NOTICE TO ALL POTENTIAL RENTAL GUESTS AT POOLSIDE 5 ON KEARSARGE BROOK:

The Town of Conway, in which Poolside 5 is located, has recently voted to ban all short-term rentals (STRs) that are not in commercial zones. Therefore, we can only offer Poolside 5 for rentals of 31 consecutive days or longer. We are now accepting new reservations for stays of 31 days or longer at discounts over our normal weekly summer rate.

Other nearby towns, (such as Jackson) now have similar STR restrictions.

The good news is the large discount you'll recieve over our normal weekly rates.

WATERFRONT, FULLY CLIMATE-CONTROLLED AND RENOVATED, 1 BEDROOM, POOLSIDE 5 LUXURY CONDOMINIUM on Kearsarge Brook is now available for long term rentals of 31 consecutive days or longer for couples and singles (two guests maximum). Swim, float or fish in the long natural granite pool with footbridge and waterfall. WALK TO NORTH CONWAY AND CRANMORE YEAR-ROUND ADVENTURE MOUNTAIN RESORT! Besides having one of the FINEST ELEVATED WATERFRONT VIEWS IN THE MT. WASHINGTON VALLEY, Poolside 5 on Kearsarge Brook also was completely renovated with the goal to make it the FINEST SMALLER LUXURY CONDO IN THE ENTIRE VALLEY. Luxury amenities include:

This totally renovated, 800 sq. ft. waterfront condo now available for couples but please note that rentals are restricted to one party of two or less at a time. PROPERTY NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN UNDER 13 YEARS. Enjoy the dramatic views of the NATURAL POOL and brook. The NEW ZONED CENTRAL A/C, allows each room to have a separate, quiet, heat/cooling zone, and is a sure-fire way to beat the summer humidity that can settle in the mountains.

WATERFRONT POOLSIDE 5 is our personal home for the winter months, not just another rental condo, and is equipped accordingly with the highest quality luxury amenities we can afford. TRUE WATERFRONT HOMES ARE RARE IN THE MT. WASHINGTON VALLEY, and to have such a stunning, elevated view of the water as does Poolside 5 is even rarer. Come enjoy the pool views and fish for brookies from the foot bridge or just sit in your living room or out by the pool for hours gazing at the amazing reflections on the pool surface of the maple, birches and stately white pines surrounding the pool, while enjoying the bubbling waterfall sounds in the background. In the winter months, the falls get draped with ice formations, yet keeps gushing the brook waters across the lovely granite ledges.

The Poolside grounds were part of the historic Russel's Cottages resort, founded in 1863. The private, natural granite pool is formed by an historic, 1924 granite dam with a bubbling waterfall and romantic footbridge, home to brook trout all summer. The current building was built in the 1950s as a 6-unit condominium. The owners have since renovated and updated their units to a high standard. The added bonus' are the SUNRISES OVER THE POOL as well as the SUNSET MOUNTAIN VIEWS of the Moat Mountain range from the master bedroom windows.

The Poolside 5 master bedroom features LONG WATER VIEWS of the brook from your queen bed, separate SAMSUNG TV, HI-THREAD COUNT SHEETS, quilts and a SEPARATE A/C AND HEAT ZONE for quiet comfort all day and night. SEPARATE AC/HEAT ZONE as well as dramatic water views from the bedroom. Elegant living and dining area with comfy lounging furniture, a SOLID CHERRY DINING SET FOR 6 with pendant lights and, of course, the stunning views of the pool and stately pines through the glass walls.

Jenn and I searched for over ten years for just the right New Hampshire property for our retirement winters. We kept returning to Kearsarge Village for its central proximity to skiing and North Conway Village, as well as the elegant, historic setting. We stumbled on Poolside 5 in May of 2012 and were instantly enthralled by the unique and stunning views of the Pool. We bought the condo two days later, we were that certain we had found exactly what we wanted. Sure, the unit needed total renovation, but with the views it has, it was easily worth all the expense and trouble of bringing the condo up to our high standards of luxury. As HomeAway/VRBO owners since 2004, we have learned what it takes to ensure all our guests have all they need for the very best vacation experience (see our Nova Scotia property at HomeAway/VRBO listing #415233 if you like nice views).

Poolside 5 will be available for stays of 31 consecutive days or longer year-round. See "RATES" page for current rates, fees and discounts.

Sorry, but SMOKING IS NOT NOT PERMITTED AT ANY TIME. MATURE, QUIET DOGS ALLOWED with pet cleaning fee. Subletting is not permitted and overnight capacity is limited to two persons.

Contact us via HomeAway/VRBO for more information. See our profiles on this site for information about your hosts and, of course, call or email us anytime with questions or for more photos.

And thanks so much for viewing the Poolside 5 on Kearsarge Brook site.

Everything you need

I loved that Jenn and Terry offer such a comfortable place with not only everything you'll need for a comfortable visit, but clear instructions for operating everything from the key box to the sliding divider wall. We spent a lot of time in the condo as it rained every single day of our vacation, and were grateful to have somewhere so well appointed to sit waiting for the storms to break. Conveniently located and though my husband walked into town and onto Echo Lake I usually drove because of how fast drivers go on this road (you won't hear road noise from the condo). Thank you!!

Perfect for us

Unit was exactly as advertised- no unpleasant surprises. Our stay was over New Year's weekend, so we can't speak to the warm weather aspects- but the waterfall and pond made for a scenic view under ice. We were close enough to Cranmore that we walked home after skiing one night- close enough to the village to make the ride downtown only a couple of minutes long. We cooked a couple of meals in- the kitchen was very well equipped. Everything was clean, the unit is bright and well furnished. I do have one complaint- my wife now wants to remodel our bathroom to match. We rented the unit during an incredible cold snap- each day was at least 10 below at night and single numbers during the day. Given the cold, at first we had a bit of trouble figuring out the heat. One call to the owners and we were all set. They were extremely responsive and helpful- very comfortable to deal with. We would not hesitate to rent this property again- it must be beautiful in the summertime.

Absolutely wonderful

This is a must stop and stay if your traveling to the White Mountains. It is definitely a home away from home! The location is close to everything, the views and natural pool was so unbelievable and my kids enjoyed swimming in it and playing in the waterfall. The condo is completely updated with high end appliances and very nicely decorated. It is very clean and well kepted and we look forward to coming back!

Nicely updated and welcoming condo!

My wife and I and our two daughters and our dog stayed here for a long weekend. The condo is close to a lot of nearby amenities- minutes from downtown north conway, and ~ 10 minutes from Storyland. Cranmore Mountain is right nearby as well. The unit was clean and nicely updated, especially the bathroom. There is one bedroom, and then the second bedroom is actually the TV room with an retractable accordion divider wall separating it from the dining/sitting area. We had a pleasant experience with the owners and the rental process as well.

Enjoyable place to stay!

We stayed with our two children - ages 5 and 6. There was plenty of space for all of us. The separate sleeping area for the children was excellent! At night my husband and I would sit on the deck and enjoy the peaceful quiet. The bathroom is so nice - the options in the shower (2 different shower heads) make you feel spoiled! The owners are so welcoming and let you use their floating lounge chairs - which the kids thought fabulous! Having a full kitchen was also great. Staying here was easy and comfortable.

We couldn't have asked for more!

My wife, 7 yr old son and I stayed at this wonderful waterfront condo over the long, HOT, July 4 weekend. Everything was perfect! We travel a lot but rarely do we find such comfy accommodations with top quality amenities in a rental. The place was recently remodeled and looked brand new in every respect. Not a stain on the carpet nor a smudge on the wall. Top notch Kohler fixtures, professional grade appliances, beautiful granite countertops, cavernous multi-head shower; and even the small details reflect the owner's upscale taste like the Henckel knives,Weber grill, and fine antique wall hangings and furniture pieces. The brand new super quiet Mitsubishi HVAC units kept the place delightfully cool despite the 90 degree temps outside that week. My wife enjoyed her cup of coffee each morning out on the deck overlooking the stream reading to my son, while I took a few casts below and hooked several Brook trout even before breakfast. Inevitably the solitude would be broken as my son traded his book for his fishing rod and joined me with great success each day. (The small yellow spinners work best, but smash the barbs with pliers to ensure trouble free catch and release so others can enjoy too). The location was great -- just a 4-5 minute drive to North Conway to enjoy all that this fun town has to offer. In less than 5 minutes we were at Cranmore ski resort where our 7 yr old had the greatest time riding the hill tubes, mountain coasters, bungee swings, etc. The ski lift took us to the top of the mountain for a pleasant picnic lunch -- and cooler temps! One day we took the amazing ride up Mt Washington where we did a few day hikes from the summit parking lot. When we returned we took advantage of the owner's offer to use their floating lounge chairs and off we jumped from the base of the walking bridge into the Kearsarge creek natural pool that forms just outside the condo unit. The water was chilly but what a relief after hiking in near 90 degree temps all afternoon. We paddled in the rafts upstream where my son spent an hour or more catching frogs and tadpoles in the creek before it got dark; at which point we allowed the current to return us to the natural pool alongside the condo. Still so much we want to do in the area but simply ran out of time. We'll be back for sure! After all, we didn't even get to try out the new gas fireplace that looks so cozy tucked in the corner with a backdrop of stunning water views. Next time!

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer and Terry M. - VRBO Members since June 2004

Host profile image
We're from New Jersey and New York and have always wanted to live in the Kearsarge/North Conway area. We're avid hikers, skiers, sailors and lovers of the White Mountains. We are very experienced landlords and know what it takes to get a property in the fine condition demanded by the most particular rental guests. We have a wealth of knowledge of the Mt. Washington Valley and will be available by phone or email during your stay to answer any questions or give vacation advice.

Why they chose this property

Kearsarge has always been our favorite area in the Valley for its quiet, history, elegant homes and convenience to North Conway, Cranmore Mountain, Echo Lake, Cathedral Ledge, Diana's Baths and all the other amazing natural wonders of the Mt. Washington Valley. We absolutely love waterfront properties and our other home in Nova Scotia also has an incredible water view (VRBO # 415233). We had planned on buying a detached home in New Hampshire but when Pooside 5 came on the market, well, one look at the view and we were hooked. We knew that you can always update a building, and we certainly have, but you can't change the view. The five other owners in our small condo community all agree that we have one of the finest locations in the entire Mt. Washington Valley.

What makes this property unique

As stated in the Property Description, BEAUTIFUL WATERFRONT VIEWS ARE RARE IN THE MT. WASHINGTON VALLEY, and the sweeping elevated view of the deep clear granite pool from our unit is probably unique. Smaller condos (under 1,000 sq. ft) suitable for couples with numerous luxury upgrades are even rarer (possibly unique). Poolside 5 is a special opportunity for couples with means who want a fine property.

We completely upgraded Poolside 5 on Kearsarge Brook to be our personal home, and we have very high standards, as well as years of experience as landlords of a luxury properties. We're delighted that we can share the Poolside experience with rental quests while we are at our summer home over in Nova Scotia or cruising on our sailboat. We don't do all this work just for the income, for we really enjoy and treasure the comments we receive from our rental guests.
