Our families had an amazing time at the condo in South Peak. This unit is incredible from the decorations to the amenities provided. The bedrooms were so beautiful and very comfortable. All the comforts of home!! Our children enjoyed their "own condo" on the first floor! The bunk bed bedroom was a huge hit and they spent time there playing and telling stories. The guys loved the plasma TV's and the extremely comfortable leather sofa. The kitchen is fabulous. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner and all 11 of us sat at the large table and ate together with the kids next to us at the bar! We were down the street from the Polar Express and went on that as well. At night we roasted marshmellows and made smores by the campfire just steps from the condo. We swam in the pool at the spa and went for a long walk in the complex. We were a 30 minute ride from Santa's Village and enjoyed that as well. The kids watched movies and ate popcorn from the large popcorn bowls provided by the owners. They even toyed with playing the playstation but then changed their minds! The owners thought of everything and we are definitely coming back for another stay! Thank you so so much for everything! It was also great speaking with the owners on the telephone on a few occasions! This was our best stay and we loved it! Elisa

Owner response:We are so happy you enjoyed yourselves. It is very important to us that when you are away from home you still have all the amenities of home. We welcome you back and hope to have some fun new surprises for you when you return. Enjoy the rest of your holiday season Best Regards Alan & Ann

Wonderful Family Vacation Home

Our family of 14 (6 children & 6 grandchildren) plus my husband and I spent a week at this townhome in August and the home could not have been lovelier. Everything was wonderful. There was plenty of room for everyone to move about and find comfortable locations - whether for socializing with one another (awesome farmhouse table in dining area & sitting area in living room), sleeping (everyone had their own bed to sleep in & the linens and mattresses were very comfy), reading, coffee and quiet time (I found the small deck off the main floor to be perfectly tucked away from it all yet still close enough to know what was going on) and for those of us who enjoy playing pool, the pool table was a big hit! The furniture was nice quality and there was plenty of closet space for us to stow our belongings. We had many chefs in the kitchen and it nicely accommodated all of us. The grandkids enjoyed the assortment of television sets to watch their programs on and enjoyed the gaming system in the downstairs playroom. We had quick access to the babbling Pemi River and that was a huge draw for the kids every day .... plenty of sand, rocks and small rapids and whirlpools for them to enjoy. Not to mention campfires and jacuzzi soakings!! The kids brought their mountain bikes along and every day was spent enjoying this very lovely mountain setting. This home was truly conducive to our family getting together and enjoying one another in this remarkably warm and cozy home. We all agreed that it was one of the nicest vacations as a family ever!! Thank you, Alan and Ann, for the extraordinary effort that you put into this home to make it as comfortable and inviting as it is!

Loonfest 2011

Another great stay @ our favorite Loon Condo! This unit is immaculate & decorated so beautifully that we are booking for Winter of 2012, our third year. It is the perfect escape for our fast paced friends from the Boston area! We love this yearly gathering because even when the weather doesn't cooperate, as it did not this year with lots of rain on our week-end, there is still plenty to do around the area and in the condo! It is roomy enough for the entire group without feeling crowded. The condo look like it was taken right out a pottery barn catalog! The kitchen & bathrooms are nicely stocked with everything you could possibly need. I would recommended this condo for any kind of group gathering!

Ski Vacation

Guest: Sue (Eagleville, PA)
Date of Stay: 01/05/11 Review Submitted: 01/14/11

Our group (7 adults and 6 young adults) has been skiing together in Vermont and N.H for many years and this is one of the best house we have rented so far. The furnishings were excellent and the house was very clean. The bus service outside the front door was wonderful. Following a call, the drivers arrived quickly and willingly drove you to any stop you wanted. We were able to easily come back to the house for lunch.The young adults enjoyed each evening using the pool table and the outdoor hot tub. The kitchen was well equipped. The house is convenient to downtown. It was a short drive for extra groceries and to go to the pizza shop. Thanks for a wonderful few days.

Excellent stay for our 40th Wedding Anniversary.

Guest: Paul W. Mortimer (Warwick, RI)
Date of Stay: 08/07/09 Review Submitted: 09/04/10

Comments from the Mortimer Family: This property is REMARKABLE! Our family chose to celebrate my parent’s 40th Anniversary here in Lincoln and we would have required at least 4 rooms or 2 suites. Our expectations were well exceeded as we had full run of this well appointed two-floor condo. The kitchen is well stocked, including condiments, varieties of tea, sport drink flavor pouches, a wine key and a wine butler (which came in handy when the brittle cork crumbled). The regulation Pool table enabled my father and I to shoot several games together; something we haven’t done in almost a decade! Each detail was meticulously considered as spices, bathroom comforts, linens and area attractions (including menus) were readily available. My wife and I were very comfortable in the plush king bed which was appointed with a weighty comforter. The owners were readily available, as a voicemail was promptly returned and guidance was offered (basement door deadbolt wouldn’t lock, but the technique was simple. After the call, even my 6 year old nephew could lock the door). The association with the Loom Mountain was very convenient. The ability to use the pool, spa, etc for no additional fee was highly enjoyable, and only a short drive from the condo.

A little piece of heaven!

This place was wonderful! We had three generations stay here and everyone was happy. Fun things to do for all ages! The place was immaculately kept with all the comforts of home. We had 4 young children in our group (ages 2 to 5 years) and they loved "their" bunk room. They each had their own bed and there was plenty of room. My daughter and her husband took the lower level with the children and Grandpa and grandma were upstairs. Plenty of room for all and all bedrooms were beautiful with very comfy beds. We hope to retun next year. We have been renting a different place each year, but I think we have found our little place in heaven! The Turpack Family, WV

Wonderful Property

Guest: D & K & K (Naperville, IL)
Date of Stay: 07/09/10 Review Submitted: 07/29/10

We had a great stay only wished it could have been longer. We had 10 adults, 2 of which were young adults and slept in the bunk room with the 5 children. There was more than enough room for everyone. All the furnishings, beds and bedding were very nice not your usual rental stuff. The pool table was a nice addition the guys especially loved it. The downstairs family room was great for the kids to play video games in. The only thing we had trouble with was finding the Spa but eventually we managed. That too was very nice the kids enjoyed swimming outside and inside. We would definately recommend and would love to go back sometime.

FANTASTIC!

Our extended family spent 7/22 - 7/26/10 at this lovely home. It is relaxing, spacious, wonderfully decorated, fully equipped and very clean. We were a group that ranged in age from 6 months to 90 years old and every one of us had a great time. We enjoyed the small beach (a little difficult to access), the fire pit (smores!) and the hot tub on the property. A few even ventured up to the pool/spa at Loon. Each day was spent enjoying the local activities...rock slides in Woodstock, kayaking on the pemi (17 of us..great day!), the Hobo Railroad, Echo Lake, Whales Tales and Loon Mtn. (bungi jumping, ziplining, gondola to the top, etc.). We had great happy hours and dinners at the house - plenty of room for all to dine at the island and the table. As we were a big group (including a group staying at my sister's house) and ventured to different places on different days, we came up with a way to share our days with each other...dinner time movies!!! We loaded everyones photos from the given day onto a laptop and displayed them on the flatscreen in the living area. Everyone looked forward to the show each evening - lots of laughs! We've always been big fans of this area for winter recreation; but this property definitely lends itself to a great summer get away also. The owners and the property manager were all wonderful to deal with...quick to respond and very personable. I believe we'd all recommend this property to others.

The condo, more like a home, was unbelievably beautiful! Not only was it immaculate but the decor was simply gorgeous. The kitchen and living room with the stone fireplace were awesome. We enjoyed the view from the comfy porch as well and loved the ski chairs! Each of the bedrooms were perfectly decorated right down to the pillows! Our guests were totally awestruck by such accommodations. Even the bunk room was delightfully decorated. It was was a perfect location spot and only a few minutes to town by car. Truthfully, it was hard to leave! We are so looking forward to staying here again. Thank you Alan and Ann! It was truly a pleasure.
