Disliked: Cleanliness

A musty odor greeted us as we walked in. May have been related to laundry area in entry, but seemed to be noticeable through house. Owner informed about it on check in; said she would investigate after our stay. Also, discovered sheet pan of roasted peppers in oven after we preheated it the first time. House is convenient to Franconia and Cannon, but listing mentioned ski in/ski out, which it is not. Also, the property is clearly the home of a landscaping/snow plowing company with trucks and equipment sharing the driveway. It wasn’t an issue for us, but might be for some.

Great property with some cleanliness issues

Great, spacious house with a large grassy yard in a nice suburban neighborhood within a 10 minute walk to the coffee shop and grocery store. The house is stocked with clean linens and cupboards full of dishes and glasses. Kate was easy to communicate with and was gracious enough to give us a late check-out due to a miscommunication. However, we were somewhat disappointed by some cleanliness issues in the house: mouse droppings on the kitchen counter, broken glass under the kitchen radiator and numerous flies in the kitchen.

Wedding Weekend in Franconia

The house is in a great location in Franconia and is within walking distance from downtown. The house was spotless, and all necessities for bedding and baths were provided. It is a very comfortable place for a family to gather!

Great house, great location.

We loved the location of the house in Franconia - quiet street, easily bikeable to town, trails, river and the park. Quick highway access. Nice backyard. House had everything we needed. Nice, clean updated farmhouse! Bigger than pictures show. Would love to stay again.

Why they chose this property

There couldn't be a better location than the Fox Hill House! So easy to find, right off 93 with no bumpy backroads while being totally private. Recreation and businesses in the backyard and neighborhood. Newly renovated and everything in the house in brand new. Big house with lots of room, great for a couple of families!
