We enjoyed staying at this historic home! Communications with the owner were easy and house was as-advertised. Views were gorgeous and home was peaceful. Weâd love to come back!
We came from Florida for our daughterâs wedding and this location was not only convenient to the venue but a lovely place to stay. The property manager was extremely helpful and help make our stay great.
Our stay was lovely! We had some issues with check in that ultimately got resolved, and the property was gorgeous, clean, and private. I honestly wish we had spent more time in and around the house as itâs completely beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
The property for our stay was quite nice, and it was everything we really needed for the days that we stayed there. The house had a cozy feel to it that was a highlight of our trip.
My husband, brother-in-law, and I stayed at the Cottage for two nights while attending a wedding at Cobb Hill. The location was absolutely ideal, much closer to the wedding venue than the hotels where most other wedding guests were staying. The Cottage is charming, clean, and quiet. Linens were unscented, which is unusual for a VRBO - much appreciated. Only a week before our stay, I asked Tom whether it was too late to add the extra space above the garage to our request (for an additional fee, as advertised). Tom rushed to open the extra space for the season and ensured that the broken shower was fixed on time. Further, our extended family (adult cousins and a couple small children) were having a very hard time finding a place to gather for a few hours before the wedding. I asked Tom whether it was okay for everyone to gather at the Cottage, and he promptly agreed to it. Tom is an incredible host - kind and very easy to communicate with. I cannot speak highly enough about this experience. Thank you, Tom.
Had a wonderful stay in an authentic antique, well- maintained and appointed home. Charming, with beautiful sweeping views to Mt Monadnockâs summit, this home is comfy, bright and tranquil with lots to do just a few minutes away. Thank you Tom, for your terrific hospitality.
Peaceful well-equipped home with full view of Mt Monadnock. Close enough to see hikers summiting with binoculars and occasional eagle soaring in between. Loved our stay as did our family. Tom was immediately available throughout the process. Thank you for sharing your lovely property with us!
I got married on a lake nearby and booked Tom's cottage for my immediate family to stay at and take morning-of getting ready photos. They turned out absolutely stunning and the lighting in the garage studio was perfect for my sisters and I to get ready together.
Tom was incredibly responsive and helpful during the stay as well. The July heat was tough, but it cooled down significantly overnight. The house staying a bit cooler than the loft, but a few fans fixed it easily.
And, to top it off, the view of Monadnock from the yard was unbelievable.
Very nice property with excellent views, close to the lake and outstanding amenities throughout the property. We enjoyed the fire pit, super comfortable beds and loved the well appointed kitchen. It was also nice to have a good number of chargers throughout the house. The check in and check out process was easy and straight forward and the communication from the host was very good throughout the stay. While we did not have any problems during our stay, he made it very clear that he was available for any questions about the property. We loved out visit, and wold definitely book this property again in the future. Thanks for sharing your wonderful home!!
My husband and I actually came down with sickness and we're not able to make the trip. Husband felt sick the day before we were supposed to leave to head to Tom's place. It got progressively worse and we realized we couldn't make it. The host graciously refunded us part of our money back even though it was within our stay window. Hopefully we will be able to stay at Tom's place next time!
If the rate had been higher, I might've given this listing 4 stars. But, given the affordability, I'm happy to give the full 5 stars. It is a serene location with a stunning view. The heating system is very loud (being from the area, we are not strangers to loud radiant heat, but this was LOUD!) and the bathroom could be brought up to the standards of the rest of the house. Again, nitpicking at $175/nt. We had a lovely snowstorm right on cue. :^)
This property just needed a bit of love and care but could be great. The cleaning crew didn't do the work they needed to and it wasn't in the shape we expected and we needed to clean when we arrived. The owner was very responsive and tried to support us but couldn't get anyone to the property for a short, weekend visit.
Home was nice for our purposes. Definitely showing its age though. The toilet in the main house needs help. The fridge leaked quite a bit while we were there. But the kitchen had most everything you need and the beds were comfortable. The tv had major connection issues and was not reliable. The view though was stunning and the fire pit is lovely.
Perfect country cottage for a weekend! We added the extra apartment for our party of 4. Excellent location, as alumni of Keene State College - it was close for a day trip to Keene. The fire pit was fun and the view was fantastic! Tom was an excellent host!
Mount Monadnock holds a special place in our familyâs history, and this cottage was the perfect base from which to explore the mountain and the surrounding area. We spent our evenings basking in the warmth of the fire-pit and the glow of the mountain at sundown. The beautiful period furnishings and fixtures of the cottage reinforce the feeling of connection with the history of this special place. We feel privileged to have been able to share it.
We were in NH for a family funeral. We were unable to find hotel rooms. And looked into renting this property. Tom went out of his way to make the home ready for us
So happy we're we all able to stay together at this lovely home. It was comfy and welcoming, as though we were at one of our own homes. It offered a beautiful view of the mountains and we really enjoyed chatting around the fire pit each night. Would totally come back again. Thank you, Tom, for your hospitality and willingness to make this work!
We had a wonderful time at this property. The house is large and comfortable and the location is perfect for exploring the Monadnock region. The view of Mount Monadnock from the house is spectacular. We look forward to visiting again.
Took my spouse and 3 kids here (1 slept on the couch), and really enjoyed the winter weather and beautiful views of Mount Monadnock. The yard has a good sledding hill, though be prepared for some wintry driving conditions in the driveway. We skied at Crotched Mountain during our stay, which was a 30-35 minute drive. The kitchen setup was well-appointed with everything we needed to prep meals. Would definitely stay again in any season!
