Private location with spectacular river and mountain views!

Our extremely energy efficient home is located in a very private country area with beautiful views of the Androscoggin River and the White Mountains. It's a very peaceful setting. The large deck on the back of the house looks over the river. The location is only a few miles to the picturesque town of Bethel, ME which has restaurants, gift shops, a Post Office, a pub, a grocery store, a movie theater, a mineral museum and hardware store.

The house has a master suite that includes a king sized bed, two closets, and a private bathroom. The second bedroom has a twin - that pulls out to a king, a small desk, a closet, and a TV.

The kitchen is fully stocked with everything that you will need to cook. The guest bathroom includes a shower, a vanity, a toilet, and a washer and dryer.

The open concept living area has one sofa, two chairs, a TV, a kitchen island with three stools, a dining area, and a desk area.

The total size of the house is 1400 sq. ft.

Within an hour of the house are some of the finest hiking trails, skiing, and other outdoor recreational activities in all of New England.

The house is perfect for a peaceful, romantic getaway!

Three night minimum stay.

Truly Exceptional!
What a Special Place!! Stunning view of the river. Exceptionally clean, modern and well-appointed property. Kitchen had the best and most dishes, utensils, appliances and consumable pantry items of any property we’ve stayed at. The home is a model of energy efficiency and thoughtful design. There was even a desk with a large monitor and river view for our remote work, and a 2nd desk in the one bedroom for conference calls. Home has DSL speed internet and an AT&T signal strong enough for 35 Mbps down, 10 Mbps up hotspot. Scott met us to introduce us to the property and show us around the place that he is deservedly proud of. Excellent communication and the few questions/concerns we had were immediately addressed. We were here for a working ski week - Sunday River was a 15 minute drive with ample mid-week parking close to the lodge. But, we we’re just as happy returning to this property because it was so serene and beautiful! We'll definitely be returning.

Another wonderful stay
Our second stay at Scott's place. His house is by far the nicest VRBO we have ever stayed at. It is appointed with everything we need, Scott leaves breakfast goodies which are much appreciated, and the views of the river from almost every window are spectacular and serene. The house aesthetics are a perfect balance of practical and beautiful. There are nice walks out the door, skiing and hiking is close by, as are restaurants that rival some of Portland's great eateries. The only thing that is difficult when we are there is deciding whether to linger on the couch and watch the meandering river, or head out on an adventure.

Great mountain retreat
Scott was the consummate host- he greeted us at his home to make sure we found our way-we arrived late and in the dark- and proudly showed us all the house's offerings. The house is beautifully appointed and had amazing views of the mountains and Androscoggin River with an abundance of wildlife to watch for. We loved coming back from skiing at Sunday River to a cozy home to cook and share meals together and relax! Thank you- we can't wait to visit again in a different season to see the beauty of Maine!

Memorable long weekend
One of the nicest VRBOs we have ever stayed in. Quiet, stunning views of the river, well appointed and artistically decorated house, great communication with Scott, located close to Bethel's fabulous restaurants and lots of local hiking. It's even nicer than the (already nice) photos. We hope to return soon!

Beautiful home
Beautiful property with everything we needed. Scott was very helpful. The beds were more firm than we are used to, but that was the only small negative. View from the house was gorgeous

Amazing views, peaceful and relaxing
Our first time in Maine and it was perfect. If you are looking for a beautiful home that offers peace and tranquility, this is the place! The view of the Androscoggin River can be seen from almost every window of the home. The patio also provides a serene environment overlooking the river and woods. We saw wild turkeys with their little ones daily. The home is beautiful inside, exceptionally clean, fully equipped kitchen, and the beds are very comfortable. It is your home away from home. The town of Bethel is only a few miles away and has a wonderful cafe and bakery, grocery store and the ambience of a small home town. You will not be disappointed!

Just a wonderful week
The house was beautiful. It was nice to have the owner there to great us and go over the home. Fantastic views of the river and mountains. Several local places to fish as well as right there at the house. Local places to eat and shop were a bonus as well. Just a very relaxing week. Hope to go again.
