Great Ski Stay

A wonderfully quite place to stay. Our visit was to enjoy Sugarloaf and the Terrapins proximity to the mountain was great. We even extended our stay one more might with no hassle as weather closed the mountain one day.

I definitely stay again!

The room was nice and great to have our own bathroom as there was three of us. Very comfortable and good to have air conditioning since it was hot for October. The kitchen is well stocked and easy to make ourselves at home. Lauran was immediately responsive for my check in question. Thanks for the great stay.

We received a text letting us know where to park and the code to get in . The hostel was very comfortable. We had a nice 2 bed room on the second floor and the shower was nice They left instructions for a help yourself breakfast and it looked really nice but we didn’t get to enjoy . We ate dinner , went to bed and left the house by 430 am We would definitely stay again

8/10 Very good

Nice and cozy hostel. Very clean. No hairdryer, so it’s a bit inconvenient if you have long hair. The breakfast is self-served (you can cook/prepare it on your own. Ingredients provided)

Last minute find, would definitely stay there again. I'm assuming due to a rain storm coming in, we had the place to ourselves! Matt was very welcoming and the house was very clean.

Feels like home!

This was a great stop for a night on our way to Sugarloaf to ski. We booked last minute, but were given very clear check-in instructions. The room was comfortable, clean, and the extra amenities like the living room and breakfast supplies were an added bonus! We would absolutely stay again next time we’re up this way.

Pleasant stay

Wonderful stay at this hostel. Easy access and straight forward communication on house rules. Quiet and comfortable. Make yourself at home. Nice array of breakfast food.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The hostel is in a cute old house with nice decor. We particularly enjoyed the pool table and darts to spend the evening. Breakfast had all the options you would want, better than most continental breakfasts. On the downsides, there was a double booking so we ended up in a shared bathroom room. And the windows don't open so it got stuffy (there is AC though)
