About this house rental

Nestled in North Conway, this charming house for $398 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. A perfect central location for your White Mountain Valley Vacation. The Gecko Inn has a long tradition, 17+ years, of renting to 1 or 2 families looking for a peaceful location with mountain views yet only 20 minutes to Storyland, 10 minutes to Cranmore Mountain and Adventure Park and an easy drive to all North Conway amenities. Our home is located at the end of a cul-de-sac in the quiet Birch Hill development. This home used to be listing #22036 with 51 positive reviews before we purchased it from the previous owners in 2016. We are friends who rented from them every year and are excited to continue the same traditions to you. Whether you are coming to Ski, Hike, Tube the Saco River, Shop at the North Conway outlets, or relax by the fireplace or in the hot tub, The Gecko Inn is small enough for one family yet spacious enough for two families to enjoy. Most neighbors are full time residents so this is not a "party home."

We had a really great time staying at this home. It was very comfortable and spacious. Everything was clean, and the kitchen was well stocked. We cooked several big meals there. Our favorite part was the foosball and giant Jenga. We had such a blast with that. The only thing that was a little tricky was the heating. It was difficult to get the right temperature. It was either too hot or too cold, you have to play around with the heat to get it at a good temperature. The location was perfect. And we had a wonderful time there.

The Gecko Inn comfortably accommodated our group of five. There was plenty of room for everyone. The beds were comfortable and having three full bathrooms was definitely a plus. We did not have any young children with us but did notice that the bedroom on the main floor, with two sets of bunk beds, had a closet full of toys to keep little ones busy. We did travel with our family dog and we’re pleased to find a run just outside the front door. The back deck was also dog friendly with a gate which allowed us to spend time out there with our dog without worrying about him wandering away. The home is in a quiet neighborhood and close to North Conway, numerous hiking trails and many other attractions. There is no air conditioning but plenty of fans and, with the windows open at night, we all slept comfortably. The kitchen is well stocked with everything needed to prepare meals at the home. We truly enjoyed our stay and will consider renting again in the future.

We had a great time! The house was spacious and clean with plenty of ways to entertain our young kids (2 and 3). There is so much to do in the area and the gecko inn was convenient to get to everything!

Over all we were comfortable. Lighting is poor and the bunk beds on the main floor are not comfortable. I had to purchase face cloths because there was only 1 per person for 7 days stay. I am not into using the same washcloth over and over. Had to use bath towels 3 days each. Also, only 1 roll of toilet paper doesn't cut it for a 7 day stay either. Had to purchase that also. And there is no air-conditioning. We had every fan going day and night. With this said it is close to shops and restaurants and main attractions. Used the hot tub one morning before it got hot and humid outside. Grilled most of our food but was too humid to eat outside. Was really confused about all the recycling rules, so one night we burned what we could and took the rest of the trash with us to dispose at home. The mountains are some of the most beautiful you have ever seen along with the stream, rivers and waterfalls. So overall I do rate the stay at a 9 but glad to be home and in my own bed tonight.
