Best Place Ever
There’s no word for this house except “WOW” My family and I come to New Hampshire every year from Boston and having a great place to stay is a must. But we have never stay in a place that is so beautiful, equipped with everything that you may need. We were stunned on how many stuff that was here. The house is really the “Happy Place” I’m planning on coming here for the summer if I need a spot open. Y’all, please don’t sleep on this house. The communication with the owner was 100% and the house was 100000% I’m so thankful to find this house for my family during Christmas break. The happy place house is well taken care of and I hope the owners continue to take care of this amazing place. Thank you for the communication and having us in your beautiful place. The amount of games and ways to make memories in this house is just wow. I’m in love and this is the best place to stay with friends, family or a group of people.

Great weekend away!
What a lovely home and such nice hosts. Paul and Lynn made themselves accessible and left us a nice little note with some tasty snacks as a warm welcome. The house was spotless and very comfortable. We even went for a canoe ride in the pond when the rain finally broke. Overall a very lovely getaway.

Heaven on Earth
What a great place to stay. Paul and Lynn were amazing hosts! They always answered the phone when I called with a question. The home is absolutely beautiful! The first thing that hits you when you open the door is how amazing it smells. The rooms were perfect, the grounds were great. We really couldn't have asked for anything more from our hosts!!! I highly recommend a stay at this home!!!

A hidden gem!
My family stayed here for long Labor Day weekend and could not have had a better stay. Beautiful home and location. Incredibly clean. The pictures do not do this house and property proper justice. The sunset from the porch was one of the most peaceful things I’ve experienced in awhile. Highly recommend this hidden gem. Owners were super helpful and kind!
