If you are trying to take a quiet getaway with your spouse, do not go there! We dropped our children off with the in-laws and hoped for some relaxation at the hotel and spa. I felt I was at Disney World! No matter where we went, children were screaming and running around. Even at night they were running in the... more

The wedding was amazing - they did a fantastic job and the food was excellent. The breakfast buffet was way better than average. Now, the downside: The room. We booked months in advance and we... more

Our stay was great although I suspect it would have been even better had we gone on a less busy weekend - Columbus Day weekend is one of if not the busiest in the White Mountains. The property itself is beautiful -... more
