The Station House was super clean and Susan is a wonderful host! She shared great tips for enjoying the area and she was readily available if needed. The location is fabulous if you are planning to attend a concert at the Bank of NH Pavilion.

Amazing stay!!

The only reason I'm hesitant to leave a review is so this place stays available next time we're in town. Susan is GREAT and very responsive, she gave the option of checking in early and was on top of the one thing we brought to her attention. We'll definitely stay here again assuming it's not taken!!

Super charming place

There is a reason this place has so many great reviews. It is really adorable, very comfortable, and in a great location. And the bed is amazingly comfortable. Hosts really go out of their way to make it a great place to be (robes, yummy treats). The backyard was great for our dog and the fire pit was so delightful. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thanks for everything!

Nice NH getaway

My husband and I came up with our dog for the weekend. She loved the fully fenced backyard! The location is fairly close to a lot of outdoor activities which was nice. Susan was very welcoming and responsive. Great experience!

Perfect Place to Get Away and Relax

We stayed over a long weekend for a concert at the nearby BofNH Paviliion - so close we could walk and avoid the traffic. House is very comfortable and charming - Susan has thought of everything you might need - and it is there. She is a wonderful host - very flexible on check-in - and very helpful with guidance on local amenities. Recommend highly - we will be back.

Was phenomenal. We brought our dog. Susan made us feel so welcome. There’s plenty to do and she’ll help point you if you need suggestions. Place is very cozy. Fire pit with a bottle of wine was relaxing. Highly recommend here. Thanks again Susan.

Cozy and Comfortable

We really enjoyed staying at the Station House. The decorations were great, and the home cozy and comfortable. It was clean and well stocked, and the host (Susan) was excellent at communicating. If you need anything, she is available, just contact her! It's a unique property with interesting history in a great location!

Cozy

The Station House was very cozy and welcoming. The bed was extremely comfortable. My only recommendation would be for the bathroom…very small and could use some TLC. We would definitely recommend this though! We truly enjoyed our stay.

Clean and comfortable

It has a dated charm but was very clean. The bathroom is small but has a large shower. The location was convenient to many things that we normally visit/ do when in the area each summer. Overall we enjoyed our stay and Susan checked in occasionally to see if we needed anything. Thank you Susan for being a great host.

Heart of the Lakes region

Awesome location, cute cottage, roomy, comfortable & clean. Nice back yard with patio furniture to relax in. Close to all the lakes for swimming & boating or kayaking. Local short hikes with great vistas! Susan is only a call away, and just up the road if we needed her. Next concert at the bank of NH pavilion, we'll be looking her up!
