Well equipped studio appartment.

The four of us (all grown-ups) had a very comfortable stay at the apartment. It was super clean and had everything you need for a weekend stay and beyond. The hosts were welcome and helpful. Highly recommended, especially if you looking for a get away quiet place.

Great peaceful spot

What a little gem! The pictures online didn't do it justice. While I was only there for a short period of time, it was fantastic. We meet the owners as soon as we arrived, they are very nice. It's quiet, clean, and surrounded by nature. Plus, it's close to shopping and the lake. And the drive to get there is unbelievably gorgeous.

A welcoming loft in the woods.

The appartment is clean, modern and private. Having a carraige house apartment away from the main house made it more homey. We met Elaine, Ricky, and their two dogs when we arrived. They are very nice people and Elaine even made us some muffins that tasted great with our morning coffee. We look forward to visiting again next year.

This place met all our needs. This home is located just outside of the tourist areas. So if you don't mind a little extra driving to get peace and quiet, along with the comforts of home, this is the place for you.

Absolute GEM nestled away near Alton Bay!

I was completely blown away by our stay here! Tucked away less than 10 minutes from Alton Bay is this place that we very much hope to return to in the future! Everything provided was top-notch. Beautifully maintained property with the owners on site, readily available to assist with anything you might need. However, they thought of everything AHEAD of time, making our stay plenty memorable, peaceful, and relaxing. Could not ask for a better location, better hosts, or a better property. Thank you so much for the much needed peace of mind!

Perfect, quiet getaway

This was the perfect, peaceful, relaxing, quiet carriage studio for our mother/daughter trip to New England! It had everything we needed, and the beds were very comfortable. Elaine even made us some pumpkin spice muffins and left out snacks - much appreciated. :) It was also in a great location for everything we did in New Hampshire and surrounding states. We’ll definitely return with more family in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Elaine & Rick Moline

Host profile image
We are originally from Southern California! We started coming to New England when we got married and honeymooned in Stowe, Vermont. We continued to vacation back here and finally made the move in Summer of 2018 when we made New Hampshire our home. So far we have enjoyed the experience of 'rural' living and living a slower lifestyle than we were use to.

Why they chose this property

We have stayed in quite a few VRBO rentals and I always leave thinking this is cute, I would stay here again. Which is what I would hope guests would say about our rental. We live on the property but the apartment has it's own entrance and is not attached to our home. It's been a labor of love that my husband has put into it and we think it's a perfect place to call 'home' while on vacation.
All we ask is that you treat the apartment as you would your own home.

What makes this property unique

10 minutes to Alton Bay, 30-40 minutes to Mt Major, Gunstock Mountain and 25-30 minutes from Bank of NH Pavillon, Castle in the Clouds
WW2 museum located in Wolfeboro 20 minute drive.
45-60 minute drive to Kittery/York Maine, about the same distance to Portsmouth, NH a good 1 1/2 to Boston.

Great hiking in the area as well. You can rent SUP boards in the Bay. Quite a few places to eat and get ice cream in the Bay as well.
