Lovely house

We stayed here during a ski race at Black Mountain. The quaint town was decorated with holiday lights and the church bells in the distance were no very to hear. The house is spacious and roomy enough for us and two teenagers. Everything was comfortable and warm. We felt welcomed by Lora and wished we could have stayed longer.

PERFECT!

The house was perfect for my wife and I (filled with beautiful antique furniture). It was clean, had everything we needed and was in the perfect location for visiting family in East Andover. We called in the late evening to see about checking in a couple of days early. The house wasn't ready at that time, but Lora was great and was able to get it ready in a very short time. Lora was the perfect host during our stay. I will definitely stay here again and definitely recommend it to everyone!

Quiet Paradise in Western Maine

The farmhouse in Andover was a perfect place to stay while visiting family at a nearby lake. It was meticulous, the owners were easily available if needed. It had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and it felt like home away from home. We walked to breakfast a couple mornings to eat at Mill's market were the people were very friendly and welcoming. The convenience of having a bathroom on both the first and second floor was an added bonus. Having a washer and dryer in the downstairs bathroom was wonderful we did not need to pack as much. I loved hearing the nearby church bell ring on the hour.

Simple Living and Great Value

My wife and I spent a long weekend here while ATVing over the Labor Day holiday. The house is perfectly located with direct access to gas and food. Plenty of parking for truck/trailer. The house has everything you need to feel at home. And our hostess, Lora, was in contact with us frequently before the trip and responded to questions almost immediately! On our trip, the laundry was not fully available (no dryer for a couple of days), but Lora graciously discounted her already low rate to compensate for the inconvenience. That said, the unit now has brand new laundry appliances. The pictures are very accurate. The bathrooms are updated and have great water pressure and plenty of hot water. The kitchen has updated appliances in perfect working order. The ONLY downside to this home is the lack of air conditioning. This late in the season, the nights weren't too bad, But if you like it cool/cold when sleeping, the fans will only do so much. My wife is always cold, so she was VERY comfortable here! I'll bet it is nice and cozy in the fall/winter. The only thing we would bring the next time would be our own pillows. We will definitely be back here next year, maybe a little later in the season to do a foliage ride. Thanks for a great experience Lora! See you next year.

I’m originally from Rumford. I always loved this small town of Andover. It was peaceful and relaxing. I had everything I needed! I loved spending time in Roxsbury and visiting with family. The farmhouse is wonderful! If it’s ever for sale let me know. Thanks so much

Home away from home

We really enjoyed this lovely location, relaxing on the wrap around porch, s'mores and stargazing around the fire pit, local (easy) hikes, the beautiful local pond for swimming and the stunning views within a half hour drive. The house was immaculate, outfitted with all of the kitchen tools and small amenities we needed, and the owners were very responsive. We were able to settle in fast and felt at home all week. The only improvement I could suggest is Sara's earlier suggestion about replacement of the mattress in the master bedroom. Both beds in the second bedroom were great. We'd definitely stay here again.

Clean, quiet, safe n comfortable

Except for the lack of a bathtub n some days of minus zero windy temperature, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, my home of my 1st seasonal ski rental. Neighbors from the post office, local Mills Market, massage therapist, Visible Changes-hair salon, library were equally hospitable as well with the owners Thank you to the owners, Lora n Scott.

Super cute place

This was adorable, perfect for our little family. The only thing I’d recommend is getting a new mattress in the master bedroom, it was really not that comfortable- springs and very loud. The two double beds were much more comfortable. We had a nice time.

Charming Farmhouse and Area!

We loved staying in a clean and cozy farmhouse. This provided a lovely space for my three children to run and play. There were several leaf piles made under the huge tree outside the door. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the games in the evening and didn't need the TV. What a charming walk we had to the lovely park down the road.

Family Wedding in Andover

This lovely farmhouse in Andover was perfect for our needs. We had a family wedding at the Merrell House, 5 minutes away. My husband got in some great fishing within walking distance of the house. I had a couple of questions and Lora answered and accommodated our needs right away. The house was very clean and had everything needed for an extended stay. We would definately rent this house again.

The house is situated in a quiet small town. There is not much in the town but it is close to hiking trails and a beautiful 22mile scenic drive where we actually saw a moose. The house is quiet and well equipped. We would come again!

Perfect for northern outdoor experience

Within an hour of this lovely farmhouse, we hiked, biked, and canoed the river and lake. We would have gone swimming but the weather did not cooperate. Andover is a beautiful little town. I had read about a bakery down the street, but it had permanently closed… sadly. So don’t plan on eating anywhere but the lodging’s kitchen. But the place had all the pans and dishes we needed. Highly recommend this property for those that don’t mind navigating steep stairs to the bedrooms.
