What a great place for a winter week's stay! Quiet and peaceful, with great upstairs and downstairs spaces for everyone. Walking trails right outside your door, warm and cozy inside. Would come again!

This is our second stay patient, beautiful area, quiet, convenient to some local businesses, foliage beautiful .. a little rainy for a few days, but can’t control that overall very nice.
We have stayed here in 2021 and the house was just as beautiful as before. The house was clean and the check in process was easy. The hot tub is an amazing bouns.tub id tub

Boardgames and hiking
This was an excellent spot. Me and my friends came up to do some hiking and play boardgames. The screened in porch was lovely. It is a really great spot in a beautiful location.

Girls weekend away
Beautiful Cabin. Plenty of room. Modern kitchen is perfect. Hot Tub is wonderful
The house and property was much nicer then we anticipated. We travel with two (legitimate) service dogs and the property was perfect for them to get their exercise and just run & play. We will definitely return there.

This location has a beautiful cabin that was very clean and well maintained. We selected it for its remote site and the open area where we could view the stars and the milky way. It is close to Franconia, N Woodstock, and Lincoln as well as the Kancamagus which leads to Conway. We did a lot of hiking and early autumn scenic viewing.
Beautiful house with great furnishings, comfortable beds, a well supplied kitchen, and plenty of outdoor amenities. Outdoor hot tub was an absolute hit with our group!
Location is remote and quiet which is great for peaceful mornings and evenings, but it's still close to Woodstock/Lincoln for daytime activities.
Be prepared to disconnect - there is wifi available but it is slow and spotty, especially with 4 users accessing at once.
Great property, loved how the hot tub was ready to go, hot and clean, plenty of privacy. Picked this house because it was close to the Franconia hike i planned to do. If i had to nit pick.. ceiling fan blades were dusty in the bedroom and the mattress wasnt too comfortable. Kitchen supplies were bare bones had sugar and maple syrup but no cooking oil, the one item i forgot! had to drive to price chopper and pick up butter that looked like a bunny so all good!
It was a great home, private location, fire pit, grill, everything that was to be expected. Nice little trail walk to the creek. I would come back.
The management company needs to clean a bit better in general; e.g., on under furniture, dust, upkeep porch, and some manicuring of the landscape is needed. The bottom of the fire pit is rotted out and owner should get a new one.

Perfect little getaway
My husband, dog and I loved our stay here. My husband is a chef and from past experiences with rentals, we usually have issues with the kitchen not being stocked fully with knives, pots, pans, etc. But we had everything we needed here to cook a couple of nice meals for ourselves. The woods abutting the property had a path to a creek and it was honestly just so breathtaking. I bet it’s even better during peak season (early fall and winter!) thanks again!

Disliked: Communication
FANTASTIC! ….But…
This cabin rental was perfect for my friends and family who stayed w me at different times. Clean, very functional with enough room to allow separation between members. Fireplace and hot tub were super to have. Very quiet location and with access to mountains and cool little villages/shops nearby. A few notes for renters-owner/managers. Make sure people know up front you have to supply your own firewood. Cooking stove is glass top style and a couple of the skillets provided have rounded(not flat) bottoms and will not heat up
We stayed here from Thursday night through Sunday morning. The place was clean, everything was good and I have no complaints from that aspect of our stay. However, there was mold.. and a lot of it. One entire wall, the wall in the front against the 4 seasons has an overgrowth of mold that is all over the paneling. By night 2 half of us couldn’t breath from inhaling the mold all weekend and we had to keep windows open to let in fresh air.
Once that is addressed, this place is a 10/10 stay.

Cozy home
Extremely clean, cozy home, beds super comfortable, plenty of sheets, towels, hot tub worked well, small living room and kitchen, but it was a double oven that helped tremendously. Table can hold 4 people and large island to cook on with 3 bar stools, some kitchen items need updating. Beautiful basement with large screen tv and custom bar. You can fit three couples in bedrooms. And the futon downstairs came in handy. Washer dryer was a plus and looked brand new. All plumbing worked well. Unfortunately the weather was against us and we didn’t enjoy the outdoor screened in porch, outdoor table and fire pit option. We used the hot tub in the rain anyway and it made the trip. Will definitely stay there again.

Quaint Weekend Getaway
My 5 friends and I stayed here for a long weekend and it was lovely. I read previous reviews and had an idea of what potential problems there may be but we didn't encounter much. The hot tub was great and quite spacious. The wifi was a little slow at times but overall we were all able to connect and use it. You can't expect perfection in such a remote area, better to enjoy the outdoors anyway. The kitchen table is a bit small for the number of guests who can stay there but space is limited in the cabin in general. They have barstools at the counter for additional dining and have nice living spaces both upstairs and down. The loft was not accessible but that didn't bother us. Beds could be more comfortable but they are comparable to most other rentals I've stayed in, fine for a weekend. No problems with the alarm as others had mentioned in their reviews.

House was nice…. Room for improvement
I think the house was nice but there’s definitely some things I would improve…here are some friendly suggestions…
First, the positives. Comfy beds, Meyers hand soap (a nice touch) and Dove for the shower! Thoughtful. Beautiful wood bar downstairs, so a cool space and the heat worked great!
Some ideas for improvement….
-hire new cleaners (dirty floors/rugs and a dirty sock and comb left from previous guests)
-Trash can needed in main bathroom
-Tune the piano so musician guests can enjoy! This was a top reason we chose this place- but the piano was so out of tune it was more of a decoration.
-Provide simple instructions for hot tub. When we arrived the pump/filter wasn’t running and it seemed murky and wasn’t hot. We figured out how to work but a set of Instructions would have helped!
-add a small shovel to the ash can since you’ve asked guests to clean up after themselves. Also, would be lovely to leave a bundle of wood for guests to kickoff their stay!
- the driveway was either super icy( providing ice melt would be key!) or super muddy… I suppose some gravel could help that- really inconvenient to get in and out of your vehicles in a muddy puddle
Overall, the stay was fine. But for the price I was annoyed by the things listed above. Didn’t ruin my trip but on my mind.
