These cabins are nice. The location was great to do the Cog Railway in the morning. The front screened in porch was nice and I would have enjoyed it had... read more we been there longer. The hotel provided info on places to eat in the area which was nice. I appreciated the staff for going to trim our lights on when we arrived after dark so we could find the cabin. The bathroom was small but the rest was good size. Bit older but still pleasant.
October 1, 2022We try and get up here yearly to enjoy all that the white mountains have to offer during the summer time. This has by far been a favorite place for... read more me and my big family. Over the past years we’ve been able to stay in many of the different cottages. They are all so cute, different and extremely cozy. The staff has always been very friendly and helpful during our stays if there was ever a problem they were right on it. So honest and dedicated to making sure everyone loves the place as much as they do. Days that we hung around the property we loved being in the pool especially this year being in my 3rd trimester I pretty much lived there. I also put their new septic system to the test with all the morning sickness and constant bathroom trips. We were sad to hear that this will be the last year with the owners and the amazing cleaning staff since it has been sold this year. We hope the new management will be just as good but we’re very sad that our daughter won’t get to grow up with the staff they have here. Especially one of the cleaning girls she has been amazing with my nieces they love to fallow her around and watch her she’ll sneak in some play time with them. Thank you for all the amazing memories you will be missed
July 23, 2019Good:
Screened porch at the cabin. Location (central to the Whites). TV, wi-fi, fridge worked fine. Ya Ya's (north of intersection) offers nearby basic groceries and subs (must be good... read more as it draws lots of customers).
Not so good:
Bed is short (I'm 6'2") and because the headboard juts out a few inches, I had to pull the bed off the wall by 4-5" and sleep diagonally on the mattress. Heating unit is a single blower in the bedroom, which doesn't maintain a consistent temperature during the night. Kitchen has no running water and so cleaning dishes is done in the bathroom sink whose stopper needs to be lifted to allow orts to run off. Bathroom window knob jammed and inserted packaged napkin between knob and frame to avoid having to fight the know when wanting to open or close the window. Closest large grocery store 21 minutes away in Littleton. (Only) one maid service for every 7-day stay. More
