Winter getaway at the Potato House
5/5 We had a lovely stay at the Potato House - it is so spacious (plenty of room for our family of 6 adults, 2 kids & 2 dogs!), nicely updated, clean and in a great location. Chris, our main contact, was very responsive and helpful during our stay! We loved looking out the window and seeing the horses, and being close to Otis Inn for amazing coffee! Great location close to the ski resorts and town, too. We will definitely be back!!!
My favorite place!
5/5 We absolutely love staying at the Potato House! The setting and home are beautiful. The host is so responsive and helpful. We are return renters and we will be back (again and again)!

Cozy Escape
5/5 The Potato House is extremely comfortable and it’s furnished beautifully. You can’t beat the location! The wood burning fireplace is the icing on the cake.

Family Fun
5/5 The Potato House fit our needs perfectly. If you are on the fence about booking this beautiful, historic home you should go ahead and book it, do not hesitate. The setting is idyllic, with beautiful horses in fenced pens surrounding you. It is a grand house, with superlative outdoor spaces. We enjoyed making smores using the fire pit.
We hosted the rest of the family for pizza night. A big hit was the actual Potato storage dining area. We played lots of games around the ample dining room table. The newly renovated kitchen and baths are beautiful. Our bedrooms were grand-the grandkids loved the papa-bear beds. The living room has the largest TV I've ever seen, and Shrek was a hit one evening.
Chris was an awesome liaison to our questions. Our host, Karen, was super accommodating. I would love to think Potato House can be in our future. Thank you!!
Fantastic Stay - Will book again!
5/5 The Potato House is charming and cozy, with luxury details. It is also the cleanest rental I have had the pleasure of staying in. The kitchen and bathrooms are newly renovated with high-end finishes and appliances, and all bedding is immaculately clean and comfortable.
The hosts were attentive to any questions and needs.
The grounds are very well-kept, and the views of the horses in the pastures are picturesque. It is a very peaceful location, and the drive to downtown is only 5-7 minutes. Thornhill Nature Preserve is just down the road, which is a wonderful short hike to the beach. Pond Hill Farm is another very close spot that is a must-visit for lunch or dinner.
We will definitely stay again.
