About this property

Quiet, relaxing site on 200 acres in New Hampshire.

I built my home on family land that was originally settled by Daniel Upton in 1830. The original farm house exists in its original state (not modernized.) I built my house near the farmhouse in 1990 to resemble the original Upton farmhouse. It is post and beam construction, powered by off-grid solar. The addition (for guests) has two bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom. I have built 3 miles of trails for exploring the property and its cultural and natural history. For those interested there is also a tent platform (we provide the tent), or the option to stay in the historic Upton farmhouse.

Peaceful New Hampshire Stay

Relaxing historic guest house on a nice get-away-from-it-all property with a friendly host who thought of everything to make his guests comfortable. Josh gave us a 15-minute tour of the home to ensure we knew where everything was. We enjoyed our visit!

Incredible Property and Host!

Josh was great, and he curated his property and the home so well. We only wish we could have stayed longer and hiked more! The trails and the old farmhouse are a must do if you have a spare 45 minutes or more.

Quintessential Monadnock Region Getaway

So enjoyed everything from the books to the view to the house! Josh was a terrific host, and we loved sitting and drinking our coffee on the porch in the morning while watching the hummingbirds and pollinators and Star gazing at night. This off the grid home is full of history- take the time to visit with Josh to learn about his family, his passions, and the homestead. Perfection!

Beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing

The owner of the property, Joshua, was a wonderful host. It was tucked away surrounded by a forested area and the original owner's homestead. Our quarters were separate but attached to Josh's home that he and his brother built many years ago. There are trails to hike, a beaver pond to observe, and so much more to explore. Wished we had planned longer than an overnight. Overall, if you go you're in for a treat!

Nirvana in the woods

Our host Josh met us on our arrival and gave us a history of the home along with user hints for the property. A beautiful post and beam property with an eclectic array of books, tools along with local collections. The propert is well maintaining and tucked into the hills of NH, only 90 min from Boston. My only regret is we did not stay longer….but will revisit this location very soon.

Lovely, too short stay.

This is an absolutely charming place. It is not only off the beaten path, but off the grid. Solar power for electricity and fire wood back up for heat. Propane powers the hot water and soon will provide heat for guests. Our host Josh built the timber framed house himself and has many of the tools and books he used displayed around the place. Lots of hiking trails right on the property as well as a few charming animals. 5 Stars all round.

So Comfortable and quiet

The warmth of our host was there from the start, his careful and thoughtful attention to all details. It was immaculate and the softest bed linens. A very peaceful location. My friends enjoyed the hiking. Shower was hot and perfect. Kitchen was outfitted with all you need to create lovely meals. The house is a post and beam built by the host. I loved the the informational materials describing the history and the tools used to build this lovely home. Hope to return again soon.

Overnight Stay

Great little place for a night! The host was very nice and it was clear he cares a lot about the property, there were a lot of thoughtful and kind touches around the place. Well marked hiking trails on the property which he helped us navigate with a map. Nice to have a fridge and plenty of seating options, both inside and out!! Only complaint was the shower—he mentioned it took a long time for the water become hot, however despite it running for 5 minutes straight it still remained VERY cold! Not lukewarm, but straight cold. The water pressure was not great either—which meant about three tiny dribbles of cold water was the shower. That said, it was probably a fluke and had we asked it could have been fixed! Overall, a wonderful stay. Would recommend to others!

Cozy place to stay!

Although we only stayed one night, this place was perfect. The guest house has a great rustic atmosphere built by Josh the homeowner with all the amenities and is completely off grid. The land around the house is beautiful, quiet and peaceful. And Josh is the perfect host. Showed us around and explained everything to us. If we have the chance, we will definitely stay again. "Thank You!"

very nice and quiet location, the house is beautiful, equipped with all necessities, especially the kitchen. I enjoyed my brief stay, I would love to come back. I had a good, hot shower, it did not take long and the water was hot. Directions were perfect, easy to find.

Beautiful Home

The property was beautiful. The house was filled with cozy antique furniture and decor. The owner was very helpful in explaining everything and then left us to ourselves. I would definitely recommend this property to others and would stay there again.
