Ski trip with Family

The house was equipped with everything we needed and more!! It was a perfect location, exactly as described, in beautiful quaint neighborhood with a Mountain View. A short 10 minute drive to Bretton Woods for skiing and snowmobiling. The owners thought of everything, just so cozy and a wonderful experience overall. We are hoping to return for a weekend in the summer!

Hidden Gem

Lovely home in great location, close to the most beautiful areas of the White Mountains. Construction is especially good in allowing privacy to upstairs occupants (children, office user, etc.). Kitchen well equipped. Lovely view from front porch.

A perfect mountain getaway

Everything about this property was delightful! There is a lot to love here, but I'll list out some of my personal impressions. This is not a comprehensive list. The bedrooms were cozy and spacious. The common areas were incredibly comfortable. There's a lot of natural light. There's a full and well appointed kitchen, with everything you could want, including an Instant Pot. There is shampoo and conditioner in the showers. The downstairs shower has build-in railings for accessibility. There are jigsaw puzzles and board games. The owners really thought of everything! There's a great fire pit in the back and wood burning stove inside. There are detailed instructions for how everything works, as well as maps and brochures for local attractions. You can see the white mountains from the windows. If you walk a hundred feet down the road, you have a clear view of Mt Washington. I have nothing but praise for this place. An absolute diamond.

Extremely Nice Property

We have rented from several platforms over the years and probably well over 25 properties. At the time of this writing this was one of the most well organized and well laid out units we have had the pleasure to rent. When I say fully stocked kitchen, I’m a chef and the kitchen ROCKS! I’ve travelled with my own knives in the past. No need here. Sharp knives! Everything was A+ from appliances to food products such as coffee, sugar, cooking oils, plastic wrap, spices, and much more. Nice job Lisa. By the way she’s the polite host who runs the show and she’s top notch. Wood stove worked simply and perfectly. I’m happy to report that I can’t think of anything negative to report. Except for maybe a few slow moving ladybugs trying to make it through the winter on the windowsills. A stunning property for large or small groups. By the way, I’m picky and don’t give out 5 stars very often but I know when it’s earned.

We reside on the eastern end of Long Island. We love skiing, hiking and all things nature. This home is such a blessing and we
Love to share it with others.

Why they chose this property

It’s quiet, in a great location and is surrounded by national forest. Bethlehem and Twin Mountain is a perfect in between to many ski mountains and the beautiful White Mountains. It really has the best of everything, and we’ve skied and hiked many different mountains.

What makes this property unique

To sit on the front porch of this home and smell the mountain air, see the Twin mountains and enjoy the sun shining on your face is a heavenly experience. The inside is so cozy and well designed, and we’ve stocked it will all the amenities and then some!
