Spectacular home! Very welcoming, cozy, all the amenities! Beautiful scenery. The outlook porch and patio are spacious and comfortable. The community center is in close proximity; very nice, we enjoyed the outdoor pool and entertainment. Karen and Adam are top notch! We would definitely come back for another summer vacation!
A great spot for our ski weekend! Place was clean, had simple rules, and easy communication with owners. We enjoyed the large living area & great bedrooms.
The home was a perfect home away from home. 30 minutes in each direction to a great ski area, lots of amenities on site and in the community. Hosts were very communicative and happy to address any questions. Would stay here again.
Perfect house for our annual family ski trip! Clean, all amenities you need and lots of space. We would definitely recommend staying here! Communication with owners was wonderful!
The property was perfect for group of (8) golfers. The place had everything we needed, was just far enough out of town for privacy and only 10 minutes away from the owls nest CC.
Nice large house for our family getaway. Loved the open concept on the first floor and decor. Everyone said the beds were very comfortable too. The fire place is wood so make sure to bring your own firewood. House includes many games and toys for kids which we appreciated. Location was approx midway between Loon ski mountain resort and waterville valley ski resort.
Great house and location! House was extremely clean and well stocked with supplies. I could have left a lot of things at home. Community center had multiple pools and things to do. Even live entertainment. Beds were extremely comfortable.
Well-appointed, kid-friendly house with easy access to the mountains and an extra bonus -- the use of the club house at Waterville Estates with indoor/outdoor pools, gym, arcade, hot tub and games. The kids loved playing hide and seek in the multi-story home and listening for birds on the front deck and back patio.
We had a wonderful time at this property! I would definitely recommend it. It was everything we hoped it would be for our winter getaway. We went swimming at the community center that is approx 1.5 miles from the house and the next day we went tubing at Waterville Valley which was about 18 minutes from the house. We ate at the Common Man Restaurant in Plymouth, NH. Which is always wonderful. Great house, great location, great time! Thank you to Karen and Adam.
A little off the beaten path, this home is nestled in the woods in a scenic mountain area for a feeling of peace and seclusion yet 5 min from whatever we needed. A personal note welcomed us and fans already cooling the house for our arrival. Two small families had plenty of room to relax. Family friendly as promised. The house came fully stocked and great care and thought given to guests needs. It is obvious this family loves this home and want their guests to love it too. The owner was prompt and personable with communication. 10/10 given by all adults and kids in our party.

Thank you Paula, you’re welcome to come anytime!

I hosted my mother and her friends with their children for a birthday weekend getaway at Karen and Adam’s cabin. The pictures don’t do this place justice! The floor plan was plenty spacious for the 8 of us (including kids and teens) and the decor was beautiful! The kitchen was well stocked with the basics and plenty of kid and adult friendly plates, cups, and silverware.
We stayed from Jan 18th to the 21st and the temps outside were well below freezing for the duration of our stay, but the cabin is well insulated with separate thermostats for each area, and the fireplace worked beautifully.
The communication with Adam and Karen was great! We received our check in code on time, their welcome binder was thorough and informative, and when we cooked a pizza at too high a temperature and set the fire alarms off, Adam called the home phone to ensure we were safe, and remotely turned the alarms off for us.
I would 100% stay here again, it’s beautiful, well kept, spacious and comfortable. Thanks for the wonderful stay!
Loved the location and house overall. Spacious and accommodating. Loved that this home had trundle beds instead of bunks beds like most other NH rentals. Kitchen had all the pots, pans and utensils we needed and then some. Toilet paper, paper towels & cleaning supplies were provided but limited.
House wasn't dirty per se...but she could use a deep clean.
Seems like there's a moisture problem, house smelt musty especially in the basement (which is also the main entrance). There were notes not to touch any of the blinds so we figured we weren't supposed to open any windows. Opened one window in the kitchen (that didn't have blinds) but it was full of cobwebs and grime so decided against trying to air the place out. Some dishes appeared to have been put away dirty. Surfaces felt a bit icky. One of the guest beds felt gritty like the sheets hadn't been washed and had sand in them.
All in all, home was great. Could use a de-humidifier and more thorough house cleaners.
Property is well maintained, clean and well equipped. Appliances are current in a decent sized kitchen. Every bedroom has tv/internet.
Only caution is for those who can't deal with lots of stairs (20 stairs from ground level to 1st floor, 10 more to 2nd floor bedroom level).
We had a great time staying here. Booking and communication was extremely easy. The house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. We will definitely book again.
This home was the perfect spot for our group of 6 to stay while attending the Boogie. Well done! Hope to reserve again for next year and years to come.
Very nice home, great location. House was spacious, clean and the hosts had lovely added touches to make the stay perfect. Very easy check out process. Would highly recommend!
We had such a wonderful time with our family - the house was beautiful and welcoming! We had a great time visiting local attractions recommended by Karen and Adam!
