We return to the Jackson area every October and have rented a lot of places via different booking sites. Heather was hands down the most helpful, responsive, and kind host we've experienced. From the booking process (figuring out how the room/bed configuration would work for our group of adults, teenagers, and 2 dogs), to the home/area information, and post-stay. Heather reached out to let us know we left a few items behind and was super helpful in coordinating a way to retrieve them. The home is cozy but larger than the photos look and with room to spread out, and exceptionally clean. Everything we needed kitchen-wise was available, all linens and paper goods well-stocked. The best part is the backyard and the brook behind. Our dogs and we loved exploring and enjoying the peaceful setting. The house is close to everything - hiking trails, x-country trails, restaurants, pubs, etc. This was one of our best Jackson stays as a family and we will definitely be back. Thank you, Heather!

Excellent place for families!

It was wonderful! We loved the house layout, the door at the top of the stairs, the property, and the back deck. My kids enjoyed making up new songs on the piano, I loved the aesthetic of the door handles, and we greatly appreciated how many extra kitchen items there were so we didn't have to wash dishes after every meal. All the extra linens were also appreciated though thankfully we didn't need to use them. Can't wait to come back again!

You cannot find a better location

My young daughter and I are in the area, supporting my son as he continues to hike the AT. Jackson, NH is the bomb. You want to stay in Jackson. Seriously. It's less peopley than North Conway, yet it's super easy to get to everything you want to do. Heather is a thoughtful property host. This house is stocked with everything you could possibly need - and her listing is very accurate. We loved hearing the brook out back. We are Floridians - so we especially loved being able to open the windows for a "Cool to Us" breeze, and picking raspberries in the garden. *Don't skip Jackson Falls around sunset! Just find a way to park your car and enjoy this natural wonder that's right in the neighborhood. We spotted deer and even a shiny black bear in the neighborhood. This property was perfect for us. *It's an easy and pretty drive to Crawford Notch for hiking and ice cream. Go do the Arethusa Falls and get ice cream at the Willey Center. Easy drive! The grocery store is super convenient. The Mexican restaurant - El Reparo - is kinda loud on Friday evening, but the food was delicious. So we were glad we waited. Definitely drive 15 minutes up 16 and check out Glen Ellis Falls. Super easy walk to see this beautiful thing. The Pinkham Notch Visitor Center is also cool. You'll see through hikers and get to shop/eat/hike.

Great Stay

We stayed here to attend a wedding at the Inn at Whitney's Farm. This was an ideal location, easily walkable to the ceremony and reception (even in dress shoes!). There was plenty of room for our whole family. 1+ bedrooms on the main level, and 2 bedrooms + a bunk room downstairs. We enjoyed the outside yard for games and the beautiful stream. It's very close to Jackson Falls and other great hikes/outdoor activities. The host's communication was outstanding, we hope to get back to visit again.

Jackson House

The stay here was good. The house is extremely clean and there is literally every single amenity you could need or want!! I’ve never stayed at a rental that provided guests with literally everything. There’s enough blankets and sheets and towels for an army! There were 5 adults, a dog, and a cat and we had plenty of room to be together and to have some quiet alone time. The outside is nice and theres a nice peaceful sound coming from the stream. Parking is convenient too. My only complaint is that it was pretty uncomfortable temperature wise. However, it was extremely hot and humid while we were there (90-100 degrees). There is an AC unit in the room on the first floor however we had to keep those doors closed due to the cat so the living room/kitchen area received no air from that. The downstairs was super cool during the day but when shutting the bedroom doors at night it became very damp and humid in those rooms. I believe we had extreme weather that is probably not that normal for NH so I don’t think the house is set up for that. I’d say as long as the temps don’t go over the low 80s it should be pretty comfortable. Mid 80s and above make plans for the day and don’t come back until early evening.

Wonderful experience, very nice place to stay

We enjoyed our stay, a nice get-away coming up from Philly. The house layout was great and well accommodated all of us (4 adults and 2 dogs) -- plenty room for larger groups too. House was well stocked as far as beddings, bath/towels, kitchen, etc. Owners arrival instructions were clear and helpful and enabled us to acclimate quickly and comfortably. Open layout kitchen/dining/living area was great social place for cooking, eating, reading, conversation, and games. The piano was a nice surprise too, added a nice element to our stay (several players in our party, well worn upright but fun to play all the same). Really enjoyed the backyard and brook, also took walks from the house on the roads, a nice 2-3 mile loop depending on which turns we took. We enjoyed the country store in Jackson, shopping and dining in North Conway, and multiple trips to the top of Mt Washington. We're grateful to have had such a wonderful experience!

Had a great stay. The place was super clean, with all the mountainside, winter getaway, charms and quirks we were looking for. Lots of space, great location in the hills of Jackson, right at the foot of Black Mountain, walkable to the ski area. Shovel Handle Pub down the street was also excellent! Would stay here again in a heartbeat, would like to try it in the Summer too.

Jackson stay

Convenient location, friendly and helpful owners are easy to communicate with. Main living/kitchen space is pretty tight for more than 3-4 adults but plenty of bedroom space. Lock on front door is a little tricky - easy to lock yourself out if not careful to check the lock before shutting the door.

About the host

Hosted by Heather Johnson

Host profile image
Our parents bought this land, designed and built this home in 1968-1969. We commuted to Jackson from Marblehead, MA almost every weekend during ski season and spent many summers here growing up. Our family moved here in 1977 full time and built on a large addition with extra bedrooms and deck. Our first time skiing was across the street at Black Mountain- at age 3. Actually 3 generations of family have grown up skiing at Black Mt. We learned to love swimming in the ice cold rivers and found some great swimming holes to visit. Now many years later, we call this our 2nd home/part-time rental. In 2011-2012 this house underwent a complete top-to-bottom rehab with all new paint, carpet, lighting, flooring, appliances, furniture and more. We've continuously updated and improved the home over the years. We ski, hike, walk, swim, eat out and see friends in and around the Jackson area. It's a place we love to come to for fun and relaxing and are sad when we have to leave.
We love hosting families who want to get outside and enjoy this beautiful area and want a clean, cozy home to retreat to after a big day out in the mountains.

Why they chose this property

3 words- LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION....
Where can you find a comfortable clean house in a great mountain location with a brook in the back yard, Black Mountain Ski Area views out the front yard, and walking distance to a great local restaurant called Shovel Handle Pub? This is the place!

What makes this property unique

If your 'to do' list is long, then you might find that the fresh country air is what you need to relax and rejuvenate. Kick back on the deck or watch the day go by from the Adirondack chairs and see how fun it is 'to do' nothing! Don't be surprised if you sleep like a log. The babbling brook will lull you to sleep.
