This was our second straight year staying at this location for a 2-night/3-day golf trip and once again it didn’t disappoint.The house was clean and has everything you need for a short term stay. The location is quiet and still close enough to all our favorite North Conway restaurants. Glenn once again was extremely quick to respond to a couple of random questions. This spot is a great value and I have no doubts we will be looking to stay here again next September.

House was amazing and had everything we needed. Main street and shops were about 15 minutes away for all the stuff you forget to bring. The house had plenty of beds for everyone and space for hanging out to plan your day trips. I would recommend the saco river tubing and relaxing on the lazy river. The few times I reached out to the host, replies were prompt. Make sure to hang out on the deck throughout the day to get to know the birds that visit. This place is quiet and can bring peace and serenity if that is what you and your group are looking for. Would stay again!

This is my second summer stay here! I love that we can all gather together. I wish that the ac was installed before we arrived, it was extremely warm in the living area. I will definitely request that this is done if we are lucky enough to stay next year! Seating in living room could use some updating they’re pretty uncomfortable. I would also recommend bringing your own pillows if possible. The home is exactly as described, rustic and feels very homey. The host Glen is so helpful and responds quickly to any questions. I would highly recommend this home and look forward to returning next year.

Thank you so much for staying with us again, and thank you for the objective, accurate review. The house is older and outdated and we are making investments in piecemeal to make it more comfortable. You review is spot on and is very helpful painting a picture of the space. We’d love to have you back again!

On the plus side, the owners were very good to work with. The house was clean. What is perplexing is all the 10/10 reviews. This property is well beyond "rustic/older". The only updates are the leather couches and the flat screen TVs. Nothing has been touched since it was built in 1970 (date per Zillow). The window air conditioners are so loud it was like a train coming through, making it difficult to sleep. Very disappointed.

Great quiet location 5 minutes from the North Conway village. We used Glenn’s place as a base for hiking which worked out great and we returned in the evening for dinner and to watch baseball playoff games. Everyone was happy with the accomodations including the dog.
