We had a wonderful stay in Alton Bay. The house was warm and cozy and all of the amenities we needed. There were also several thoughtful touches, like a bowl of snack size chips, as well as toiletries and even robes. The hot tub was amazing after a day of skiing. The host, Israel was very communicative, friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this home in any season! We will definitely be back.

Relaxing stay on a quiet road with a nice view of the lake. We skied at Gunstock which is about 15 minutes away. Host is easy to communicate with and there were a lot of extra little touches in the house. Everything was very clean. Thanks for a great stay!
