Wondeful weekend

Luie Boca Raton. Florida
Review Submitted: July 15, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
I had the pleasure of spending a weekend at the Manse to celebrate a dear friend's 50th birthday. There were 12 in our party.. We arrived early on a Friday morning and stowed our food, personal items and party supplies. We had to explore the house first--what a treasure. So many awesome features from original glass in some of the windows-- 2 pantries--maid's staircase thru the kitchen area to the second floor--the wonderful wrap around porch equipped with rockers, a picnic table and lovely wicker chairs. We had the place to ourselves that night.
Saturday morning was time to get ready for the " party"-By the time the guests arrived, the place was ready--Tents had been set up on the lawn--food was in abundance ( and yummy by the way). All the party guests requested " a tour" which we happily provided.The oohs and ahs were the best. The owner was a guest by the way and was a charming lady. The band began around sunset and went on for ---a long time. We were set to leave on Sunday morning but the owner offered to allow us to stay an extra night because she said she saw how much we enjoyed her house--Talk about a lovely gesture. I only got down to the Lake for a quick trip on a friend's boat but the views of the area were very nice.
The woods provide a quiet setting for walks--I couldn't help thinking good old Walt Whitman would have been content there. I also thought how my 15 month old Grandson would have gone gaga over it.
I count my time at the Manse as one of my really good times.
Thanks so much for the experience.

Memorable and fun

Happy in Harrisville Harrisville, NH
Review Submitted: July 1, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Loved the truly New England feel and experience of our stay. The house has quite a historic feel about it. It has an outstanding and extremely large deck for gathering and taking in the incredible "dual" view of both Mt. Monadnock and Silver Lake. Lots of bedrooms (8), one with a secluded second story screended porch of it's own! Our reunion there was perfect as there was more than enough space for all. The house is fairly rustic but with detailed craftmanship at the same time. Very interesting memorable place in a quiet and relaxing setting. Silver Lake is a nice walk through the woods away. Such a lovely clear,clean lake- one of the clearest and healthiest in NH.

We would definately consider returning for another stay. It was an unforgetable place and immensly enjoyable. Any cons there may have been were far outweighed by the pros.

Very good customer service provided by the owners. They were always available when we had any questions prior to and during our stay.

Large old farmhouse

HappyHiker Northborough, MA
Review Submitted: May 27, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Pros:
Large house with a lot of really old rustic artifacts, 8 rooms, sleeps 17 easily.
Very secluded area.
Great views on the Mt. Monadnock and Silver Lake.

Cons:
The house is quite old and infested with mice. We found mice nest in one of the beds.
No linens provided.
Only one shower in one bedroom - rest bathrooms have bathtubs, some with separate faucets for hot and cold water.
The water is yellow - probably due to rusty plumbing.
Some sinks are leaky.
No internet connection whatsoever.
Poor cellphone reception.
Practically no TV.
Full cleaning and trash howling is required from the renters - see our experience bellow.

Our rental experience:
Boathouse was locked and no keys were provided. We could not use the boats.
The grill was extremely dirty, a stale bone was left under the hood.
One of the toilets would not flush (flush chain was broken).
After we left, a half of our security deposit was deducted for "too much general cleaning ... toys left around and things a bit askew".

Conclusion:
It was a nice quiet getaway even with all the issues we had. The area and the views have almost compensated for the rest. Yet, I would probably not rent this house again, nor recommend it.
