Summer Get Away

We were very happy with the location. The house is beautiful and enough yard space for kids to play. We enjoyed several meals on the large deck and enjoyed the screened in porch on a rainy night. We had enough space for our group to all have bedroom space. Close to Clark’s Bears and Lincoln Center and not a bad trip to Santa’s Village (45 mins) Claire was a pleasure to work with and we would gladly rent from her again

Amazing stay/attentive hosts in a beautiful, beautiful area

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at Claire's property. From the get go, she was super responsive to any questions or needs. The house was very comfortable for 6+ people w/ an amazing kitchen and outdoor deck/screened deck area. It was our first time in the Lincoln/Franconia area as well, and the state park was only a 10-15 minute drive and amazing (particularly as the leaves changed colors!). Would definitely rent this place again!

Relaxing Getaway

Our family of 8 stayed at this beautiful cabin a few weeks ago, and every single one of us were heartbroken to leave on our last day. There is plenty of space for everyone to have their own area, but also a very comfortable basement and dining room that accommodated all of us to have meals and play games. We will absolutely be staying here again in the future. Thank you Claire for sharing your beautiful home.

Beautiful Cabin

This cabin was beautiful and easily accommodated our 10 person golf trip. With 2 pull out couches, a sectional in the basement and another couch in the living room, there was hardly anyone sharing a bed. Quiet area, with a nice private yard, but easy access to the highway. There were 2 golf courses less than 15 min from the cabin. It’s also located near plenty of hiking trails in the white mountains, a river for fishing, and a disc golf course.

Issue with the Owner

The property is nice enough, though because it's right on Route 3 it often gets loud in the middle of the night with trucks going by. Also, there is a snow mobile trail right behind the house, which is also loud. The real issue, though, is the owner and her lack of fair dealings. My wife, two kids and I rented this property for a month. One morning during the second week, the carbon monoxide alarm started going off. We tried to get in touch with the owner all day, but she did not respond. Finally, that night we had to vacate and drive two hours home; we did not want to wake up dead! The owner finally got back to us the next day and did fix the problem the next afternoon, by which time it was too late to drive back to the house and so we missed two nights there. It turns out it was a faulty alarm. We could not use the house because of a potentially dangerous situation, but the owner thinks that because it turned out not to be dangerous that she does not owe us a refund for the two nights that we had to leave. I cannot figure out how she thinks we should have known that there was no carbon monoxide in the house such that I should have stayed there with my family. When the alarm goes off you have to assume it is dangerous, right? Even so, I was willing to let this go, but then after our stay the owner decided to keep most of our security deposit saying we scratched the floor. First, I think she is making this up, but even if we did, it’s a problem that a bottle of Old English Scratch Repair would fix. Again, aside from it being loud at times because of the trucks and snowmobiles, it is a nice enough property. It just feels like this owner took advantage of us, which is why I gave it a low rating.

Relaxation Station Done to Perfection

Myself and a few friends all try and gather every few years and catch up, tell stories, and relax. What a perfect venue for this (or other) pursuits. While we felt the need to go nowhere, the comforts of this home made the weekend perfect. For the comfortable beds and seating to the beautiful back deck with fireplace, to the kitchen that had all we needed, the place is simply wonderful. The hostess was wonderful in our pre-trip communication and I am certain if we needed her, she would have come through in a jiffy. While we did not wander much, two nearby towns we visited for supplies were classic New England charm and as we traveled there during foliage season, the views, even from the road, of the mountains glorified by color were breathtaking! Thank you Claire for making such a beautiful home and for opening it to us. Memories were made 😃

Wonderful stay in the Thornton, NH/ White Mountains area

My family and in-laws (total 6 adults & 2 children) had a wonderful and relaxing stay in Claire's beautiful NH home! The property has all the modern comforts surrounded by the beautiful charm of the White Mountains area/lakes nearby (short driving distance away)! The kids enjoyed the pool table in the basement & Netflix (which we don't have in our home) in the evening hours after outdoor activities during the day :) The house is spacious, clean, and provided plenty of space for our family gathering. The full kitchen with most of the basic kitchen/housewares allowed us to cook family meals a few nights, and we also enjoyed dining out in some of the restaurants around the Loon Mountain area. Check-in & check-out was a breeze. 5-stars for this house rental!! Claire is a great host and communication was fantastic!!

Beautiful Home, Wonderful Stay!

This is a gorgeous house -- so convenient to the highway and lots of hiking, skiing, and even water sports! We stayed with a group of friends for a long weekend and made the most of the space, enjoying the front porch, fire pit, and well-equipped kitchen! Claire was a huge help answering questions before our arrival and suggesting local activities. Would absolutely recommend!

Claire’s home was beautiful and had plenty of room for my family of adult children. Claire did a wonderful job of communicating and also provided great recommendations for restaurants and activities. The location was super convenient to major highway, yet tucked far back from the road to feel private. Unfortunately it was extremely hot and humid while we were there, so not having a/c in all the rooms was a bit uncomfortable, but in normal Mountain temperatures I’m sure it would have been perfect. I would definitely recommend this VRBO.

About the host

Hosted by Claire

We're a small creative family of three who grew to love the white mountain region over the years. It was the perfect retreat from our busy city lives. We started this endeavor when it was just the two of us, now husband, wife and child. Our family enjoys to travel and endure all of life's experiences to the fullest. We look forward to sharing our, "Happy Place" with all of you in hopes that you will create fond memories of our beloved region.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property before we even stepped foot through the door. When that moment did happen we knew immediately that this was the home for us! The open floor plan allows family and friends to gather together in three separate spaces, but has access to other levels if privacy is needed. The exterior has plenty of outdoor space to relax or run around and play games! Each season in the white mountain region comes with new experiences and activities for all! This home has and will continue to be a meaningful place for us and hopefully our visitors!

What makes this property unique

We are centrally located between North Woodstock/Lincoln and Waterville Valley/Campton. The location of the home is close to the highway for easy access, but without the disturbance of highway noise. There are so many areas to explore north and south of the property, but if you feel like staying in and relaxing, there is plenty of room for that too.
