Clean, cozy and room for all

Owner was generously communicative. House is loved and property is easy to navigate. Plenty of kitchen implements to get creative. The river is a great place to soothe aching feet after long travel days.

Love the River House!!

This place is a dream. Literally right on the river as described. Easy to hike, fish, or just sit on the river. You can hear the river from the house while sleeping and it is just amazing. We had a large group and were very comfortable in all the spacious rooms. The hosts were very friendly and accomodating. We will definitely come back!

Lasting memories.

The home is wonderful for a group. As a family we enjoyed dinners on the porch, games and cards on the large table as well as coffee down by the stream in the morning. Tons of space and everyone could spread out. Close to our day trips we had planned. Our family made lasting memories in this lovely comfortable home.

Wonderful family stay

The home was wonderful for our family for the long weekend and the brook was a perfect spot for hanging out. We enjoyed the large table for meals. My daughter didn't want to leave she loved the home so much! The home isn't as open as the pictures look, but is still a great place for a large group. My mother-in-law struggled a bit navigating the home especially to the bathrooms because of her mobility challenges. There were lots of towels but not enough sheets for the pullout couch. All and all a great place to stay and we would book again!!

Enjoyed the area

First the absolute good - this was a large property with room for our six person party to spread out and spend time together as well as enjoy their own personal space. The beds were very comfortable and the property manager was accommodating of a late request for an early check in. The river and sounds of it are beautiful - it was really nice to have the sounds and the area around to explore. Prior to check-in there were a LOT of communications about rules etc - most of which seemed to result from prior poor experiences with visitors. It made us a little uneasy about our choice and upcoming stay. The problem neighbor wasn’t really a problem if you were a normal person acting reasonably on a property - we found them pleasant enough. Upon arrival, we were disappointed at the state of the screen porch which we had intended to use pretty extensively. Due to dirtiness from pollen and a smaller grill than pictured (small Weber not large grill), we were unable to utilize this space. The owner did indicate this was due to being out of season and would be addressed for future visitors. Also the property photos seem to be dated, all is considerably more worn and there are signs about numerous broken pieces of furniture or out of use items throughout. Things just need a touch up and some care and this would be resolved. We felt the property manager was receptive and responsive to concerns as raised. One other note for anyone who might visit the area in June - check to see if it is Laconia Bike Week. Apparently this is every year in June and it was a significantly different experience of the town than it would have been when bike week wasn’t going on. A number of businesses closed, changed hours, etc due to this event. Overall our visit was pleasant, the owner was helpful and we appreciated having the space. This afforded us the opportunity to gather in a way we would not have been able to at a hotel.

Fabulous!

Loved this rental! Although we were there during a record cold snap and snowstorm we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home is very spacious and perfect for a larger group of adults with enough bedrooms with full size or larger beds where you don't need to "bunk" with other couples. The owner was super accommodating and responsive to all our inquiries. Would definitely consider renting this property again!

Great family home

Lovely summer house, with plenty of space for our family group (grandparents, parents and children). The stream across the driveway is closer than it appears in the photos and as we had small children and the water level was high and moving fast from recent rains that was a cause of concern. But, we had a fantastic time and found the house and its location in New Hampshire perfect for our gathering.

Picture were deceiving.

The house looks better in the picture than in Actuality. Very old house. Doors to bath room did not close or lock , some of the beds that were supposed to be Available were broken . We got charge a lot of money for house cleaning yet we had to clean before leaving. The house manager Bryan was supper nice. Sorry for the chopped up review I’m trying not to be not nice. I was not happy for the amount we pay for the house to be what it was.

Roomy enough for ALL us ladies.

We had our First Annual Ladies weekend here and it was perfect! The kitchen was large enough for all of us to cook a special dinner together, living room big enough to have a fun little fashion show and sleeping arrangement varied enough that everyone basically got the bed of their choice. The location was centrally located with our choice of wading in the river or Bear camp beach. Oh, and did I mention singing and smores by the fire pit, farmers market, the Dessert lady down the street (YUM!), the outlet shopping, etc The only complaint I heard was that it was time to go home. With the Corona Virus all of us had basically been isolating. This was such a gift to spend time with our love ones that we had been missing so much. Thank you.

Great place, ominous check-in

The place was great. It was nice, clean, large, and well-maintained. It was dark when we arrived, however, and we couldn't see the number on the house, so we weren't sure we were at the right place. Since it was completely dark, it felt ominous, especially since we might have been wandering into the wrong house in the middle of the night.

Smelled of sewage and firewood

The pros: This home is functional and is in a good spot to feel like you're getting away from it all without actually being far from civilization. There are plenty of beds and couches so 10 guys can have their own sleeping situation without resorting to air mattresses on the floor. (A huge plus when doing a men's retreat!) The cons: OH the smell! It smelled of sewage the whole time we were there, despite covering every vent we could find. I can only be thankful that it was Wintertime. I can't imagine this place in the Summer. And, for the cost, one would think that firewood could be provided. Not that it would matter much, the fireplace is located in the tiniest room in the house so, if you've got 10 people staying there, not everyone would get to enjoy it. So don't count on the ambiance of a crackling fire to fill the place with warmth. (Not to mention that the TV is in that room as well. So if you're planning on watching a movie together, plan on being a bit cramped.)

Great house for family reunion

10 of us stayed at this property over the Christmas Holiday. It is spacious, comfortable and bright. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need for cooking and eating. The location was difficult to find, probably because of SIRI being lost and confused. Also the picture looks like the house is off by itself and it is not, it is right on the road, very little parking. There is an abundant amount of sunlight that shines through the many windows in the living area. (shades may be beneficial in the mornings) There are room darkening blinds in the bedrooms, but not in the common area on the second floor.

Exceptional Rental in the South Tamworth, NH Area

Stayed at this wonderful property during the Columbus Day weekend - it was all that we could have hoped for, and more! Superb location, beautiful setting, spacious, great homey atmosphere and great amenities! Owner (Eric) and care-taker (Gina) were more than helpful and responsive. The River House was an unforgettable home-base for family and friends for my daughter's wedding - and we will be sure to schedule a return rental in the future!
