Extremely clean, room smelled clean. Besides that what I loved was the fact that you have grills available to you, there are benches near the river, they have a fire pit you can use, they supply the wood, and there is a good size pool too. They have corn holes, and a volley ball net. The grounds are beautiful and nicely maintained. They provided a light breakfast of muffins, cereal bars, orange juice and fruit cups. My only advise is pick a room on the 2nd floor because you can hear your upstairs neighbors. Thankfully by 10pm they quieted down. I highly recommend it!

My husband and I stumbled upon this gem after we were stood up from another hotel (Stonybrook). In…read morea quick nutshell, we booked a room with Stonybrook via expedia.com Stonybrook gave away our room, which incidentally was the last room they had. But this isn't about them... this is about the wonderful Hillwinds Lodge and how they saved the day! Thank God for good hearted people. My husband drove into Hillwinds Lodge and with big hopes and crossed fingers, he went in to see if they had any available rooms - rooms that didn't cost an arm and a leg. Much to our delight, the couple who run the place were very kind, light hearted and accommodating. Not only did they offer us a room with a view of the creek, they also honored the price of the room that expedia advertised from the "other" hotel. We are sitting comfortably in our room and cannot wait to get up tomorrow morning to see the view and enjoy the sights. The hotel is very charming, with adirondack chairs in front of each room and a fire pit ready to go out in the common area and of course the babbling creek right across from our room. We are so grateful and delighted that we found Hillwinds Lodge!

A Hidden Gem in New Hampshire!…read more I can't say enough good things about this charming little motel! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family by the sweetest couple who clearly pour their hearts into every detail. The rooms are spotless, the beds are incredibly comfortable, and there are thoughtful, homey touches throughout that make it feel more like a cozy guesthouse than a motel. Everything about our stay was simply perfect. If you're looking for a place that's full of character, comfort, and genuine hospitality, this is it. We can't wait to come back!

We ride our motorcycles from metro Boston and whenever we arrive--in the rain, the cold, the dark, the garage door opens for us. From hot tea to wine with cheese and crackers or a bucket of ice--John asks what we'd like. In the morning we bring a carafe of Peet's coffee up to our sunrise room overlooking the presidential mountains before sitting down to a four course breakfast. Fresh fruit cup, a yogurt parfait with berries, a waffle ( a pitcher of warm maple syrup ), finishes with eggs Benedict. The veranda provides plenty of comfortable seating for reading and reflection--or enjoying a beverage. The Victorian is truly a restorative place that encourages relaxation and conversation--with little effort you can plan your day's activities of hiking, cycling, or site seeing.

I suggest that room as it isn't close to the common living room, compared to first for rooms. Not that it matters, that place is silent, as all guests were respectful. The owners cook an amazing breakfast, that is quite a delight. Fresh baked cookies are available every afternoon and I ate my weight in them. The outdoor hot tub was a huge perk for us as was the billiards table and scrabble game. Every night they stoke a roaring fire in the wood stove. Perfect for when you come in from being outside. They offer free snow shoe gear to borrow, so naturally we took advantage and hiked outside on the trails. This place is 25 min from Muddy paws dog kennel to go sledding. Do it! It's amazing. While nearby restaurants are limited, what is around, is good. We loved this place. We will return.

No one answers the phone, and when they finally return your voicemail, they're angry. When you check in, they're mad at you. Talk to them, at any time of the day, they're cold and short. Are very clearly irritated to deal with any guests. Ask them a question about where to park, they roll their eyes and treat you like you're an alien. Like dude, you just bought a literal motel and cottage spot?!?! Which is for having people around? Why you so mad about it? Like, what did we do?! We are good guests! Sorry guys. Probably our last stay here. Spider-filled now, not as clean as it was, but the prices are higher. there is zero of the welcoming feeling that brought us here in the first place. Can't recommend.

The Seven Dwarfs is on a road a mile away from the main road and that REALLY makes a difference. If you're looking for a quiet place to relax and enjoy yourself, stay here. I stayed in the "Happy" suite. King bed. Entry room that was separate from room with the bed & seating. Entry room had a mini fridge & a place to hang coats and clothes. AC in my room as well. They cleaned my room the next day. They have bigger units with kitchenettes as well as a jacuzzi suite. The owners have been running this place for 35 years and have a lovely dog. This place has manicured grounds and flowers so wonderful you can smell them the second you step outside. They have a play area for kids, horse shoe toss, a volleyball net, walking trails, BBQ, fire pit, picnic area (the last 3 overlook a river which you can swim in. The river was low when I was here but I still went in and when I sat down it was chest height.) They also have a screened in area with a picnic table if it happens to be buggy. Plenty of outdoor seating. Bring your own fire wood. Also, bring your own firewood if you book a room with a fireplace. They don't sell it here anymore, but you can buy it down the road at Fosters. I did & it wasn't a hassle at all. You can hear the river from your room and it's so relaxing. I can't stress enough how much of a difference not being on the main road makes. The serenity of the Seven Dwarfs really made this trip. Their website says they offer a breakfast, but the owner said they no longer do that (like they no longer have fire wood here) because it's just he & his wife running the place and he's getting older and has to work nights. When I heard him say that, I really wasn't disappointed at all. I mean, stuff like having to drive down the road for food might seem like an inconvenience to some people, but you're staying in northern NH. Part of the draw is the down to earth community. If you want to stay in some bourgeoisie hotel chain, maybe the Twin Mountains area isn't for you. Anyways, there are many other places to eat for cheap around here, and my room had a fridge. You can always stay in a unit with a kitchenette if you want to make yourself food Like another user said, the theme is cute and kitsch without going overboard. This motel isn't cabin style, but I had neighbors on either side of me and I couldn't hear them at all. It felt secluded and very cosy. If you're unsure of whether to stay here or not, I'd suggest coming by and checking it out for yourself. The pictures on their site don't do it justice.

I called 5 other places and they were all booked up not to mention 250 a night. I've stayed here before on hiking trips simply because it's cheap. The location is perfect, a mile off the main road nestled into the twin mountains. Huge play area for kids to run free and a playground that my daughter loved. A short walk down a wooded path leads you to a beautiful river front and BBQ area. There is a screened in picnic area here as well. Great for just hanging by the river and then heading back to the room. The free range chickens running around kept my daughter busy for a few hours. The room was large and the bed was comfortable. It's dated. Very dated , but like I said it's 76 bucks for the night. It wast dirty, just old. I cooked lunch in the kitchen and the full size fridge was key. My only complaint was the room was a little smelly. I can do old, but not smelly. Time to replace carpets and a few other upgrades to get people coming back. Overall. My daughter had a blast, running around the huge yard, swinging on the horse swing, and playing in the river. Peaceful, quiet and cheap. I enjoyed it, if the room didn't smell I'd bring my family back for sure.
