About Teena...
I vacationed in North Conway as a child and loved the rural lifestyle!
Nature was all around and there was wildlife everywhere! The air is dry, the sky seems a much deeper blue, unlike the city the sky is ablaze with stars at night because there's not wash from the city lights and the people seemed genuine and friendly.
North Conway is located in the Mount Washington Valley, a valley that is surrounded by the Magestic White Mountains. What could be better than to feel like you're being hugged by the Presidential Range? I traveled quite a bit in the USA and abroad and lived in several states but I couldn’t find the perfect place to call home.
About 20 years ago I was in the same boat as you! I needed to find a house big enough for all of us, wanted plenty of space to spread out, wanted to be tucked in the woods yet close to town, wanted private sleeping spaces instead of sharing a bedroom with other couples, needed some kind of entertainment for those that didn't ski or hike, dreamed of a private outdoor space to relax in the sun and wanted plenty of parking. Sounds like the impossible dream eh? NOT! Stay tuned...
We rented the lodge that is now called the Four Seasons Lodge. I arrived before everyone else so I could assign bedrooms and get the Lodge set up. When I walked in I didn't know whether to jump for joy or cry! The style, design and function of the lodge was superb but it was in desparate need of some good, honest TLC!
Duirng our stay the weather was bad! Avalanche at Tuckerman's, chair lift shut down because of wind, white out snowstorms and power outages! We know how to pick vacation dates! The GREAT news is that neither dirty couches nor natural disasters had any effect (affect) on our stay! We had a BLAST!
I need to say it again... because of the Lodge we had a BLAST! Some adults played cards, some snuck away and read, some kids took naps in their private bedrooms, some kids danced in the dance/game room, some kids made a snowman outside the pool room, some kids played Uno and no one fought or got in trouble!We had such a great time (even with the challenges) that we purchased the Lodge 4 months later. We have played, bonded, enjoyed and most definitely, never regretted purchasing the Four Seasons Lodge!
We have met such wonderful people renting our home over the years. Quite a few have become close friends.
I have owned the Lodge SO long that in the past few years I have been receiving countless calls from folks with small children who stayed at the Lodge when THEY were children! They all say that the memories they carried into adulthood that were made at the Four Seasons Lodge prompted them to seek me out and take their children to the same house!
I hope that your group has the opportunity to enjoy and make wonderful memories at our home too!
