Hiram on the Saco
Beautiful spot right on the Saco. Feels very private, but you’re half an hour or less from multiple town centers. Very pretty spot. We would rent again.

The River House
What a beautiful home! Amazing views, lovely trails! Wish I had a horse to take full advantage of all the property! It wasn’t warm enough to swim but the river is so peaceful! We recommend going to Cornish to look at antiques. Bring a kayak if you’ve got one! Would definitely go back!

Beautiful!
We absolutely loved our stay at The River House. It was everything we have been looking for in a vacation- access to water, the woods, nature, and a cozy house. The house is well appointed and thoughtfully laid out. Beds are comfy and rooms are spacious. Make sure to bring your own toilet paper, paper towels and sponge. The house is situated off a busy road down a long driveway. You can hear the traffic so if you’re looking for silence this isn’t the place for you. It didn’t bother us in the least and the access to the woods & river more than made up for it. We will definitely be back!

Peaceful
The River House was the perfect size for our family of 4! We didn’t even need to use the bedroom downstairs! Having 2 bathrooms was wonderful! The view to the river was beautiful! The trails were well kept and easy to get around. It was a wonderful stay if you are looking to get away from the city! A little far from everything but that was the point! Thank you SO much!

Beautiful property
The home was great but the property was the real winner! We had such a great time letting our dogs run, play, and swim in the Saco. Our kiddo had a blast with all the space to run! The whole family enjoyed playing in the water! The only thing we noticed that was a concern was broken glass scattered along the walk down to the dock. Definitely hope to stay here again next year.
