Perfect-- nice, comfortable, quiet, clean and fully stocked

First, the condo was really comfortable and clean. The space was silent and the views of the mountains were great. And, we were only a couple of miles from Route 316. Rooms were nice; big, welcoming and clean. Everything was clean, but without the fake smell of "clean." We cooked steak on the grill one night and everything was there that we needed. The back deck looks directly toward a couple of mountains and the views are wonderful. Just a great place to stay, likely the best we have ever visited.

Comfortable pleasant stay

Cute, comfortable house. Very well-stocked kitchen and bedding. Nice view and location. Very smooth and easy check-in process. The mattresses could use an update as they are not very comfortable but manageable. The house was reasonably clean though could use a deep cleaning in many areas. When we arrived, it seemed as though no one had been there for several weeks as it was quite musty and stuffy (especially bedrooms as they are in basement). After a day of running the AC it was comfortable and pleasant. Would recommend the owners run the AC and dehumidifier prior to guests arriving in the summer. We overall enjoyed our stay and suited the needs of our family of 5 very well.

Great place, but challenging stay at times

The property itself is 5 star and awesome. Great location, stunning views, very quiet, extremely clean, well-stocked and comfortable furnishings / beds. Had to downgrade total experience to a 4 though due to some other factors. The property management company sent us the wrong lock box code so we spent over 30 minutes fumbling around in the dark before having to call them for assistance. They resolved it fairly quickly and we were able to get in with an alternative code, but made for a frustrating first impression when you can't get in the place due to wrong info. It snowed the entire day Friday into Saturday, which is normally fantastic and why you vacation in that area in the first place. However, snow removal was somewhat spotty, and we ended up having to shovel a LOT. We returned Friday afternoon to 4-6 inches on the ground and the plow driver hadn't showed up yet - not the end of the world but not knowing when he would swing by, we ended up having to shovel a parking spot / path to stairs / stairs ourselves (he did show up 15 minutes later to take care of the rest, so mostly bad timing there). However on Saturday morning we woke up to well over a foot of new snow. The driver had completely cleared out our neighbors' parking areas but barely touched ours - I know our car parked in one of the spots, but where else were we supposed to park it (?) So we again had to shovel the outdoor stairs / walking path to car / half the driveway. He came by to clear the rest later to take care of the rest after we left the property for awhile, but too little too late. We lost power sometime during early Saturday morning while we were sleeping . Just one of those unfortunate things, nothing anyone can do about that obviously. Not having direct contact with the owner made it somewhat frustrating to chase down update info though - we didn't know which power company serviced that area, status checks required the owner's phone number, which we didn't have. Finally got a fairly reliable update that power wouldn't be restored to that area for another day or two, so we ended up unfortunately having to vacate 1 night earlier than intended. The property management company was good about processing a credit for 1 night so kudos to them for that, but it took quite a bit of chase work and multiple phone calls to expedite that - had we been able to deal with the owner directly, a lot back and forth and aggravation could have been saved.

The best stay in the woods

I loved everything about this house. I was the one who booked the house and kept surprise to my friends and honestly their reaction was worth it. Great place to stay with family, friends, mates. Loved it, best trip with friends and definitely coming back with more days to stay.

Cozy and amazing view

The listing is very accurate. The cabin is very cozy. Fully stocked kitchen. Beds comfortable. Note there are bathrooms on the upper (loft) and lower levels but not on the main floor. Renters should be able to do stairs comfortably. The cabin itself is decades old with some retrofit heating systems but we were very comfortable. A 10-minute drive to North Conway & lots of hiking & skiing in the area. We enjoyed our snug getaway!

Great location & fantastic house

We had a great time staying here! The location is convenient to a ton of great hiking spots & the sauna/ tub are the perfect end to a full day of fighting gravity to get yourself up a mountain. The house was well stocked with everything that we needed and reading a book with a beer on the back deck overlooking the mountains was particularly excellent. All in all it was a great vacation and we wished we could have stayed longer.

Winter Break

The house was exactly what we needed for our ski week! Everything was clean, easy to find, with an excellent view from the back deck. Only comments would be more clear directions on how trash would be disposed at the end of the stay. Other than that it was awesome, would love to stay here again in the future.

Weekend getaway

The house was nice and clean, plenty of room for 4 adults and 3 children ages 2 & under. Very quiet area. We had a little misunderstanding with trash removal, check out is at 11am but dump doesn’t open until 12. we realized later that we could have dropped off trash at the realty office dumpster. Besides that everything was perfect, we would definitely stay here again!
