Guests are welcome to use the backyard, patio, and deck on the back of the house. The owners of the property do live across the street. They operate their home business on the same property, although none of the space is shared, we ask what you leave some space at the top of the driveway.

We ask that Airbnb guests park on the upper section of the driveway.

This home is fully equipped and manicured to accommodate a large family or group of guests. There is a large backyard with a hot tub on the deck. The fireplace on the deck adds a nice ambience for those summer nights and BBQs. The home layout provides ample space for people to cook, relax, and entertain guests.

Plenty of parking in the driveway, but we have some restrictions to keep the owner's business entrance next door clear. Information will be provided in the guidebook and check-in instructions.

There is a $60 per pet per night fee at this property. Please add your pets to your reservation at the time of booking. We do allow pets but ask that they be leashed when outside as the road is very busy with traffic. We also ask that the animal be walked to the woods to do its business. We take great pride in our landscaping and would like it to remain pristine for everyone.

We love to host Bach groups, dinners and reunions etc. We can even do weddings! We have an in-house event manager who can assist you with planning and catering. When we host an event, we do ask for some additional verification and a security deposit from our partners, Superhog.

My family stayed here for a week and had a lovely time. Space is great for families, with a large backyard, grill, hot tub, and convenient location to spend time in Meredith. Hosts were easy to work with and accommodating. One thing to know (mainly if you have young kids) is the basement bedrooms with twin beds feel a bit separated from the upstairs, as they are downstairs and through a utility room. But overall, great place and would recommend.

Our family enjoyed our week at this lovely home in December. The fireplace and hot tub provided endless enjoyment, the house was well appointed, and Ashely, the host, was very responsive and offered great suggestions as to where to explore!
