    Really good location. Solid value. Good news — quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of the North Conway strip. Mildly inconvenient news for some — quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of the North Conway strip. Breakfast was a welcome addition and enough to get you going, but not an expansive dinner bonanza.

    Nothing I didn’t like

    I love that it’s hidden in the woods. I loved it even more that the couple who owns it, built it and live in it.

    This is a great location right on The Kancamagus highway. Bed and breakfast ran by Joe and Janet. They have been here since the 80s, very knowledgeable about the area. Breakfast choices include cold cereals, hard boiled eggs and Jimmy Dean sandwiches. The rooms are very clean and spacious. You have a midsize refrigerator and microwave. Cable was good. Nice and quiet place. Well worth the stay, prices reasonable and opportunity to support a local business. No crowds, amazing outdoor property with hiking nearby.

    Breakfast is great but has somewhat limited choice of eggs and cheese: either hard-boiled eggs or heated pre-made egg, cheese and sausage sandwich. Would be nice to have more choice of eggs (e.g. scrambled eggs) and some selection of cheese and diary spread such as cream-cheese.

    Warm and welcoming reception by the owners. Owner is very involved, likes to hang-out with the guests and provide useful and detailed tips about the area. Very large and well-equipped and clean rooms. Complementary breakfast products are available all-day long at the dining room. including fruits, yogurt, juice, cereal, tea' coffee, snacks and cookies. Location is on the Kancamagus Hwy and very close to its main attractions. The property includes a private stretch of the river-bank with private trails and picnic tables, allowing you to avoid the crowd while enjoying a relaxed recreation at the Kancamagus river.

    The hotel location is ideal: on the Kancamagus Highway and very close to what North Conway town has to offer. Perfect for visiting the White Mountains. The B&B hosts are the best! They are extremely helpful, friendly, fine people. It felt delicious to be hosted by them.

    The owners are lovely and the location can't be beat. The facility itself is not at all modern, so if that is something you care about, you would probably be happier at a more modern lodge. I care about cleanliness and a comfy bed, both of which were excellent.

    There was a strong mildew odor as soon as we walked in. I was lucky my allergies didn’t act up! The property, furniture and amenities are from the late 70s and in serious need of updating. I asked for the Breakfast sandwich and it was of poor quality (frozen and reheated). The Toiletries were tiny and very cheap. The $240 a night charge is double of what it should be. I am glad we only stayed one night. Owners should engage a hotel consultant to bring the property to acceptable standards.

    Hosts were very nice.
