This house is incredible. We had a group of 16 for our annual friend group ski trip. First, it’s enormous, we were literally getting lost when moving in. Every room has a bathroom which was amazing.
The owners have really set the house up to accommodate large groups. Two coffee makers and two dishwashers were so key!
There’s even a Poland spring water cooler.
Owner is so responsive and helpful. This experience FAR exceeded our expectations!

We had a comfortable relaxing stay at the Twitchell house. Appreciated the large kitchen with and extra large island great for buffet style serving, large fridge, the hot tub, quality linens, and 8 separate bedrooms.

Amenities are exceptional - two dishwashers, fully-stocked kitchen with pots and pans, dishware, silverware, and other kitchenware for ultimate food prep convenience, two coffee makers, robes in each bedroom for use with the hot tub, towels and linens. Every bedroom has its own bathroom. Space is luxurious. Location is very convenient to Sunday River.

My family met there for my parents 60th anniversary, and it was an absolute pleasure to spend the weekend there.. as others have said, didn’t even need to leave the house, so much to do in a beautiful setting.

This house was great for our group of six families. We loved that we each got our own bathroom and that the pool was only 4ft deep since we have small children. There was so much space and we didn't feel cramped at all. The moms were able to escape one night and literally walked across the street for a drink. We didn't venture out much since there were so many of us but had great weather and hung out by the pool both days. Would probably have gotten more use our of the game room if our kids were a bit older- 6 months to 5---but they loved the pool and also a nice yard for games.

The Thaddeus Twitchell house is a great place for an extended family vacation! The house is large enough to provide group meals and communal space while at the same time having comfortable spaces for the necessary alone time! It is extremely well appointed with every thing necessary to prepare, cook, and serve all the family meals- from bbq to kitchen prepared. This is our second time staying there and will no doubt keep it at the top of our list for vacation spots!

This home was beyond amazing. Every detail is carefully attended. We were there with 15 family members. The bedrooms and bathrooms were so clean and well equipped. The kitchen was BEYOND fantastic. Everything was easily found, in great numbers for such a large group and everything you could have ever needed. The heated pool and hot tub were very well kept. The screened in porch, the volleyball nets, the lawn toys, the inside game room made our children enjoy the house for hours upon hours. The location is amazing. We hiked nearly every day, canoed, and enjoyed the close by restaurants and breweries. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing resort.

From the initial booking conversation to the final goodbye text, both John and Cynthia were excellent. Their pride and care in their home shines through on every interaction. This was our tenth year traveling as a group and we wanted special and memorable. The house was somehow both fancy and comfortable, with many amenties for all ages. We especially enjoyed the welcome basket greeting us upon arrival - it was unexpected and delightful. The house is very clean and stocked with anything we needed, beds are comfortable, and the neighborhood is quiet. The screened enclosure on the pool deck was everyone's favorite nighttime escape from pesky summer bugs. All in all, we hope to one day return. Thank you!

We stayed here for for 10 days (end of June through beginning of July). The house was perfect for our family! We were celebrating a few birthdays while we were there, and the homeowners had a beautiful, personalized gift basket waiting for us! The home was very clean and well equipped. There were 15 of us and plenty of dishes, glasses, towels, etc. There was also plenty of space, we never felt like we were crowded or on top of one another. You can tell the owners care deeply about this property. They were always available to answer questions if needed. One night while we were there we had an issue with one of the showers. When the plumber got there, he told us how good the owners were about maintaining the property. The pool was fantastic, and the hot tub was sublime. So many jets!
The house was located close to town and Sunday River, and there were lots of things to do close by.
I highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a very nice place to stay for a larger group. I would definitely go back again!

Thaddeus Twitchell house was spacious and offered everything our family could want on our vacation. The pool and hot tub were the perfect place for us to gather and enjoy. Great location, very easy to get to and near cute stores and many restaurants. We went kayaking on the Androscoggin River- the views were gorgeous. Cynthia and John were very responsive to our questions and needs. We would absolutely stay here again.

Traveling with a group of cycling friends. House conveniently located to some great cycling loops and the large hot tub was just what our legs needed after a day in the White Mtns, (Recommend the Grafton Notch and Evans Notch loops posted as best rides in Maine on Maine Bicycle Coalition website.)

Every year our family takes a group ski trip with our closest friends. Finding a place to stay that will accommodate our large group, and we all love, is often a challenge. The Thaddeus Twitchell house did not disappoint. In fact, it was above and beyond our expectations. This beautiful historical home was everything we wanted and more. We loved the spaciousness, cleanliness, and the unique décor of each room. Our children loved the game room and having their own space to hang out. We loved sitting by the fireplace each night and enjoying each other’s company. The large dining room was perfect for our Saturday night feast. All our needs were met, including the glassware for every type of drink. If you plan on heading to Sunday River, or visiting the local eateries, the Thaddeus Twitchell is close by. Aside from all this, our hosts John and Cynthia were very attentive to all our questions and needs. We made many great memories at this home and each member of our group agreed that this was one of their favorites!

Stayed at John and Cynthia's Bethel house for a ski trip with 4 families. The house is huge and we all lived comfortably with rooms to spare. Short drive to Sunday River and restaurants. Kitchen is well stocked and hosts provided all necessary check-in, check-out and house info. He even gave us a generous gift when he had to stop by to drop off firewood. Overall we highly recommend the house and will rebook. Thanks!

We had a group of 16 stay at this awesome house! Perfect for a weekend ski getaway with a group of friends, it was 10 min to Sunday River and had a food shop in walking distance if you needed any last minute groceries. We used the main living room and the kitchen the most, having 2 dishwashers and a 6 burner stove was great for our large group. The fire place and the hot tub were 2 features that we took full advantage of after a day on the slopes. Only thing we wish was that we were here for the summer so that we could hop into the pool and enjoy the yard a bit more.

We had our annual ski trip here with friends, and it was so lovely! The house is huge, comfortable, and well stocked. We loved the fireplace and hot tub. Since we were there during a crazy cold spell (so cold that the ski mountains were closed one day), the hosts checked in often to make sure we had everything we needed. We would certainly stay here again.

We had a great weekend up in Bethel. The house catered to our large group perfectly And was in great proximity to Sunday River as well as the other attractions in Bethel. The house was so well equipped we didn’t even feel the need to leave at night.
Our group enjoyed all the different areas to congregate and you never would have known 16 of us were there. The home was so spacious.
We will definitely be back!

We were 4 families of 4 who skied Sunday River over the Christmas break. The house is approximately 5 minutes to the mountain and is on the shuttle route although it wasn’t available to us during our stay. The house is huge, in great condition, well stocked and surpassed our expectations. Communication with the owner was seamless. Highly recommended.

This was our second stay at the Twitchell house and once again did not disappoint! Our guests were impressed with the accommodations and charm of the home. I made at least 80 dozen cookies preparing for the wedding(Pittsburgh Pa tradition) in the well appointed kitchen. Plenty of room to work in the kitchen while others had plenty of room to relax. Convenient location to events on the mountain as well as the location of our wedding event in The town of Bethel. John and Cynthia are terrific! Great communications and willingness to help or problem solve to meet our needs. Could not have asked for a better experience! Our grandchildren lovethe game room. We enjoyed family dinner in the beautiful dining room and after all the work was done the hot tub was a welcomed treat for tired legs and backs!

We thoroughly enjoyed our annual family reunion at this wonderful house. Space is unparalleled with plenty of amenities. Kitchen is very well stocked and outfitted with everything you need and more including 2 dishwashers and refrigerators. It was a pleasure preparing nightly meals for our family.
The house was extremely comfortable and clean. We each had our own bedroom/bathroom and appreciated the wonderful robes provided which we used to enjoy the hot tub nightly.
The hosts, John and Lynne, were super! Very responsive to my emails/texts and provided a wonderful birthday basket for our mom who celebrated her birthday during our visit. Our family was extremely happy with this beautiful and well equipped property.

Phenomenal! We stayed at the Twitchell House for a family reunion and cannot say enough good things. Home was IMMACULATE (cleanest rental property I have ever stayed at) and perfectly appointed. Literally everything you need is provided. Comfortable beds, amazing water pressure, plenty of space to hang out by the fireplace, gorgeous pool/deck, huge, well-stocked kitchen - just pitch perfect. Our group of 13 ranged in age from 3-75 and we all loved it. Honestly best rental experience I have ever had. John and Cynthia are communicative and thoughtful hosts - I mentioned we would be celebrating two bdays (a 75th and a 10th) and they provided birthday baskets filled with goodies! We loved this house and everyone wants to return. Truly magical place to reconnect with family. Strongly recommend.

We barely left the house because we had everything we needed! Our family had such quality time in this home; the memories are priceless. This home provided a quaint yet luxurious experience all at once.
The home is charming and fully equipped for big groups. Communication with the owner was fantastic. I want to come back with my girlfriends for another weekend away!

Second time staying in at this wonderful property. Stayed for ski weekend and recently for golf weekend. Loved the property in the summer, as we could avail of the outdoor pool and hang out there. This property really has everything you could need for a large group, extremely well equipped. I have rented many properties for group trips and this is one of the nicest and certainly cleanest and best outfitted. We are repeating both trips here, we liked it so much.

My extended family and I get together once a year for a week long vacation. This year a group of 9 adults and 6 kids (ranging from 18months -5 years old) stayed at the Twitchell House for a week and we had a great time. Even the pickiest of the bunch said this has been the best place we have rented so far. There was plenty of space for privacy. Every bedroom has its own bathroom. All rooms had air conditioning. The pool is 4ft deep all around which is big plus with little kids. The pool floor was also padded. The hot tub was large and easily fit 6 adults. The kitchen was well stocked. The formal dinning room had enough seating for all of us. Two dishwashers ensured we constantly had clean dishes. The house is also located close to the bike trail, 18 hole mini golf, and Foodline (grocery store). There is also two breweries down the street. The adults in the group definitely appreciated that there was non-kid related activities nearby. My only gripe is unrelated to the house but with the town’s lack of sidewalks. Getting to the bike path or mini golf is either a very short walking on a busy road or driving 3 minutes to the parking lot. So minor. Overall, great house and location.

The home was beautiful, we literally had to just bring ourselves & clothes. There were pool toys, lawn games, the game room. Something for everyone. The house was situated within an hour to an hour and a half from everything we wanted to do! Our hosts were very responsive & helpfully with anything we need! Would stay here again!

We had a wonderful time at the Thaddeus Twitchell House for group of 17. Beautiful and spacious property. Beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was so spacious and had everything we need and more. Plenty of towels for the pool. Kids couldn't stay out of the pool, they all got a nice tan. We were enjoyed the outdoor very much and took advantage of the nice weather. We did a lot of grilling "thanks to the 6 burners". Lastly, I can't say enough about the property owner, thank you so much John!

Great Family Reunion
We had a great week! The house is beautiful and the setup so thoughtfully done…from two coffee makers to end tables at every pool chair. Plenty of yard games and tvs throughout. We had a great time in Bethel- kayaking, hiking, gem hunting and a great time at the house - swimming, playing cards and cooking in the ridiculously well stocked kitchen!
