About this property

Perfect all-season getaway! Storyland so close and Saco River a walk away!

Our home is the perfect vintage White Mountains retreat all year long!Nestled in the Valley, we feel it is just as much of an all season destination as the places you will visit while here.

This little cottage in the woods has everything you need! Master bedroom with queen bed, second bedroom with three beds, a loft bedroom with 3 cots, and a pullout couch for extra sleeping, in front of the big screen! Cozy up next to the woodburning stove in the lodge atmosphere of the bonus great room. Smart TV, wet bar and mini fridge for your enjoyment, but, the decor makes you feel like you stepped back into simpler times!

Thoughtfully detailed original local art & vintage artifacts flank the walls, honoring the history and nature of the beautiful White Mountains! The bathroom is spacious, with a stone floor walk-in shower. Complete kitchen with a gas stove, a coffee station (coffee pot), a crockpot and all cooking essentials (except the creature comfort of laundry).
For that, you will have to go to the local laundromat. Trash is guest responsibility. We provide bags but no trash collection in Bartlwtt.. Absolutely No cleaning FEE (save up to $200!)

Enjoy your view outside the sliders to the acres of forest behind you. An open floorplan including another tv, off the kitchen, completes the main space.

Out of respect for all our future guests, we ask no smoking and no pets. However, there are doggie daycare facilities close by!

Winter-
Ski Bretton Woods(18mi), closer -Cranmore Wildcat, King Pine and, of course, Attitash- 2.5 minaway!
Street is flat & large plowed driveway! SNOWMOBILE trails all around -Walk to the top of the street & rent some at NORTHERN EXTREMES. (Book ahead)

Summer/Fall
Warmer months of the year, enjoy coffee on the front porch and hear the distant whistle of the Cog train, play a game of cornhole on the lawn, or relax around the firepit out back. Walk to the river at night to take in a grand open view of our Galaxy!

Hike the Langdon Trails or float in the Saco River, just steps outside the door. Shopping & golf in North Conway is a 20 minute ride.
Closer attractions include Storyland, Jackson Falls, Diana's Bath, Echo Lake, Crawford Notch, Cog railroad and more!

So many wonderful restaurants/pubs too! Red Parka and Tuckerman’s are very close by. Walk to Cabin Fever for lunch! And for all your last minute needs, Bart's store and deli is only 2 minutes by car or a nice walk past the gazebo on 302! Bring your bikes, floats and river shoes and enjoy nature all around. You will not be disappointed!

Great House for Families

This home is so cozy and cute. We felt right at home. There is plenty of room for everyone to spread out and the kids loved the loft upstairs. The house is also filled with an assortment of games, books, and crayons for evenings or rainy days. We enjoyed staying here.

Awesome location, fun house!

We had a great time staying in this quirky and cute house. I loved all the little details and the fact that it seemed like a home, not a rental. We went primarily for Story Land, which was an easy 10 minute drive, so we even came home for lunch and a break and then went back until it closed. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, and Tina was so responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay again and I'd love to check it out in the winter!

Great White Mountains location

The owners were incredibly responsive and easy to contact when we were concerned about a huge rainstorm and the house being close to the Saco River. It was nice to know we could reach out and get immediate reassurance and advice. The house is well located - an easy drive to several ski areas as well as all the activiites in North Conway. It was a very relaxing weekend.

Relaxing Bachelorette weekend by the lake

We stayed at this property for a cozy few days to celebrate an upcoming wedding. Property was everything we needed, true to listing, so convenient to many locations and the lake was just gorgeous. Kitchen and kitchenware could do with a deep clean as we were a group who liked to cook we ended up sanitizing kitchenware/spaces, especially as bugs can easily access. Host was so communicative and supportive and the kitty on property was an absolute joy. Would absolutely recommend.

Winter Vacation

Couldn’t be happier with our stay. We arrived late in the evening in a snow storm to find the driveway plowed, the heat set to a comfortable 65 degrees and the lights on. The owner was very helpful and amenable to everything. The property was well maintained and the property manager took care of snow removal promptly. Everything we needed was there for us. The location was ideal. X/C skiing and snowshoeing a short walk away. Definitely want to return.

Perfect Spot

This cozy ranch was the perfect spot for myself and two sisters to stay while we were visiting family in the area. The pictures don't do the house justice, and we were pleasantly surprised by the the space we had to spread out in and enjoy. The house was clean, nicely decorated, and well appointed with everything we needed. The backyard worked out great for our socially distanced gathering around the firepit. We also enjoyed a short, but steep, hike up Cave Mt. Trail, which was right down the road. We hope to be back!

Wonderful home in a wonderful place

This lovely home was just perfect for my family of 4. Fantastic amenities and all the comforts of home, within a short drive of some of the most beautiful places in The White Mountains. Clean, cozy, and comfortable, it was all that we could have hoped for. After one night in the 2nd bedroom, my boys discovered and loved the loft for their own little 'camping' experience. We also loved swimming in the Saco at the end of the road. We are certainly hoping to return. A++++++

Quiet cottage but close to sights

We enjoyed this cute, rustic cottage with space for all our family to enjoy. The house has everything you will need, the only thing that would have been really nice to have is a washer/dryer. We enjoyed the boards games, books and backyard fire pit. Just a little walk down the street is the river and we did the cave mt hike - a short 1 hour hike with some steep areas for the kids but the view was worth it. Everything was as described in the listing. Thanks Tina!
