The house was as described, clean and very accommodating. The host was amazing, quick to reply, and gave tons of tips about the surrounding areas. The house was well stocked with amenities, and the little extras like leaving some treats for the kids and for the dog was much appreciated. Thanks
Had the most amazing stay at Paulas house in FranklinThe location was perfect with stunning views of Lake WebsterWe had my sons wedding in Northfield and it was very convenient to that. We swam every day at the private access pontoon The house has a wrap around porch which we all lovedWe ate our breakfast every morning outside watching the sun come upStunning.We had everything we needed, very well stocked houseWould highly recommend it and would definitely rent again Worth every cent
Our family had a wonderful time here. Unfortunately it was during a very hot spell so some outside activities had to be curtailed. In the evening all the guys watched movies in the media room while the girls kicked back and read. If you walk down the hill to the lake road you can take wonderful walks. Our dog enjoyed her walks with a dip in the lake. The kids enjoyed floating on the tubes and cooling off in the water. The host and property manager were both very helpful and accommodating. We had a little trouble with the lock box but Paula walked us through it. If you remember you are in an antique house and not a luxury hotel you’ll have a great time.
Very comfortable and well equipped house for our family with young kids and small dogs. We especially loved the hammock and easy access to Webster Lake. Host very responsive to questions.
The Farmhouse was a great place to gather with our adult children and use as a base to enjoy the Lakes region of NH. Check-in was easy. Paula was very responsive throughout our stay as well as ahead of time. Enjoyed the deck with the view of the lake, dock for lake access and nearby town beach. Also appreciated the generous snack basket that Paula left for us.
Lovely lake view from the porch and deck. The check in was easy and Megan, the manager is a jewel, as is the owner, Paula. The kitchen was in very good shape with all you could want. Thank you!
We had a great experience with Paula and Kaitlyn.There was a slight issue where they both heard us and worked on fixing the situation. Communication was great and thorough. The location was also only 7 minutes from our worksite, so that was a major plus. Would definitely stay here again should we ever need to come back tot he area!
Our stay at Lake Farm House was absolutely awesome! It was the perfect getaway for our family of eight. The house was impeccably clean and incredibly comfortable, making it a welcoming retreat for all of us.
The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we could possibly need—truly, it had it all! We also loved having plenty of towels and blankets available.
One of the standout features was the amazing deck. We spent countless hours relaxing there, soaking in the stunning view of the lake. The sunroom was another fantastic spot for our family to hang out and enjoy the scenery.
Even though the dock was up during our visit, my brother was able to pick us up in his pontoon boat using the landing area, which worked out perfectly.
Additionally, the property manager and owner responded very quickly to our questions, which made our stay even more enjoyable.
Overall, my family and I would love to stay here again, and we highly recommend this property to other large families looking for an unforgettable getaway!

Our family was seeking a central location for a trip to New Hampshire to use as base camp for a number of day trips and visits to friends and family. The house was perfect. It was comfortable and accommodating. The hosts were very friendly and extremely responsive. They even left us a welcome basket of snacks, a nice note, and explicit instructions for lake access with pictures and directions. The first night we had a campfire with a view of the lake. The second evening, there was a little weather so we made great use of the three season porch. The house included everything we needed (including various paper products even though none were promised by the hosts). One of the days, our friends brought two kayaks over and we took advantage of the dock and lake access.
The house interior was clean (including the refrigerator) with nice bedding, kitchen amenities, entertainment, furniture, etc. It is an old house and as such, there are aspects that you would expect such as older fixtures and creaky floors. If you’re looking for the Four Seasons, this is not the house for you. But if you’re looking for a cozy house with some character and accommodating hosts, this property fits the bill.

Let's start with a positive. Cute farmhouse. Then it started when I went to put the groceries away only to find a dirty refrigerator and freezer, and a kitchen that was well stocked, but completely disorganized, with pots and utensils thrown in several drawers and cabinets. I was given the impression by the description that the lake was just off of the house, well it wasn't. Needed to go down a pretty steep hill which wasn't easy for a family member. There is no way to find her "lake access" unless someone shows you. It's not marked and nobody to show us where her access was. We finally asked a neighbor, because again it wasn't marked, and it turns out to be a tight space with a 6x6 dock, very small, extremely disappointing, basically no lake access. There is only one trash bag for the home and a third of a roll of paper towels. When I told the owner about these things she turned it around on us. We are always suppose to bring our own trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper. We should have let her mgr come back and clean the refrigerator, but I had already done it. The window sills hadn't been cleaned in forever. Dead flies in the medicine cabinet, along with other things left from others. No trash can and no extra toilet paper in the bathroom. When I asked for a reduction in price, she said I'm not paying for your vacation. Would I recommend this place, absolutely not, especially the way the owner treated us.

Thank you for staying with us and for sharing your concerns. I am so sorry that you were disappointed with the service. We try our best to make every guest feel welcome.
I have a cleaning person to clean the house as I am living out of state. She confirmed that she cleaned the refrigerator and the whole house. When I asked you for photos you wouldn't supply those until your vacation was over which was strange. As far as providing guests trash bags and paper towels, I did not check those off as being supplied, but did leave one of each for your convenience. We dropped off more paper towels and trash bags even though we did not agree to supply those. Also, the toilet paper was supplied. After hearing your complaints, I went to the house directly after you left. There were waste baskets in each bathroom. The window sills were dirty on the outside, not the inside. I did not see any dead fly in the medicine cabinet and now it has turned into flies. The lake access was 20ft which was explained before you rented along with the small deck for a couple of chairs. Finally, you did not send pictures until you left the house. You expected half of your money back but never let us try to fix the problem or let me explain that I do not have to supply anything that I have not stated in the VRBO website. I was very responsive and I did everything I could to handle any issues you had while you were there including having my cleaner drop off items, clean, etc. but you were not willing to accept the assistance at the time.
