Great stay in a quiet oasis

Great location

Our stay was comfy, plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The house is in a great location, close to Conway and the Kancamangus. We enjoyed a local brewery and shopping on rainy days and the teens loved the tennis court, kayaking the Saco and using the pool.

We stayed with our 2 and 4 year old daughters and dogs along with my in laws. The house was perfectly laid out to accommodate kids naps, and any games we all wanted to play on the rainy days. The pool was gorgeous and the kids (and adults) enjoyed it daily!

Great Mountain Getaway

Great vacation in Madison. Big, beautiful, well appointed home . The weather during the week wasn’t the greatest, but having the heated pool was a great option . House is close to North Conway but just far enough off the beaten path to enjoy the beauty and quiet of the White Mountains . Definitely planning a return trip in 2024 !!!

Exceptional house, great stay!

Everything from checking to checkout was great! The house is well equipped with kitchen appliances, the rooms were clean and tidy. We loved the privacy of the area, the recreation room and overall the entire place. It was easy to communicate with the owner, they were always available to answer questions. We would definitely come back to this house!

Awesome house!

We had a great time. House was just as described. It was super private, the pool was warm and clean, the beds were comfy, lots of games for the kiddos, everything was perfect! We reached out to the owner via text a few times with minor questions and responses were quick and helpful. I appreciated that we didn’t need to strip beds and start laundry at check-out, it made packing up and heading home that much easier. I highly recommend this property!

Fantastic NH Getaway

The property was perfect for our New Hampshire long weekend and we couldn't have enjoyed our stay more. The location was fantastic and offered a quick ride to King Pine Ski Mountain, Silver Lake and grocery stores/convenience stores. The home was very clean and well stocked with everything two families with young children could want. We had one question during our stay and our hosts replied back immediately. We are looking forward to going up again this summer and enjoying the tennis court and pool!

Summer 2023

This was our second year staying at this property. Plenty of room for 3 generations. Nice location. Heated, private pool was a hit with all ages. Wall hung ACs units was an upgrade from last year and amazing. 3 TVs throughout the house so kids could watch different things helped with fighting :) Storm damage in the area during our stay and communication with host was great.

Great Family Vacation Home

The home is beautiful and great for families. We especially enjoyed the pool/gazebo area and tennis courts. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need to prepare and eat your meals, including children's highchair and dinnerware. Family room included a ping pong table and lots of games/dvd for everybody to enjoy. Our only issue was with Mother Nature and the recent damage due to rain/flooding which made the road up to the house uncomfortable to go out at night. The town was actively working to fix the roads while we were there so shouldn't be an issue much longer. Overall, i would definitely recommend this place and would love to return again.

Dec 24th to 27th

The property was accurately advertised. The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots, etc. and other basic pantry items. There was a new coffeemaker and nice refrigerator and gas stove/oven. The beds were comfortable. Also, as an FYI, there is no TV in the kitchen/family room on the second floor but there is a TV in the family room on the first floor. The location was convenient to North Conway and ski areas. The owners were very responsive to any questions we had. The only reason we gave it 4 stars and not 5 was that the house took a long time to reach 68 degrees when we arrived since guests cannot use the wood pellet stove so the house was heated with baseboard heat only.

Perfect NH getaway close to Conway, hiking, and many other activities!

Amazing house that's minutes away from kid-friendly hiking trails and lots of other family-friendly destinations. The house itself is perfect for a small or large family. Everything is brand new, from the pots/pans to the appliances and some of the furniture. Everything was labeled and extremely clean. There are even a number of kid books, DVDs, and pool toys. Plenty of things to do on the property: horseshoes, pool, tennis, or just relaxing/grilling on the deck. The house is a 5 minute drive to Madison Boulder, the Cascades trailhead, and lots of other fun things. We ended up going to Diana's Baths (20 minutes away) first thing in the morning and everyone loved it! We then took a scenic drive on the Kancamagus highway. You're also very close to North Conway and Storyland. Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend this house for a multitude of reasons! Would definitely rent again.

Shangri-:La awaits you

If we could give this more than 5 stars we definitely would!!! The home is absolutely gorgeous, every level is magical with spacious rooms and beautiful views from every window! The wrap around deck was perfect for gathering around the fire pit or chatting while grilling some of our favorite foods on the grill. The heated pool and gazebo were amazing!! We enjoyed many hours of relaxation floating around in our tubes and then enjoying some cocktails under the lights in the gazebo. The clay tennis court was one of our favorite activities - we had never played on clay before and loved it. We even had fun "raking" it after each session. The ping pong table was also a big hit! We did venture out to the North Conway area a few times as it is only 25 minutes away, but we couldn't wait to get back "home". The home came with every amenity you could ever think of and then some. The beds were extremely comfortable and there was an air conditioner in every bedroom! I really can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was at this property and we will definitely rent here again!

Fell short of expectations!

I hate to give bad reviews but as a prior owner of a Vrbo property there were several issues that need to be addressed. The house was nice and specious and had a lot of amenities however, the house did not seem freshly turned over. The top floor king bed had evidence that the linens were not fresh. The bath mat in adjoining bathroom had mold underneath and it was not possible to have a jacuzzi bath as the jets had not been cleaned in a while. The 1st floor basement level bedroom smelt musty and our friends ended up sleeping in the middle floor bedroom on a trundle bed meant for kids. Closing up instructions were quite onerous on guests having to clean and sort trash considering the cleaning fee charged. All hand soap dispensers had dawn dish soap in them. The amenities were great but horse shoe game area had a lot of dog poop. Shortly after our arrival we discovered there was no iron. We searched every room in the house and after talking to the owner decided we had to make a long trip to North Conway in heavy traffic to purchase one and we were on a tight timeframe to go to our first event. We were all attending a wedding weekend nearby so this was very inconvenient to say the least. Property is lovely but we think maybe it did not have a fresh turnover before our arrival. I did not want to put this on public review but have failed to reach the owner all week.

Great property in a quiet area with shopping, restaurants, and attractions close. Just beware that it's 3 floors and that means 2 flights of stairs.
