I loved the different building and that they all had balconies.
We were there for a wedding in town and our family had different units. Understand the indoor pool, but I prefer the outdoors when swimming. Kids loved the pool though. Too nice to be indoors when we were there.

While the property had a nice heated pool, saunas for men and women, and was tucked in a nice area, the property is older. As a lite sleeper, I heard everything. The beds are a bit worn too.
Staff was friendly and great with suggestions of where to eat and shop.

We had a great stay at this hotel! Perfect little place with everything you need. Coffee was available in the room and downstairs by the desk and the room we stayed in had a fridge, microwave, stovetop, and all the cookware and glassware you need. It's definitely an older property but that is what gives it it's charm. Our TV did not work in our room but was not a huge deal. Front desk staff were kind and flexible. Would absolutely stay again and use the pool next time, it closes at 9p.

The Staff was very friendly, the building and grounds were dated but in good condition. On papaer it looked the docks were on or near the main buildings but they were 1.5 miles away.
the smoking area was between our room and the parking lot. So it seemed there was always someone sitting or standing there smoking when we walked back and forth from the car, which was uncomfortable

We go there 2-3 times a year. Same people. Always friendly. There is a golf course behind the hotel that allows outsiders to dine there too.

A lovely old inn w/ real New Hampshire charm, with more modern motel-like additions in back. My room was spacious and well-appointed. No problem recommending.

Dirty, musty, dark, walls, doors filthy. Bed had 4 long black hairs. I don’t know what they use for cleaning solutions but I would say maybe they just used water. So tired of these dirty hotels. All done with vrbo, Expedia and all these other sites that promote how wonderful and clean these hotels & houses are. So tired of traveling with my own cleaning products.
