A great stay as part of a family birthday celebration. Summit Vista gave us a great base to experience so much of the area, then be able to come back and enjoy all the well thought out details and unbeatable views this home had to offer! Hope to be back again.

This property was perfect for our family vacation to Storyland. The view alone was worth it! You feel like you are in the clouds looking at Mt Washington. The rooms were clean and the place had everything we needed and more. It was a great experience all around.

Elizabeth, it was a pleasure hosting your family vacation to Storyland! Thanks again for choosing Summit Vista. We’re so happy you had a great experience, and hope you come visit again soon! And yes - the view… 🤩
Summit Vista is a beautiful location. Remote enough to give Mountain Views but close enough to restaurants and trails.
Very clean and exactly as described online. The owner was very prompt in replies which was much appreciated.
We wished we could have stayed longer.

It was a pleasure hosting you, Matt! Feel free to come back anytime, you’re always welcome at Summit Vista!
It was a very nice stay that all of us (three 5-year-olds and five adults) enjoyed. The rooms and kitchen feel clean and ready for us. Communication with the owner was easy. My only complaint is the limited parking space (one) which is not enough for a group of people.

Hi Frances, I’m glad you had a nice stay! In regards to the parking, all units have 1 deeded parking spot, but there is plenty of visitor parking - especially im the Summer with the large turnaround spot open for park in. I wish you had mentioned this during your stay so that I could have given you more information, as parking really shouldn’t be an issue at Summit Vista. Anyway, thanks again for staying with us - have a great Summer!
We had such a wonderful weekend stay at Summit Vista! The accommodations were just as advertised! Lovely, updated property with plenty of room for our family of 5. The area was perfect and close to many of the areas outdoor attractions. Jim and Bri provided us with a comfortable and cozy space to relax and enjoy time with our adult children. The views from the deck were breathtaking and we are thrilled to have found such a wonderful spot! Terrific hosts and accommodations!

The chalet is a gem of a rental! It is a bright, clean, updated condo with a stunning view of the mountains. Our group of 4 adults found it to have all the necessary amenities of convenience, including an electric fireplace and comfortable beds. Jim is a superior host, both responsive and friendly, which helped contribute to our relaxing stay. We had the perfect mountain getaway!

Our family had a fantastic stay at Summit Vista! We had blue skis so enjoyed the awazing views of the snow-capped Mountain Washington and the Presidential Range on the back deck. The property was well appointed with high-end fixtures and amenities. We loved the decorations with the mountain-theme. The host was super responsive. Wish our stay was longer. Looking forward to returning!

Summit Vista is extraordinary! Phenominal views of Mt Washington and many other mountains as well as the sunsets right through the windows and on the deck. Perfect location to hike, bike and kayak nearby and even take a day trip to Old Orchard Beach and Popham Beach Maine. Jim is an exceptional host whose communication is proactive, thorough, very responsive and pleasant. The interior is immaculately clean, updated, and furnished so comfortably. Beds and linens could not have been more comfortable. Kitchen is beautiful and contains everything we needed to make some breakfasts and dinners.We have rented many VRBOs over the years including several near Summit Vista, but when we return to the area, we will absolutely plan to stay at Summit Vista.

Thanks so much for staying with us, and for the awesome review! What a beautiful photo too. We look forward to hosting you again, enjoy the rest of your Fall!
The property was very well maintained and had all of the little touches that kept us from needing to run to the store unnecessarily, which was very nice. Jim was very communicative and friendly, and helped make the entire process from booking through departure smooth. The view was wonderful as advertised, and is a massive highlight of the property. Overall, just very impressed with the property and owner.

Chalet style unit on mountain offers captivating views of mountain range. Unit itself is well appointed with washer-dryer, decent kitchen, Wi-Fi and tvs. We had two minor issues that the owner addressed promptly. This was a lucky discovery!

Hi, I'm Jim! My wife, Bri, & I purchased our little slice of mountain paradise, Summit Vista, in the Fall of 2020. We’ve been sharing our home with family, friends, and guests ever since.
Along with our 2 children, Keely & Brodie, we live in the coastal town of Scituate, MA. That said, we’re mountain people, and we head north to ski, ride, hike, and enjoy the White Mountains any chance we get. Come visit and see why we love the White Mountains!
