Summary: I rented this for 3 weeks. Michael was a great contact and is very quick to respond when you have a question. We didn’t spend a lot of the days in the house and we were exhausted when we got there each night, but it was a fun place to hang out in the evenings. Thanks for a great stay.

Summary: We walked the property, looked at the maple syrup taps, old foundation and went sledding. Our daughter is renting on Crystal lake and she came to sled too. House was beautiful. We poked our heads into the basement and garage barn! What a history lesson.

Summary: The Story Homestead was a wonderful place to stay for our family's autumn getaway to NH. We loved exploring the surrounding countryside, which was ablaze with fall colors. The kitchen was well-equipped for preparing family meals, and the spacious bedrooms ensured everyone had a comfortable stay. A truly memorable experience - highly recommended!

Summary: It’s a great property and we had a blast (two families with toddlers). The staircase is very steep but there’s plenty of room downstairs and outside to roam and play. The beds were comfortable and ACs in every room. Great place for a relaxing rural vacation.

Summary: The Story house had plenty of historical charm and we appreciated that the owner shared the history of the house's original owners. We had to cut our stay short because of a work obligation and the owner was gracious about the change, offering a refund for the time we weren't using the space.
