Fodor's Review:

To see this house is to believe in fairy tales. Built in 1862 by Sam Bemis, America's grandfather of landscape photography, the house conveys mountain charm on a scale unmatched in New England. It's simply a legenday setting, in Crawford Notch, in the middle of the forest surrounded by the mountains: perhaps drop any cute house here and you couldn't but fall in love. But to their credit, innkeepers Les Schoof and Ed Butler have left wood-burning fireplaces in every room (17 in total in the house) and do everything else you'd hope for, like having a big library, leaving puzzles around, serving five-course meals, and giving range of the place to Abby and Crawford, the immense Bernese Mountain inn dogs. Pros: middle-of-the-forest setting, marvelous house and common rooms, original fireplaces, good dinner. Cons: will be too isolated for some, rooms could be better equipped (better bedding needed, for example).
