End of summer vacation

Had a wonderful week using the property as a springboard for kayaking, hiking and shopping. Enjoyed grilling on the deck, cooking indoors and roasting marshmallows and hotdogs at the oversized fire pit. Several fantastic nights for stargazing. Also enjoyed a couple quiet nights making use of the TV downstairs and game room.

Winter Wonderland

It felt like a cabin straight from a Hallmark movie. It was cozy, comfy and spacious. The fireplace, decor, game room, huge deck and wonderful sledding hill made us feel right at home. The firepit and the swing by the river and the river itself was very relaxing even in the very cold weather. Linda the Host and David the caretaker were both warm and friendly people. Linda reached out to us to make sure we got settled in and all was comfortable. We didn't want to leave!

Beautiful Property - Rustic meets Modern

This property is a gem of a place to stay. Linda and her caretaker provided a seamless check-in process and tons of helpful suggestions for activities. The property is immaculate and has all the modern amenities one could need. All this in a rustic log cabin type setting with an incredible layout with many common areas for group activities and other areas offering solitude and privacy. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their visit. Looking forward to staying here again!

What a beautiful spot!

We have stayed in many house rentals and this place is at or near the top of the list! As others have said in their reviews, the photos don't do it justice. The architecture and quality workmanship of the house is beautiful. The combination of that along with the size and beauty of the property is what makes it unmatched in our travels. The array of entertainment, inside and out, is fantastic. David, the property manager, stopped by to see if we had any questions and later, when questions came up, was very quick to respond. We highly recommend this property!

Perfect place for a family vacation!

Linda’s home is a spacious and beautiful place right on the lovely Saco River. The attention to detail and abundance of amenities is top notch. Due to the high water levels this year we opted to book our trips on the river with the owners of On the Saco Family campground to ensure we remained safe and they were phenomenal just like Linda recommended! During normal conditions we probably would never have have left and just accessed the river from the backyard. The outdoor games and fire pit and the indoor games and movie room filled our days and nights with lots of family fun. We hope to come back again soon!

Girls week

We were a group of 7 lifetime friends celebrating our 65th birthdays. The house is fairly remote from towns, and it was a little difficult to find as there were no house numbers or other identifying markers on a rural road. However, the pictures do not do it justice. The location is absolutely beautiful and the owners have spent a great deal of thought and time into turning the property into a virtual waterside playground. The house itself is stunning and everything was clean and in good working order. Linens and towels were abundant and the kitchen was also very well stocked. We swam off the dock in the chilly Saco in mid Sept. We were blessed with sunny days and cool nights. North Conway, Bridgton, and the Kangamagus Highway are all within reasonable driving distance. The caretaker met us there and gave us a tour, and was available by text with any questions we had. Would highly recommend this property, heeding the owners descriptions of the childrens rooms and lofts, as the former are really meant for small humans and the lofts are not for the faint of heart!

This rental was one our best so far! The house is fantastic with lots of room for multiple families. Check-in was easy, the kitchen is well equipped and the entire place was very clean! The grounds are also quite impressive. From the firepit to the large deck and down the path to the river, it's a perfect place to play or relax. We will definitely keep this place on our list to stay again...maybe next time in the winter!

Family River Fun

Beautiful large home right on the Saco river. The house inside and out was loaded with things to do, i.e., tree fort, fishing, swimming, ping pong table, pool table, arcade, fire pit, huge deck , We brought our kayaks and large 12 person rubber raft and had a blast on the river. Also, for a day trip, 40 minutes to StoryLand. We will definitely return.

Incredible house and location

The post and beam house is INCREDIBLE and decorated to a tee. The location on the Saco was great for fishing and kayaking - and close to North Conway. We highly recommend this place for anyone looking to get away but still have plenty to do.
