This was our 2nd stay at the House on the Hill and it was equally as lovely as our first stay. Anne is fabulous to work with and made sure we had everything we needed. The home is immaculate, well maintained and loved. We look forward to visiting again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at House on the Hill! The cabin was very clean and well appointed. We had everything we needed and more! The location is perfect: a short walk to Howard Pond for swimming and watching the loons, to a marvelous hike to Howard Pond Overlook. It is near the town of Bethel, ME and Grafton Notch State Park. The communication with the host was wonderful. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Awesome place

We spent 5 days while attending an event in the area and loved the house from the moment we walked in. Very well provisioned, clean and a great location for what we needed. The lake was a nice bonus. We will absolutely be staying again in the future.

Wonderful time!

The House on the Hill was adorable! We had a lovely weekend away here. The check in process was easy and the property manager was wonderful. The house was perfect, updated and had a very cozy feeling. We skied and it was easy to get to the mountain. Would recommend this stay to others and would book again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay at the ‘House on the Hill.’ There was every amenity available and the location offered much needed peace and solitude. The kids really enjoyed swimming at Howard Pond. We would definitely rent again!

One of our best stays in all of Maine

This property was undoubtably one of the most organized and well appointed places we have ever stayed at in over 10 years of using VRBO. Simply lovely and so user friendly. The location is incredible. A lovely pond surrounded by the foothills of the Mahoosic Range. A real gem. Anne was incredibly helpful and you could tell there were decades of love in memories win the property. Five stars.

Fantastic house!

We had such a great time staying at the “House on the hill”! We spent most of our time sitting on the porch, or in the water at the pond. The house has everything you could ever want or need. We had a bad storm one night and lost power, but the owner communicated immediately when it would be back on, and where the lanterns and batteries were, incase they were needed. We would absolutely stay there again.

Great house for the weekend of skiing

We rented the House on the Hill for two families with kids. The house is perfect, everything is so nice, clean and cozy. We had little problem with internet connection, but the owner resolved it very quickly. Thank you, Anne. Our kids loved it! and want to be back next year. :)

Our stay at this as charming home was warm and welcoming! We wanted to give our kids a snowy experience, and a skiing experience. We were 20 minutes away from Sunday River and Black Mountain! We went skiing one day and tubing at Black Mountain the next. We were always exited to come back to our cozy home in the hill. It was well equipped with everything we needed. Very clean and perfect for the 4 of us. Board games and movies at night with good family time. I would highly recommend this home. Anne (the host) was a great communicator, and all was perfect. We would definitely come back. Happy New Year!

Such a beautiful pond to spend warm summer nights.

Everything went well. Early check in and late check out were much appreciated. Only complaint was that the house was not the cleanest. Also, the bugs were bad in the house. Not sure how to remedy that.

Katie, cleanliness is our top priority. I appreciate your comment and we will pay attention to the small details you mentioned. For the first time, all the houses around the Pond are experiencing pesky gnats in the house this summer. Their sudden appearance is a mystery, and we're eager to get rid of the gnats.

We enjoyed this home

This house is bigger than it looks in the pictures. Very clean and organized. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and has all stainless appliances. The little wood stove was wonderful after a day of skiing. Only minutes to Sunday River. Wifi works great, but cell service is iffy at best. There is a phone there you can use, even a wifi printer. Linens and towels provided and nice quality, but we all agree the firm beds are very firm. I slept fineIt's a great rental! Thanks for sharing!

Cozy home right near a lake and the mountains

We spent 4 nights here as a family of four during April break--even though it was the off-season, we got to ski at Sunday river (spring skiing in slush) which is 15 minutes away and did a bunch of hiking in Grafton notch state park--also about a 15-20 minute ride. Anne's house was very comfortable with great beds/sofas/loft area for the kids to lounge. The kitchen was well-appointed--one of the best I've seen in a rental--and we were able to cook meals easily. Anne was extremely responsive. I mentioned that we didn't have fire wood when we arrived and within an hour, she had friends drop some off, which allowed us to warm up with the lovely wood stove. This house is walking distance to Howard Pond and would be a great place in the summer too. We loved our stay and would definitely return.
