Had an incredible stay at Matthew's. I truly find it hard to believe there is a better place to stay when visiting New Hampshire. The property is very well taken care of, extremely clean, comfortable furniture & beds, spacious shower, and show stopping views from every room. The caretakers are extremely friendly, and the location is very private and quiet. I will be recommending this property to any friends or family traveling to this area.

good-time home stay

Lovely house. Amazing views and nature trails nearby. The kitchen has everything you'll need. We enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately we stayed during the summer and the "heat-dome" hit and without AC the upstairs became quite toasty. The downstairs rooms were fine. Just something to be aware of if you stay in the summer. We would definitely stay here again.

Home away from home

The furnishings and amenities at the house were superior, practical and comfortable. The house was cosy and the setting was peaceful and beautiful. It was the perfect place for my family and another to get together. I will sum up our stay as follows - it felt like the owners shared their home with us, not just a house or property that they are renting out.

We loved it!

I got lots of credit from my family for finding this property! Caretakers were VERY fast to respond to any questions. Kitchen is WELL stocked for anyone who wants to cook (like us)! Kids loved hiding in the loft space to play on their laptops. Fit the 7 of us very well! Would absolutely stay here again.

An enchanting woodland escape

We were two families with three kids between us, in town for a wedding. This house was perfectly appointed and modern, in a rustic dreamlike setting, with unparalleled views and the feeling of perfect seclusion in nature while in reality, a number of conveniences were just minutes away. We would love to return. What a find. Contact with the owner was easy and reassuring. Can't say enough to recommend this beautiful home.

Absolutely Gorgeous

This place is beautiful. The views are unbeatable and the house itself is amazing. Everything you need is included (linens, TP, paper towels, dishes, cookware, staples in the pantry, etc.). Matt (owner) and the property caretaker were responsive and friendly. The only semi negative thing I can say is the WiFi is not great, so if you have children with tablets, maybe download a few shows/games before arriving. Cell reception was good so we were still able to look things up on & use our phones. Overall, we highly recommend this place.

Mountain Relaxation

The rental space in this property is beautiful, comfortable, clean, and peaceful. As a family of six, we had plenty of space for family activities and the kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals. The house is removed from the road so you don’t hear any traffic. We saw lots of birds, butterflies, and bears across the field and had beautiful views of the stars at night. The views are stunning. Local activities were available within 15-30 minutes including hiking and swimming. The only drawback was laundry was not available while we were there.

Thank you for your review. We get a lot of satisfaction out of knowing that other people appreciate the beauty of the place. It’s been a while since we’ve seen a bear there, so it seems that you got particularly lucky!

Perfect Zen getaway

This was our 2nd stay at Matt's Hilltop Retreat, and again we were struck by the serene, calming atmosphere of the space. To us, it has the perfect blend of rustic warmth and modern openness. All, of course, enhanced by the breathtaking views out the windows. We come to NH mainly for hiking, but we found ourselves making sure that we got back in time each day to sit out on one of the decks and take in the view before heading out to dinner. In all other respects we have no complaints. Just as the 1st time we stayed, it was spotlessly clean, well appointed, and Matt and Jordan, the caretaker, both reached out and were friendly and helpful. In all, Hilltop was again, the perfect getaway!! Thanks Matt! Sue and Nat E.

Great House in a Great Location!

We very much enjoyed our stay at this house in Plymouth. The house itself is very well-maintained: it was very clean and all the amenities are up-to-date and in good working order. The manager has done a great job with the screens behind the windows: they are tightly closed, so you can let in fresh air without letting in bugs. (Still, this is a forest location, so be prepared; we saw a terribly HUGE spider in the house one night. Close doors behind you quickly when entering and exiting.) The bathrooms are all clean and in great working order. The location, in a forest with beautiful mountain views, is outstanding, and there is lots of ground to explore around the house. You will hear no sounds but the crickets. You are not near any even semi-main roads. Just nature. Yet, you are less than 10 minutes away both from I-93 and the center of Plymouth (and its university). This is an ideal location for a New Hampshire vacation: centrally located, equidistant from the heart of the White Mountains and the center of the Lakes Region. Both are about 30 minutes away. We are so happy we rented this house. We will definitely be coming back!

Spectacular view, unique property, bed/bath lacking

We had a very nice stay. The property and views are stunning. In my opinion t would be better for a couple, not a multi-generational family of 7 like us. The main level is wonderful. The downstairs bedrooms could use upgrades - mattresses are not great. Upgrade to sheets and towels for renters (not owners) would be nice. Sleeping on owner sheets and using owner towels was fine but toddler sheets downstairs for a grandfather was a bit off. There are no closets in the bedrooms downstairs for hanging clothes. The single shower upstairs was fine, but again for a multigenerational family all using the same shower it was a bit awkward. Caretaker was polite and attentive. *Note - TV in his unit can be heard in adjacent bedroom and he stayed up later than we did. We did not ask him to turn down the volume but I'm sure he would have if we had. Ticks were everywhere on the property so it was helpful to have the notes ahead of time. An iron/ironing board and/or steamer would be a nice touch. We were attending graduation and our clothes needed a touch up.

Secluded Retreat

Amazing views over 5-6 acres of fields. We saw a fox, a coyote, and a black bear cub on a few days. The bed in the master was comfortable and upstairs away from the kid’s room which was downstairs. The main (only full) bath has a shower (no tub on premises) with rain head and also a urinal, which was a big hit on poker night. The care takers who live there are friendly and helpful with any questions. All-in-all a very nice place to get away to.

Beautiful property with amazing views! Great central location for day trips north the ski areas (like Lincoln) and south to Lake Winnipesaukee. Wood stove kept us toasty warm despite almost record setting low temps during our stay. Had a great time, and hope to come back again!

Fantastic! (Not sure how else I could phrase it....)

Great stay in the quiet countryside in NH. The house is really fully equipped and very spacious and modern. We were only 3 persons, but the house would easily fit 7 persons. Fantastic view over the hills and one morning we got visited by a moose strolling across the field 50 yards from the house. We took a hike down nice trials down to a beautiful waterfall. The property is just minutes off the highway, but feels like staying in a remote mountain chalet. When planning the next trip to NH, we will surely want to stay here again.
