Perfect Ski Vacation Spot

Our family of four had an amazing weeklong vacation at this well-appointed condo in the White Mountains of NH. The condo has seen some nice upgrades and is well equipped with everything that we needed for our trip, including a nice reading nook that both of our boys really enjoyed. We especially appreciated the close proximity to Waterville Valley and spent many relaxing evenings at the lovely condo after long days of skiing. The host was amazing before, during, and after our visit. Communication was perfect and Donna really went out of her way to make sure we had a great visit -- and we did. We highly recommend this condo, and the White Mountains, to any family.

Perfect Launching Off Point for the White Mountains

We had a terrific stay at the condo! The space has lots of light, plenty of fun games and puzzles, books to read, not to mention very comfortable beds. The owner was very helpful when we were planning the trip, and the house binder is full of good tips, which is another sign of how thoughtful she is. It really exceeded our expectations! We did numerous hikes, and had a great time checking out the White Mountain attractions. We are already planning to go back to this gem of a condo for each of the seasons. I HIGHLY recommend this for a family or some friends who want to take advantage of all that the White Mountains has to offer.

Perfect in every way

I can’t say enough wonderful things about our six week stay here. My daughter and I came to New Hampshire to escape the Texas summer, and this condo did not disappoint. Donna has thought of everything a family could possibly need to make a home away from home. The condo was immaculately clean, well-organized, adorably decorated, and super comfortable. Directions to locate the property and check in were provided well in advance of our arrival and helped everything to go smoothly. The condo is set in a beautiful spot, close to several great hiking trails and a river that we greatly enjoyed wading and playing in almost every day. It was nice to feel like we were in a peaceful and secluded area, but still have a few grocery stores and restaurants within 20 minutes drive. The location is an excellent home base for everything the White Mountains region has to offer. We look forward to returning in the future and highly recommend Donna’s property to anyone looking to visit the area.

Condo in quiet location

Nicely furnished condo. Do not recommend for elderly as it has steep narrow staircases both leading into and going to second floor. Both bathrooms are on the second floor with the bedrooms. We had no cell reception in this and the area surrounding but were able to use Wi-Fi calling while at the condo. Condo backs up to woods which was peaceful but deck joins next condo; however no one was there while we were. Books, cards, and games available. Plenty of seating in living room which has a large tv with some streaming services. Apartment sized washer and dryer located on second floor with two bedrooms (1 King & 1 queen).

Wonderful stay in the White Mountains

We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 week stay in the White Mountains. The townhouse was tastefully, and comfortably, decorated and was well equipped with everything needed. The location is peaceful and private. The host was quick to respond to any questions we may have had during booking and during our stay. We enjoyed several nearby hiking experiences and the townhouse is located a short distance from major highways enabling quick access for traveling to other areas. Put this gem at the top of your list, you will not be disappointed.
