Wonderful Weekend

This was the perfect location for a long weekend getaway for 5 adults and 5 kids. The kids loved having their own space down in the basement and there was plenty of space for the grownups as well. We had a fabulous time!

New Hampshire spring vacation.

This property was perfect for our needs. We wanted someplace centrally located in New Hampshire. From there, we were able to take day trips to visit sites both north and south in the state. The kitchen and baths were well stocked and a washer and dryer were available for laundry. The local grocery had an amazing variety of goods to cover our meal needs. We were very comfortable in this house in the woods.

Beautiful, peaceful getaway

My family spent the weekend to celebrate my mom's birthday. This was the perfect place for us. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The house is clean and beautiful. It's close to the highway and located on a well maintained road. The community center is minutes away by car. We hope to return soon!

Wonderful place near the mountains

We were looking for a place near the White Mountains and also with things for our little ones to do. We found Chris and Mary's and our stay couldn't have been better! They were super responsive and helpful. The place was fantastic, the perfect spot to get away and relax. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed mornings and meals on the quiet deck. And the community it was in allowed us to swim with the kids every day, both indoors and outdoors. We had such a wonderful trip and hope to stay there again soon.

Great mountain getaway!

We have stayed in several rentals over the years and this home is easily one of the best! Extremely clean rental from top to bottom. The updates are really nice, the kitchen has everything you need, the owners are great to work with and easy to reach. The kids loved the basement space and the main level had plenty of space for all of us. The overall condition of this home is excellent! I'd give it 6-stars if I could, we'll be back!

It is a great property for a family stay. Very comfortable, clean, in an attractive neighborhood. Definitely gives off a mountain vibe. The downstairs has a wonderful space for kids to play away from the adults if needed.

The cabin had everything you may need - fans, heaters, paper products, even an Alexa, and stocked with everything you would need for cooking in the kitchen. It was in a safe and beautiful area.The cabin was very clean and the beds were comfortable.Also, the shower had a lot of hot water. We used the fire pit to make s’mores. Which was fun for the kids.. There is a nearby store for any grocery needs . Another plus was the nearby community center where you could go swimming in either their indoor or outdoor pool. My kids loved fishing in the pond at the community center. Loved our stay!

Great house. Met all our needs.

This house was big enough for all of us, was stocked with everything you need. You don’t need to bring anything but your clothes. We’re a family of 4 adults and 5 kids. Everyone had their own space. Community center is 5 mins away by car. Kids loved the pool. Basement area was great for the kids. Fire pit was a hit! Thank you for allowing us in your home.

Thornton Retreat

The property was very peaceful, and a wonderful place for the kids to play. That includes the bean bag toss, games including puzzles, the “ring” game, and they really enjoyed the downstairs level.The house itself is very cozy and clean, we appreciated the deck and outside areas as well.We all had a great time at the Waterville Community Center too. Thank you! Highly recommend!

Nice weekend getaway

We went up for a winter fun/ski weekend. The property had everything we needed. It was about 20 minutes from everything we were doing (skiing, ice castles, tubing) which was fine for us. We didn’t end up using the pool/hot tub close by but it was nice to have the option. The downstairs was great for all the kids. They loved having their own space. The house is well kept and it was nice that linens were provided. The owners were very thorough with their communication. We would definitely stay here again!

Cozy and clean

My family of 10 stayed here during Christmas time. In our group were 4 adults, teens and young kids. There is something for everyone! The kids loved downstairs for playing games and the adults were able to enjoy upstairs. The community center has a pool, it’s not that warm but the kids had fun. There is also a jacuzzi and a small arcade room. Waterville resort is very close by. You can ski, snowboard, go tubing, and more. Great location! Very clean and cozy! 10/10
