holiday stay
House has lots of character as an older home, but also plenty of room. 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.

Great End To Summer
This is a charming farmhouse, just down the road from all you need. The place is very large and extremely clean. It is everything it is advertised to be and more. We had a great time with the grandkids roasting marshmallows, hiking around Cannon Mt., swimming at Echo Lake and playing games in the evening at the house. Thanks for great memories! Beth
