The cabin was very clean. Because the weather was cold and rainy during the majority of our stay, we were unable to use the enclosed porch area of the... read more cabin. There sleeping area of the cabin was tiny and there was a very small area to hang some clothes and nowhere to put our suitcases. There were 2 beds, but if we had four people, our clothes would have had to go out on the porch. There was one chair inside and we brought a plastic chair in from the porch and used a tv tray for a table which allowed no room to move around. Getting to the small fridge and cupboard was a challenge. We were advised that we needed to let the water run "awhile" to get warm water to the cabin because the pipes ran underground. We had to let it run for at least 5 minutes to get to lukewarm, so face and handwashing were cold water only. We did have to let it run at least that long to get a shower in, but then the water was warm and full until someone else must have turned on their water and the pressure decreased to half.

The wall unit heater either blasted you out because the room was so small or you shivered while you took a break from the heat.

The location of the cabins are excellent and I think it would be a much different story if we had visited in the summer when the weather is warm and the pool is open. We had easy access to the Cog Railway up Mt. Washington which was one of our objectives. We also had easy access to the Franconia Notch State Park, Crawford Notch, and the abundance of waterfalls and covered bridges. We arrived on Tuesday and found out that there are very few restaurants in the area that are open on Tuesday during this time of year after calling about 5 or 6 to check. I would not come back again in October.

  Any way we stayed there 3years ago and the lady said she was selling the p, lace. We came back this year and now she seems to be selling the... read more place again. It is run down, she is nice at first. Ge ready for an unstable stay if you are there for more than a day, The toilets clog all the time, the water out of the sinkis polluted by old pipes. The pool is dirty and if you want privacy forget about it. The people that clean the rooms are less then geniune as we found stuff missing from our room. Anyway go there at your own risk. A $30 place being charged $100 +. I am actually telling the truth!
