The area
The house is a quick walk or drive into downtown Keene, a quaint college town with terrific restaurants, shops, parks, bars and entertainment. Situated in the beautiful Monadnock region, there is so much to explore! Hiking, orchards, lakes, farms, classic towns, ski areas, rivers, bike trails, museums and more. We’ve written a guide to the house and local attractions to tip you off to some of our favorites that we’ll send upon booking.
Guest access
Guests have access to the entire home, porch, yard and parking pad. The only restricted area is a locked mudroom at the back of the house (not very exciting anyway) and the exterior red shed (someday this will be a cool guest space).

Other things to note
The house is best suited to families and friends with children 5 and older. Our goal is for you to have a fabulous stay and ensure guest safety and mutual respect for our home: We’ll send you our house rules upon booking to make sure everyone has the same expectations.

There is a bed in the reading loft that is strictly for lounging. This hideaway spot is only accessible by ladder and is not safe to use as a sleeping area. But we do have a bonus twin bed in the library alcove that is perfectly safe and comfortable for sleeping.
