The property was clean and well stocked. We loved the peaceful location and enjoyed reading out on the deck. Deda was quick to respond to a couple of questions that he had. Definitely would stay here again!

Hi Mark,
So glad you had a nice time. You are certainly welcome back anytime.
It was cute and perfect. We spent alot of time just chilling on the deck just watching the loons and geese. You could watch turtles come near the dock too. Great place for a couple to stay!

So glad you had a nice time. You are welcome back anytime. Have a great rest of the summer.
I really enjoyed this place! I loved the turtles and the loons. Great views and beautiful sunsets. The only complaint I have is the windows were fairly dirty, and kept from having the best view of the water.

Hello Shannon,
Yes, the window over by the desk is not the cleanest. The window is old, and it is hard to reach to clean as it is over the water. When the water level drops during the summer, we try and give it a good cleaning.
So glad you had a nice stay otherwise.
My fiancé and I both loved our stay. We are still talking about how peaceful it was just sitting on the deck looking out at the water while listening to loons, frogs, and fish. We were lucky enough to be greeted by a bald eagle twice over our first two days. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
Property was exactly what we were looking for a perfect weekend getaway locations. The deck view over the pond is incredible and the cabin was neat and well maintained. Owners were very thorough throughout the the entire process and made sure any and all questions were answered promptly. We will be back!
The cottage was very clean and nicely decorated! The kitchen is well equipped and the bed is super comfortable. We enjoyed watching the loons and turtles while taking in the stunning view from the deck. Communication with Deda was very pleasant. I hope I can go back next year!

This property was full of charm and peacefulness. It was well stocked with all the things you often forget when traveling. The only thing I didnt see was a fire alarm.

Hi Tammy,
This just came in from VRBO. Sounds like you had a nice time. I am so glad.
Thanks for bringing the fire alarm issue to my attention. There are fire alarms. I was contacted by VRBO saying that the fire alarms was not functioning.
Thanks again for staying at the cottage. Be well,
Deda

I am so glad you had a great time! Thank you for the eggs and I hope to host you and your Dad again! Thanks for leaving the cottage in such great shape!
The cabin is cozy inside - but really the Deck is remarkable sitting on the deck is almost as if you have gone into a different world - loons, turtles, frogs on lilly pads
Perfect in every way
This short stay was for our mini-moon after getting married. We loved it. The cabin was the perfect size for us and I love sitting outside or on the bench seat overlooking the water. We saw the loons each day. It has great amenities, the bed was comfy and the whole process was easy from start to finish. Thank you!

Hi Kerry,
So glad you had a nice time. Thank you for the comment on the bed. I just updated the mattress!
Stay healthy and have a great rest of the summer. Thanks again for staying at the cottage,
Deda
The whole experience in this area of New Hampshire was just what my wife and I needed. The cabin and pond were so tranquil and peaceful with a ton of activities to do in the surrounding area. We went zip lining and hiked lost river gorge. Also got a fishing license and found shed right off the porch. Wonderful setting and everything was just as advertised. A perfect getaway for two
We checked in as scheduled but could not stay in the cottage. The smell of mold was overwhelming and, we felt, not good for our health.

Thank you for your response. This is a first notation about mold smell I have had in the years hosting this cottage. I went the next day to check, and there were no issues, no odor nor any visible mold. I know this guest mentioned he has respiratory problems, so perhaps a vacation on the water, especially during a wet spring, is not the best place to vacation. I am yet to receive any other complaints about mold. I have had many guests this year since Doug visited. I am sorry this didn't work out for Douglas and his guest, but there were no issues with the cottage. If there was, I would gladly have corrected it.
My wife and I choose to stay in this little piece of heaven for our son's wedding that was nearby in Vermont. The view is peaceful and on a clear night, all you see is the sky lit up with what looks like a zillion stars twinkling. The space is perfect for two people. This is a special and unique property. The owner was available and willing to help. Thank you, Deda!

Hi Pable,
So glad you had a nice time. And congratulations!
You are welcome back anytime. It is always great to share the cottage with guests who enjoy it, :-) Deda
This rental is so adorable. Perfect for a couple on a weekend getaway. The deck on the lake is so peaceful and quiet. Stunning views of Fall foliage. It rained most of our weekend but we were still able to use the deck since it’s covered thankfully. The interior is super cute and very clean. Lots of kitchen utensils/pans. Everything we needed to make meals. The fridge is a mini fridge- keep that in mind when packing. The outside does need some TLC (solar lights not working, lots of spider webs and bugs on screen) but definitely NOT a game changer. We really enjoyed our time and would love to come back again!
My husband & I found the cabin on French Pond to be so relaxing & tranquil. We did have a few days of rain, the week of our trip, but this did not dampen our stay as the deck offered coverage & the loon, and other birds, entertainment.
The cabin itself was very comfortable.
We had excellent Cell phone reception. No tv - but not really missed as we spent most of our waking hours on the deck to watch birds or read or just enjoy the beauty & sounds of pond life.
We took our time carrying our bags & boxes of items from the parking spot down to the cabin (we are both in our mid-60’s so are extra mindful of safety).
The shower has great water pressure but is rather small so a person of size might find it to be a tight squeeze.
Communication with Deda was easy as she responded to any inquiries I sent to her quickly.
We started talking about a return trip as soon as we left this lovely vacation spot.
