Great spot for a families
We were in Bethel to visit Sunday River over Christmas week and this home exceeded our expectations. Recent record floods meant many of the area businesses were closed and the skiing was very limited, but we had a wonderful stay in this home and didn't mind spending more time staying in. I contacted the owner to check on the area conditions prior to traveling over a thousand miles for our visit and he promptly responded. It is a very short and easy drive into town and to Sunday River. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals and being able to do laundry and have a giant mudroom when staying somewhere for a ski week is always a plus with a family and their gear. There is plenty of comfortable seating for dining and lounging in front of the fire or TV. The basement game room provided hours of family entertainment. We picked up some firewood from the Shell station on the way home from the slopes one afternoon so we could enjoy roasting marshmallows and hotdogs in the outdoor firepit in the light snow. The downstairs bathroom does have a tub which can be important if you have smaller children. I really can't think of any negatives. The only very minor suggestion that I can even come up with if forced to do so would be perhaps a step stool for shorties like myself (5 ft 2 in) so I could reach the tops of the tall kitchen cabinets or to the fabric softener on top of the stacked washer dryer but that is being nitpicky. This vacation rental is as perfect as it gets.
