Perfect!

LizV Middletown, NY, USA
Review Submitted: November 19, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
My friends and I had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful house during our October 2008 vacation. From the moment we walked in, we were in awe of this beautiful property. The house is immaculate and has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. It is spacious and well-equipped, beautifully decorated and in a perfect location. As photographers, we were never at a loss for beautiful, scenic locations to visit and being peak Autumn leaf season was the icing on the cake.

You will not regret one moment of choosing this location for your New Hampshire vacation. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer!
Owner's Response: Liz,
So glad you and your friends enjoyed your stay.
What a treat to have two eager photographers and a romance writer rave about their experience. I understand that Humphrey's Ledge will be featured in an upcoming novel! The pictures you shared of the waterfalls and autumn foliage were a treat.

Let me know when the novel comes out! Thanks again for taking the time to send a review. Regards, Birdy

Heaven in New Hampshire

Darlene from TX Lake Jackson, TX USA
Review Submitted: October 23, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
WOW! What a wonderful place to take in God's beauty! Thank you Birdy and Sam for sharing your beautiful vacation home with us. This grand home is so inviting the moment you step into it and is supplied with every emenity you possibly need. I can't say enough about the view from the home. Huge open windows facing Humphrey's Ledge...absolutely breathtaking! Our grandchildren loved the game room and hung out there most of the time. My husband, daughter and I played a few games of ping-pong too. Boy, we haven't done that in a while. We wanted a place with plenty of room surrounded with blissful peace. That's just what we got when we stayed at Humphrey's Ledge Mountain House. Our family can't wait to go back. Once again, Birdy and Sam, thank you so very, very much. From reading your reviews and guest book, we realized just how much you have touched so many lives by sharing your vacation home. God bless you both!

Review Submitted: August 13, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
"3 people from a small town in northern Mainem, Houlton ME to be exact made amny fond memories to be shared for a lifetime at this wonderful place. We even shared the door yard with some wildlife one night. As the grill was going and the steaks were cooking, a mother bear and her two little cubs decided to come in the yard to see what was for supper. The hardest part of it all is the quiet that sets in as we have to leave such a wonderful place. Thanks for the hospitality and all the comforts of home.


PS: and like all good vacations, the sun is truely shining as we leave. "

A great family holiday home

ChrisyT Aberdeen, Scotland, UK
Review Submitted: June 10, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We had a great week at the house. It was clean and well presented. It had everything we needed for a perfect holiday in the mountains!

The kids loved the sandbox and all the outside toys. The basement with all the inside toys was great for those rainy days. The kids loved reading all the books and were very at home!

The proximity to Storyland was great - it meant a very short journey home for our two toddlers after 7 hours at the park.

This house has lots of space and is a big three-bedroom property. The views are stunning and the deck is perfect for relaxing on a hot day.

Birdy is very welcoming and was able to suggest some great ideas to help us make the most of our time in the area. We would definitely recommend this holiday home for families looking for a home away from home!
