Charming house in perfect setting

We stayed in mid-October and loved both the house and the location. There is a great hiking nearby, and some good restaurants. The house is tastefully decorated and well supplied. Communication with the host was easy. Overall, a great stay.

A perfect location and beautiful home

We loved this house and found its location to be ideal for our trip. We especially loved sitting on the front porch rocking chairs and looking up at all of the stars and Milky Way. We would love to return and stay even longer. The nearby swimming hole is a real treasure!!

Magical mountain stay

Wonderful family vacation. We enjoyed the badminton, s’mores on the fire, rocking on the porch, playing the piano and playing clue! All in between great days out in the mountains. Great location. House very well equipped for cooking. We hope to be able to return. Thank you!

Repeat visitors

During our stay we felt very comfortable in the peaceful surroundings. The farmhouse is meticulously decorated with careful attention to detail, including framed art, antiques and piano. It has a fully-functional kitchen. Morning coffee in the front porch rockers, facing the striking Kinsman Mountain, is a delightful way to begin the day! We highly recommend Freeland Acres !

Return Visit to Freeland Acres

Freeland Acres never disappoints! The hosts are very helpful and always available to answer questions. This was our fifth visit to this charming country home in a sparsely populated area in the beautiful White Mountains. The house is tastefully appointed and decorated, which is warm and welcoming. Several good friends join us from several other states to enjoy hiking in Autumn color and discovering small, neighboring towns. Looking forward to our next visit!

Great family get away

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving week at Freeland Acres. The house was impeccably clean, well maintained, and well stocked with kitchen equipment, linens and games. There was ample space for 6 of us - 4 adults and 2 teens. It’s very convenient to Sugar Hill, Franconia, Cannon Mtn, and, a little further, Littleton. The backyard is nice and big for playing games. It was a cold week so we didn’t get to take advantage of the lovely outdoor space much.

Heaven on Earth

From beginning to end the rental process was easy. The property was very clean and had all the amenities needed for a stay. The home is packed with things to do - games in the basement and puzzles in a cabinet near the television. Every window in the house has a lovely view...and the yard is a great place to spend time to sit and enjoy the peace and nature. There's a lovely market a short distance away, and I was thrilled to find we were only a few miles from Robert Frost's home. It is easy to see why the area inspired such beautiful poetry! I only wish we had more time to stay longer - and I hope to return someday!!

Serene Spot

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Freeland Acres. While it's not what I would consider truly "rustic," like a camp, it does show its age. The floors definitely tilt to one side, especially in the hallway and on the porch. The internet service is spotty and there is that smell that the house has lived a full life. We find it charming, but those looking for 'modern' should look elsewhere. The views are beautiful and there is plenty of room out in the grass for kids to explore and play games and enjoy the firepit at night when it becomes chilly. It's like stepping back in time, but with the added convenience of a washer/dryer, dishwasher and frig. We loved our quiet spot and appreciated that it was within 20 minutes or so of attractions such as hiking to see waterfalls, ziplining, and horseback riding. Sweet and serene.

Something Magical

We stayed a long weekend for my husband's birthday. It was absolutely perfect! The home is clean and had so many tasteful details and extras. We never wanted to eat outside the house because the kitchen (and the great food selection at the Littleton Food Coop) just made me want to cook! The view was our focus during morning coffee and evening drinks and surprisingly, we didn't get attacked by mosquitos! We even walked our kids down to the waterfall/swimming hole which was a great way to cool off in the heat of the day. At night it got cool enough to sleep comfortably with the windows open, so we never used the ACs, but its a nice thing to know they are there just in case. It was the first time in a long time that I was sad to be leaving and going home on check out day. There is something VERY special about Freeland Acres. I hope to return again and again.

Magical place for a magical weekend

We traveled to Franconia, NH to be near the 100% zone if the solar eclipse. The property was beautiful, clean and welcoming. There were 4 large bedrooms, an eat-in kitchen, 2 living areas and a big porch. We woke to the view of one of the nearby mountains and the yard was large enough for us to practice some snow shoeing. Cannon Mountain was right down the street, and we were close to Bethlehem, Littleton and Mount Washington. The owners were very communicative and even called the land line to make sure we were okay. Would definitely stay at Freeland Acres again. Thank you!
