Something Magical

We stayed a long weekend for my husband's birthday. It was absolutely perfect! The home is clean and had so many tasteful details and extras. We never wanted to eat outside the house because the kitchen (and the great food selection at the Littleton Food Coop) just made me want to cook! The view was our focus during morning coffee and evening drinks and surprisingly, we didn't get attacked by mosquitos! We even walked our kids down to the waterfall/swimming hole which was a great way to cool off in the heat of the day. At night it got cool enough to sleep comfortably with the windows open, so we never used the ACs, but its a nice thing to know they are there just in case. It was the first time in a long time that I was sad to be leaving and going home on check out day. There is something VERY special about Freeland Acres. I hope to return again and again.

Magical place for a magical weekend

We traveled to Franconia, NH to be near the 100% zone if the solar eclipse. The property was beautiful, clean and welcoming. There were 4 large bedrooms, an eat-in kitchen, 2 living areas and a big porch. We woke to the view of one of the nearby mountains and the yard was large enough for us to practice some snow shoeing. Cannon Mountain was right down the street, and we were close to Bethlehem, Littleton and Mount Washington. The owners were very communicative and even called the land line to make sure we were okay. Would definitely stay at Freeland Acres again. Thank you!

Great family get away

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving week at Freeland Acres. The house was impeccably clean, well maintained, and well stocked with kitchen equipment, linens and games. There was ample space for 6 of us - 4 adults and 2 teens. It’s very convenient to Sugar Hill, Franconia, Cannon Mtn, and, a little further, Littleton. The backyard is nice and big for playing games. It was a cold week so we didn’t get to take advantage of the lovely outdoor space much.

Return Visit to Freeland Acres

Freeland Acres never disappoints! The hosts are very helpful and always available to answer questions. This was our fifth visit to this charming country home in a sparsely populated area in the beautiful White Mountains. The house is tastefully appointed and decorated, which is warm and welcoming. Several good friends join us from several other states to enjoy hiking in Autumn color and discovering small, neighboring towns. Looking forward to our next visit!

Serene Spot

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Freeland Acres. While it's not what I would consider truly "rustic," like a camp, it does show its age. The floors definitely tilt to one side, especially in the hallway and on the porch. The internet service is spotty and there is that smell that the house has lived a full life. We find it charming, but those looking for 'modern' should look elsewhere. The views are beautiful and there is plenty of room out in the grass for kids to explore and play games and enjoy the firepit at night when it becomes chilly. It's like stepping back in time, but with the added convenience of a washer/dryer, dishwasher and frig. We loved our quiet spot and appreciated that it was within 20 minutes or so of attractions such as hiking to see waterfalls, ziplining, and horseback riding. Sweet and serene.

Nice place

Old farm house in a good location for exploring the white mtns. We enjoyed our stay, the place has most everything you need. No ac except on two bedrooms. It was hot while we were there but it cooled off quickly in the evenings. Quiet at night and you can see the stars. You do have to take the trash to the recycling center down the road and it is closed 3 days out of the week. Market nearby with a good selection of groceries.
