From a Trip Advisor review:
Outside the air is pure and perfect for a walk around the grounds, inside there is a wealth of books to explore or simply sit with a cup of coffee and marvel at the view. There is so much to do in the area. We were on the slopes in no time, experiencing some great skiing…and then there was the outlet shopping in North Conway. Our daughters were in heaven! Snowmobiling and a snowshoe trek are on the cards for our next visit!
On the property are outbuildings for storage and maintenance, and a wood-burning furnace that further reduces the carbon footprint. A wealth of equipment is included in the sale. A detailed list will be provided.
