Winter Wonderland

We had a wonderful winter getaway. The granite fireplace is more than enough reason to book. The pup loved it as well.

Vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin it is secluded but close to lots of attractions which is what we were looking for and the sound of the babbling brook was so relaxing and we enjoyed the fire pit and had an endless supply of wood. The only thing is only one window has a screen the others are either missing or ripped but since it cooled down at night it wasn’t a problem.Its a great place to stay if you want to be secluded and enjoy an older cabin.

Great Get away

Our stay was FANTISTIC, me and my 4 buddies had a great time. We were on motorcycles and the location was great for that. Just down the road from the Kanc, not to far to Conway. Easy to get to where we wanted to ride. I would HIGHLY recommend this cabin to anyone wanting a quiet place to send time in the Conway area. If still availlable next year me and my friends will be back.

Beautiful Getaway!!

When we arrived the hosts were such wonderful people and they explained everything about the cabin and even gave us some history. I was so glad to see they were very nice people. The cabin was fully stocked (except food of course) and had everything we needed and more. The atmosphere was relaxing and I didn't want to leave. The brook right outside the cabin made the visit even more relaxing. The fireplace inside was very beautiful and romantic. It was very quiet. We wanted a getaway that was nature oriented and we got it!! I would recommend this place to all my friends and family!!

Wonderful, cozy house by babbling brook

Our stay at the house by a babbling brook was wonderful! The owners were extremely nice when we met them for the key and a tour of their property. We were 4 adults and a dog staying in this cozy house in august. It was very peaceful being in the woods and listening to the water run in the brook that was behind the house. Our dog loved that he had plenty of room to run and play fetch and that there was a crystal clear brook he could swim and wade in. After going on many hikes and exploring in near by towns, we really enjoyed coming back to the house to relax by the fire place. There was also a little fire pit outside with a picnic table. The house had everything we needed. There were extra quilts incase it got cool at night, extra towels, plenty of firewood, coffee and kerig maker. We were mainly in NH for outdoor adventure such as hiking, canoeing, and fishing. There are plenty of places in close driving distance from the house. Their was also many stores in close driving distance to shop on a rainy day. We definitely plan on renting here again. Thank you to Paul and Barbara (the owners) for renting to us.

Good spot for the weekend!

This house is exactly as pictured. It is rustic and quaint, a step or 2 up from camping. The location is lovely with the bubbling brook. There is a "pool" in the brook right behind the house for cooling off in. There are tubes that you can use to bump/float down the brook to a second sandy area. It is quiet and down a dirt road off the main street. There is an unused quarry road next to the property which I hiked up with the dog and we even saw a bear at the top! The location is central with easy to access Conway/N. Conway and the amenities there. There is NO WIFI (as listed in the description) and VERY LITTLE SERVICE for phones/internet. There is a small TV with a few channels if you need that. The kitchen is clean and stocked with anything needed. There is a double bed and a twin over double bunk bed in one bedroom and a double bed in the other bedroom-the double bed mattress is over a smaller boxspring which was fine for one sleeper but may be harder for 2. The bathroom was clean but dark in the shower. There is a nice screened porch stocked with firewood for the fireplace or outside firepit. There are a few folding chairs as well. My only real complaint is that most of the screens in the house were broken which made it impossible to open any windows for some breeze. We stayed on a very hot weekend and there is no AC. There are fans provided however which helped. Bring bugspray in the summer as you are in the woods! Have fun :)

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy
The whole experience was highly disappointing for the cost of the stay. I should have trusted my gut over the glowing reviews. The photos are accurate in that the cabin is dated and in need of maintenance and updates throughout. It was tidy, organized, and generally uncluttered. However, it didn’t feel clean: dirt on the floors we could see and feel, there were cobwebs, dust, and visible water stains, and the porch and yard were unkempt.The furnishings, beds and bedding, lighting, and other fixtures are very old and should be replaced. The toilet felt like it might break, and the door lock didn’t feel fully secure. Guests are expected to take their trash with them, which is highly inconvenient for anyone traveling a long distance or arriving by air.The brook was pleasant, but overall, this property did not provide an experience that matched its cost. Significant improvements are needed before it could be considered a good value. I wouldn’t recommend this property until meaningful updates and maintenance are completed.

The house is an older cabin but also was not well cleaned when we stayed (dirt on the floors and lots of spider webs).The owner says the water is safe, but I would suggest bringing your own drinking water as the water has an odor and the water in the toilet was cloudy.Despite the listing information, there is NO WiFi and NO Laundry.

Disappointing

Cabin was not ready upon arrival, took days to get ahold of owner, communication was unprofessional, cabin was not fully cleaned even after having to wait. Cleaner (Pam) was very apologetic and kind, however, communication between her and owner was confusing and mixed. Cabin is located in a nice secluded area.

Rustic Getaway

Overall we enjoyed our stay here, but would not return. The cabin is extremely rustic, no wifi or cell phone signal, but great heating system. Host was very kind and had the caretaker meet us to let us in and show us around. The brook behind the cabin was a major highlight! Location is close to a lot of hiking and skiing. The bedding was stained in multiple places, when I looked for additional bedding to replace, it was also stained. The cabin also had a very strange odor, as if someone had been smoking in it and sprayed a bunch of chemicals to cover it up. Host asked us to bring our own drinking water, but later discovered the tap was completely safe and that some folks said it tasted metallic. No trash removal on site, must take all waste with you.

Close to everything, but you are remote and private enough to enjoy the river and quiet location. Owner is very nice. Plenty of room for a family.

Cabin getaway

Host was communicative. The listing is accurate in that the cabin has a retro feel. We loved making a fire in the fireplace. The brook behind the house is beautiful to listen to. It is conveniently located where you are close to town but secluded enough to feel like you’re in the woods.

peaceful and private

We were very pleased with the cabin, There were a few coments we made to help the next people comming in . we wish we had axcess to one of the grills, we found beaters but no mixer,also a set of bowls would help. The beds were very comfortable, we loved the sound of the brook. Very relaxing.

Nice cabin for a getaway

This is a nice cozy cabin. It’s what you need, none of the fancy nonsense. If you’re looking for a WiFi enhanced experience with a big screen tv you’re probably not looking for a cabin in the woods in New Hampshire anyways are you?

Great winter vacation

We stayed at this cozy cabin for the Christmas and New Year holidays. The property was located far from the busy highways in a secluded area with no neighbors, the only thing we could hear was the serene river flowing alongside the cabin. The host made sure we had everything we needed, and the driveway was properly cleared of snow for us. There was an abundance of firewood to use to keep us warm and the fireplace was very well built to prevent smoke from entering the home. There were a few cable channels that kept us entertained, but we wished we brought some dvds to put in the player when we came back from town. North Conway area is great for antique shopping and skiing. It's has an abundance of mountain and sporting stores. There is a small beginner mountain 20 minutes nearby called King Pine. We would definitely would want to come back in the future.
