The house was as advertised, and very clean. I was really happy the host included a note about bringing your own linens in the ahead message because I missed that. It was a great location for everything in the North Conway area.
Warmest appreciation to the owner for sharing this wonderful slice of Heaven in the mountains. From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. Everything we needed was provided and the furniture was comfortable. We especially loved the secured deck, and spent many hours relaxing with our small adult dog. The location of the chalet is at the base of Cathedral Ledge... a gorgeous area for hiking, climbing or even driving to the summit for breathtaking views. It's also within distance for riding a bicycle to get to the downtown shopping, cafe's, and attractions - - and just far enough away for quiet peacefulness. We should also mention that Echo Lake is an easy walk or bike ride away if swimming or outdoor picnic/grilling is what you enjoy, as well as the easy access to the Swift River for swimming, kayak, or other water adventures. We took a scenic drive up Rt 16, to 302W through Crawford Notch, and down through Franconia, across the Kancamangus.... simply breathtaking, and this chalet is in great location to access this scenic loop. Our evenings were spent enjoying making puzzles on the large table provided. TV reception was great, and had many choices to select from for programming. Yes - we felt right at home, and we send our warm appreciation to the owners. We already look forward to returning and we highly recommend this chalet for any renter looking forward to a peaceful, comfortable retreat.
My husband and I stayed here for the second year in a row. It is in a great location! The setting is beautiful. It is so nice having coffee on the deck. The host is very kind and helpful! He answered questions quickly and was very helpful!
A classic chalet set in a neighborhood of similar up against a state park and cathedral ledge. The home is warm and cozy and a great place to spend time together, reading, playing games and cooking. Proximity is excellent to the center of North Conway and lots of outdoor activities. We all agreed we would love to stay again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming property in the White Mountains. The house made us feel as though we were in the Swiss alps⊠watching the snow float down through the pines from the comfort of the couch with a fire crackling in the wood stove was so enchanting. Close to everything, restaurants and skiing. .Canât wait to book during a season when we can sit outside and enjoy the beautiful porch!
These was our 3rd year staying here in December to start our holiday season. As always, everything was perfect. Great property and just. Highly recommend staying here.
The location very convenient to North Conway. Plenty of room to relax and unwind. Wood stove added a nice heating source and added to the comfort of the home
We were there Oct 17th - 22nd and the weather was in the high 70's ever day which made the down time on the beautiful deck even better. So close to town, and a great neighborhood to walk the dogs for potty breaks. The place had everything we needed, it was nice and clean upon our arrival, and right down the street from cathedrals ledge and other hiking spots. Highly recommend and would definitely rent again. There is a drive up homemade Jam spot close by that we highly recommend, we got Blackberry and Peach jam and it is delicious.
Have had several VRBO places by now and have to say this is the first that I am already planning on returning to. The owner has thought of pretty much everything one would need to stay here. Location is amazing, took my dog for a walk, made a turn and bam, Cathedral Ledge was right in front of me. Easy access to the town of North Conway, just beautiful.
Excellent location with access to many activities - hiking, biking, fly fishing, golfing and sightseeing. The Mount Washington Valley is a great location for the outdoors. North Conway was vibrant this time of year. Highly recommended.
The house was very cute. Perfectly met our needs (small family, 3 adults, 1 child). It had everything we needed. I did find myself wiping down things, and dusting the lights, small things. So it could use just a little sprucing up. Deck was great, neighborhood was great, everything was close by. Echo Lake is a must stop, but reserve ahead of time.
Really enjoyed the stay! The location is great for everything you could want, whether privacy, or busy Main Street in North Conway, or great hiking and swimming/tubing. Echo Lake is a 5-minute bike ride or a 15-minute walk. We only went to the lake after 6 pm, so can't comment on whether reservations are needed. Wonderful to go hiking or biking, then home for a swim at Echo Lake, then to relax on the deck or around the firepit in the yard.
Some things to know, not as a criticism in any way, but just so peeps are not surprised and therefore can enjoy their stay all the more: The 2nd bathroom is more of a composting toilet (I think) and a sink plunked into the laundry room (with brand-new-seeming washer and dryer). Totally serviceable, but I can hear the occasional teenager expressing their horror (though that's teens anyway). Also, parts of the house are dark. Absolutely appropriate to a woodsy chalet, of course. The kitchen and dining area are very well lit.
Hated to leave.
In mid-to-late summer, don't miss the fresh-picked corn at the farmstand on West Side Rd.
Like most vacation homes built a few decades ago, there are shortcomings about the home. the stairs that go upstairs and down are very narrow. The regular bathroom is very small. There is a second bathroom that is in the laundry room and that is a redeeming quality. It's large, has a rack for hanging your clothes (no closets), and has a new washer and dryer. The toilet in the laundry room for some strange reason has a grinder. So when you flush the toilet there is bubbling in the other toilet. Nothing wrong, just a bit jarring when it happens the first time. The bedrooms smell a bit musty but the upstairs does not. Had a few interactions with the property manager and he was quick to respond, easy to communicate with and very helpful. Overall, we had a great time and would return to this property.
This is a wonderful property. It's located so close to Echo Lake and the Cathedral and Whitehorse Ledges that you can easily walk to them all in a short time. The cabin is easy to get to and very clean, the deck, with the propane fire table is a beautiful space to spend time in the evening, the 3 small bedrooms downstairs were cozy, and having an extra partial bathroom downstairs in the laundry room is a game changer. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend this space for a small family. THANK YOU!!
I am an accountant and I currently live in Cambridge, MA. I grew up vacationing in the White Mountains with my family and its a tradition I would love to continue in the future! I enjoy skiing, hiking, and taking advantage of the great bars and restaurants that North Conway has to offer.
