Summary: This was our second time staying. The home was just as beautiful as we remembered it from last year. Exceptionally clean. Well stocked. Communication with the owner was great (again), she’s very responsive. We love the peaceful location and the deck. We also love that it’s a short drive to many different fun things to do. Hour house escape room was a lot of fun. Kellerhaus is always a must-stop for us. Franconia Notch is worth the drive. Castle in the Clouds was beautiful too.
