Great property with awesome views. Was a little concerned with no A/C in the middle of summer however the cross airflow with windows open actually cooled down the house very well. Would highly recommend for a New Hampshire get away.

Spectacular views!

This was a Special Valentine’s getaway that we treated ourselves & our friends to. It couldn’t have been more perfect & accommodating for our needs. We were perfectly fine staying in all weekend by the cozy fire places, but we did venture out to Franconia Stables for a Valentine’s Sleigh ride. A gorgeous home that felt warm & inviting.

Tranquil getaway

It was a lovely airy and spacious place, surrounded by nature. We had a lovely time. Getting there was a little tricky, as were some of the appliances. But nothing that couldn't be resolved with Google.

Awesome house and location!!

This house was amazing, as you can tell from the listing. It was a fantastic experience staying there with our extended family and some little cousins. Really cool house layout and space, tons of activities indoor and out for our family and small kids. The property managers were fast and very helpful to reply to questions we had before and during our stay. Check in process was a breeze, and house was exactly as advertised in the listing. Overall was an incredible experience and I hope we can come back soon!!

Perfection

Words cannot describe how beautiful this house is. The open floor plan with large windows and mountain view was breath taking! In addition, this house is very well equipped! I brought a lot of cookware from home and needed none of it. Next time we stay, I will be sure to leave all that at home and bring my paddle board instead! Check in/out was super easy and the property owners kept us informed and up to date with any info we needed. I highly recommend this property, you won’t be disappointed!

Ant Infestation and Maintenance Issues

Our stay was negatively impacted by an ant infestation. The house, especially the third and fourth levels, was infested with large ants. Large ants were crawling on the beds and the people on the beds. The primary bath had 15 or more large ants at any given time. Apparently the ant traps were not doing the job. We loved the view from the primary bedroom and the great room. The great room furniture and all the appliances were excellent and the kitchen was well stocked. In the primary bedroom, the light bulbs over the desk need to be changed. The bath tub in the primary bathroom did not drain. The only reason that the water only got two inches deep is that the water drained out of the drain for the hot tub jet. The fan in the great room could not be turned off. The lock on the sliding door leading to the deck from the great room fell off when I tried to lock the door. Basically, maintenance gets 0 stars.

Perfect spot for amazing family trip!

This property provided the absolute perfect location and accommodations for our family trip. The home is beautiful and the most well appointed VRBO property we have ever stayed. The views were incredible and accessible from countless points in the home/on property. The home is centrally located between the Franconia Notch/Littleton area and Bretton Woods making our daily excursions accessible and beautiful to drive. The hosts were very responsive and accommodating as well.

Spectacular setting in a unique home

We stayed here as a base for skiing at Cannon and exploring the White mountains. The location is beautiful, high up on a ridge with stunning views of the presidential range. The house is beautiful and unique, with post-modern design throughout, as described by previous reviews and the listing. Very spacious and quiet. The property management company was highly professional with very smooth processes and effective digital tools. We particularly enjoyed the beautiful open living room, outdoor hot tub and suana, and quiet setting deep in the woods. As noted in a previous review, this house was built in the 60s/70s: the kitchen and common areas have been updated, but the bathrooms appear original (think retro chic - with everything in working order). As a plus, we were able to bring our dog who really enjoyed walking along the quiet, private road leading up to the house. This family of four (two 40 something's, a 12yr old and a 9yr old) would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful home - chefs dream! Our family enjoyed the spaciousness of the house. The kitchen layout made it perfect for the whole family to meal prep and then enjoy some cocktails watching the sunset. Loved the fire pit - relaxed and made s’mores. Good location for hiking and outdoor activities. Highly recommend!

50th Birthday Mountain Getaway

Covid derailed our grand plans for my wife's 50th birthday so we opted instead for a 2.5 hour drive north from Boston. And it was idyllic! Some notes on the property: 1. It's much older than in the photos - in fact, it was built in the 1960s! The kitchen is updated, and is stocked with all the basic cooking supplies (seasonings, olive oil, etc) as well as pots, pans, silverware). Note that none of the pans are teflon, which made frying eggs a little difficult. 2. I drove to the property in a Mini Cooper without any trouble, but the roads are steep and in some cases are dirt roads. You would definitely want 4WD in the winter, but in warm weather any car would be fine. 3. The indoor fire place is amazing--we cooked burgers over wood embers inside! 4. The views are incredible, and we really treasured sitting in the adirondack chairs just watching the sunlight on the mountains. 5. The sauna and hot tub are both in the master bath, and aren't really communal. The sauna is very small. We'd definitely come back--it's a unique property, with imaginative architecture set on a ridge with incredible views from everywhere in the house.

Perfect

This house was the perfect place for our family to gather together. The house’s location is truly spectacular—-the views simply cannot be beat! I The kitchen is also amazing—the appliances are all chef worthy. We also loved the 4 sided fireplace—so nice to sit near the fire while the snow gently fell outside:-) The location is at the top of a very steep hill so, as the listing noted, you definitely need 4-wheel drive in the winter. Looking forward to our next visit!
