort. Upper restaurant big no.
The service at the resort was very good and friendly. Beach was clean, kayak and paddleboard were accessible easily, the complimentary boat tour of the lake is very interesting. You can walk easily to Wiers beach and the boardwalk.
However, mattress were too soft (you will roll in the middle of it). The restaurant inside was nice but the hostess was arrogant and told us that we didn't deserved to be served in a reasonnable time since we didn't have a réservation (took 2h before we got served). We also wittnessed her being mean to an old lady. To sum up, you either get a good service or a very bad one. Roll the dice.
The restaurant by the beach is perfect.
