Beth ##### Beth A. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 3 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location Karen's house is in a great location, within walking distance of a small grocery store, a cute coffee shop and a couple of restaurants, and only about 15 minutes away from numerous hiking trails. The house has the charm of an 1800's farm house, with sloping floors and doors that are a little difficult to close as a result. However, the kitchen is well-equipped and there is lots of space. We loved hanging out in the large family room. The beds were comfortable, and while there is only air conditioning in the family room, it cooled off so nicely at night that the box fans that were in each room were all that we needed to keep cool. The front porch with its rocking chairs was a wonderful place to read. The house is nicely equipped for a large group, with plenty of places to sit and a large dining room table. The yard is big and flat - a great place for young kids to play. The house was very clean, something we appreciated in this time of COVID-19. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Mark S. 28 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Very disappointing The location was accurately described and we liked the quaint, friendly town. However, we felt the “meticulous” and “spotless” descriptions in the property listing were misleading . Outdoor lanterns were leaning over, front porch rocking chairs were broken and there was a dead Christmas planter outside the back door (it was mid-March). There was a septic-like smell when we entered, peeling paint/wallpaper and Christmas decorations (some dead) throughout (again, it was mid-March). The handrail on the stairs leading to the second floor was unsafely loose and attached to the wall with a dowel and a screw. In the upstairs bathroom, there were several dead flies on the counter upon arrival, the bathroom light consisted of a bare lightbulb, the grout in the shower was completely black, the toilet was stabilized with shingles shoved under it, the bathroom floor was unstable and buckled up and down when walked on and a wall covering behind the mirror was frayed, faded and hanging off the wall. ##### Mark S. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### rjb B. 29 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic Vacation Home My stay at this house was absolutely fantastic. This is a very special & beautiful home, one that is extremely charming and comfortable. The bedrooms and bathrooms were 100% spotless, as was the kitchen. The family room is really nice, with a fireplace, large comfortable sofas, cable TV, and picture windows with views of the mountains. The family room also has painted wall murals of Cannon Mt and skiing themes which are really quite impressive. There is also a very large backyard where we threw the football and baseball around, and with plenty of room for children to run and play. It was lots of fun sitting around the fire pit at night too, with plenty of precut and stacked firewood. And if you like star gazing, the night sky is breathtaking. The house could not be better situated, with Franconia's restaurants, shops and markets just down the road, and very close to all of the sites and attractions of the area. The Flume Gorge, Mt Washington, The Basin, Lost River, Clarks Trading Post, and other scenic places are all a short drive from the house. Cannon Mt is a very close, which offers great skiing for all levels. The hosts were absolutely fantastic.; super nice people who were instantly responsive whenever I had a question. In sum, I have to say that this is truly one of the nicest and most comfortable homes that I have ever stayed at, and one that I am looking forward very much to returning to again. Thank you very much to my wonderful hosts! ##### rjb B.

It was very nice having the two living room spaces so that there was space for some people to quietly read while others played games in the other space. Location on Main Street, but also a very short drive to Cannon, Artists Bluff/Bald Mountain (who could have predicted that we would be hiking there in late December), and Littleton is great. Mattresses upstairs are not new and upstairs shower takes some acrobatics to get low enough to wash your hair, but that was part of the charm of the place. ##### vincent l.
