Review Submitted: August 31, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
I looked at a number of rentals before having the good fortune to find the perfect getaway rental. The home does present itself exactly as the pictures show and is spotlessly clean. You feel like you are staying in a friend's home vs. a rental. The owner's have absolutely thought of everything you could need. Have a small child? There's a crib, monitor, safety gate to name a few things. Teenagers? A downstairs gameroom with TV. Like to be outside? An incredible wrap around deck with a screened gazebo. A blender for Margherita's and a popcorn bowl set for movie night; we didn't want to leave.
While off the main road, it was a quick shot into town and the local deli was perfect for lunch while nearby a local favorite, Almost Home was the great for takeout the night you don't want to BBQ. The small private beach was the perfect size for our family, I didn't need to chase the young ones around a huge beach and worry constantly, they were always within reachable distance. And having a canoe was a bonus, not to mention the fact that it is kept at the beacjh and easy to access. A family friendly house close to hiking, parks, Storyland, and outlets, we definately plan to return next year.
And the Tucker's seem to geniunly care that their renters have a great stay. They are friendly and responsive.
I couldn't give this rental a higher recommendation.

Awesome!!!

Review Submitted: July 24, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
We spent the week of July 16th thru 23rd 2011 at this beautiful property....it was a wonderful house and area, and so very relaxing, which is what we were looking for. The White Mountains are gorgeous and the Conway Scenic Railroad was a fun activity...the lake was so clear and very refreshing, considering we had a rather hot week! Definitely would love to spend more time there!!

Perfect home with a great owner

Review Submitted: June 23, 2010 Date of Stay: June 2010
We enjoyed a great week of fun in New Hamshire at this ideal home. From the very first contact with the owner to the day we checked out it has been a pleasure. The house was spotless and the owner thought of everything you might need. The only surprises were pleasent ones! Everything was as described or better. The owner has made sure you have everything you need and is right there if you have a question. Our only regret is not renting it longer!
Rent with confidence. You will not be dissappointed.

nice place and very kind owner

Review Submitted: December 28, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2009
We were a large group already spent 2 days in White Mountains during this Christmas. Some of us would like to spend an extra day there, and we found this house. The owner (Linda) was kind enough to allow us to stay for just one night and check in in the morning instead of afternoon, which is their regular check-in time. After we arrived, we found it was a very comfort and neat place to stay. Everything was very well prepared and organized, just like a professional hotel. However, when we found the weather was bad on that day as well as the next day and we concerned about the road condition and safety if we leave the next day morning. So instead of staying for one night, we only had lunch there and headed for home on the same day as we arrived. We called the owner to let her know our decision on our way home. We were very pleased to know that she would only charge us for $50. Actually we received the refund the next day.
Overall, Linda is a very kind and reliable owner to deal with. It's our great pleasure to stay there, although only a couple of hours. Thanks a lot!
