8 Reviews of Property 166669 in Portsmouth, New Hampshire

My husband and I along with two grown children had a wonderful experience at the Johnson House in Greenland. The property is clean, comfortable and has everything you could possibly need. The view is spectacular. We spent time swimming, biking, kayaking the bay and my son and husband enjoyed kayaking rivers as well. It is very relaxing and quiet. Just a short drive to Portsmouth and beaches. (The water in the bay is warmer than the beaches.) The owner, Perry, is very accommodating and helpful. I would highly recommend this property.

We stayed at the house this past weekend and had a fabulous time! The house was perfect for our annual girl's weekend. It is set back in a secluded neighborhood, quiet and beautiful view, right on the water! It was just a short distance to travel into Portsmouth center. The house had everything we could need. The beds were comfortable, it was very clean and warm. The owner was wonderful in showing us around and accomodating us. We look forward to returning again some year! Thank you!

After spending the first couple of days of a 1 week vacation in the Johnson House, my wife and I quickly came to appreciate all the work and care the owners put into this place to make it a " cozy, warm, clean, and comfortable home" to stay in. So many nice personal touches, like the books, the herb garden out front, the fully equipped kitchen, etc., etc.....Everthing you needed in a home was there.
And the location is exceptional, quiet and peaceful, nestled in the woods by a beautiful bay, yet only a very short ride to stores and other attractions.
The owners, Perry and his wife Linda, were very nice people to deal with and we appreciated their hospitality.
Our stay at the Johnson Home was a very positive experience and we highly recommend it !

The view is amazing...both from inside the cozy living room, as well as from out on the deck (no matter what the weather!) We think they have the best site on the Bay coast! Clean, well-stocked. Very attentive/personable owner who is only a phone call away. Beautiful residential neighborhood for daily dog walks. This is the only rental in the area, that's why no one's heard of it! Close to lots of fun places (Portsmouth, Ogunquit, Kittery, York, Hampton) if you're in the mood to get out...and fireplace, comfy furniture if you just want to relax. Close to lots of things, yet feels so far away! This has been our favorite place to vacation, out of 24 years of vacations, so far. We're already signed up for next year...and we have not yet returned to the same place twice, as we like variety, but the Johnson House has everything we've been looking for, at a reasonable price. Perry's boat ride added a nice touch and allowed us an even better sense of The Bay. The visitor's center made for an interesting afternoon, to learn about the unique wildlife and plant materials at the Estuary, and bird watching was plentiful. Garden with herbs, which we could cut, for cooking. Dishwasher, washer/dryer, 2 bathrooms, queen size bed. Views from every room, and verandas from the 2, second floor bedrooms. Friendly neighbors. Quiet. We stayed 2 weeks, one with family (5 of us comfortably, next year, we're going to invite 2 more); and one week alone. Perfect.

Even though we picked a week of constant rain and thunderstorms, the house and view were great. With two small children, we had all the comforts of home which was very helpful since we were indoors much of the time. The owners, Perry and Linda were terrific hosts and great people making sure we had everything we needed. We hope to go back next year and take advantage of the beautiful views when the weather is nicer!
Thanks again to Perry and Linda for an enjoyable visit and for the boat ride during the brief patch of sun. Our son can't stop talking about it!

The views are, of course, beautiful. The layout of the house is very convenient and the atmosphere very inviting. Everything we could possibly have needed was available. Highly recommended.
