    Very friendly and accommodating hosts. The room was exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated. Very nice touches like fresh baked goods in the afternoon and access to coffee and tea all day. Delicious Breakfast. Excellent internet and secure parking behind the house. Located right on Main Street within walking distance to shops and excellent restaurants

    Not a thing.

    it was an immaculately kept old house (we like old houses and antique furniture) situated in the center of town and within walking distance of several good places to eat.

    Not applicable. I loved it.

    The location was great. John was extremely helpful and knowledgeable regarding everything Bethel. Jeanette is an exceptional cook and served us hot breakfast as promised. Everything was clean and comfortable. My husband and I were totally relaxed and happy with everything. Great find. Actually Holidae was a Gem.💎 Thank you John and Jeanette. You guys are rock stars. ✨

    We are accustomed to somewhat sterile Airbnbs and were blown away with our experience at the Holidae House! It is clear John and Jeanette love what they do and they go above and beyond to ensure your stay is as pleasant as possible. The property itself is quaint, charming, and impeccably clean. We can't wait to come back!

    During our stay, the central steam heating system in the whole house wasn’t working properly (on/off at around 62/64 degrees). thankfully in all the upstair rooms, we had a little heating fan that kept our room warm. Was chilly on the main floor (living room) and dining room but again, in that latter one, additional heating fans were working at breakfast. besides that, I greatly recommend the Holidae House

    Jeannette is a Great « chef »… She cooks astonishing breakfasts. I even got 2 of her recipes. John, her husband, treats us like special guests, always has great stories to talk about.

    Less ice in the parking lot but that's up to mother nature.

    Breakfast was excellent. Location is perfect for skiing at Sunday River and being in the town of Bethel. We were able to walk to restaurants for dinner. Plus, there were afternoon goodies, like pineapple upside cake and cookies.

    I thought the bed was a bit soft but my wife loves that. Different strokes... There was only a draw curtain to separate the bathroom. We would have preferred a more solid door installation. But overall the room was fantastic and beautifully decorated.

    Great location on the main drag in Bethel. Maybe 4 miles to Sunday River ski resort, or 5 to the golf resort. Maine Mineral and Gem Museum is a couple doors down. Fascinating; tells the story of gem crystal mining and also a whole floor devoted to meteorites. Breakfast was amazing, and the morning coffee is always fresh ground from beans. Keurig available with a great selection of coffee & tea for later day. Proprietors extremely friendly and engaging in conversation with guests; truly 110% concerned with comfort and satisfaction. They start you off with a personal tour of the house and all its features, answering any questions you might have. House itself VERY solid for an older structure - you don't hear much at all from creaking floorboards, stairs, etc. Plenty of street parking. Good selection of casual dining with entertainment in easy walking distance down the street. We visited 6 different lodgings during a 3-week ski trip, and this experience was the best of them. We only stayed one night between ski resorts, but definitely would consider for a longer stay in the future.

    The Holidae House was such a warm and lovely stay in Bethel. John and Jeannette were gracious hosts that provided expert service, a lovely Victorian style B&B, and great breakfast! They shared great recommendations for our stay including where to get outdoor equipment and where to eat. As dog lovers they also lets us meet and spend some time with their furry friends! We so enjoyed ourselves an hope to be back at some point.

    Everything was perfect John is so knowledgeable about the area for eating out and explaining how everything at the Inn works. Jeanette cooks the most amazing Breakfast that you will never forget. And they also have fresh baked cookies every night. I would definitely recommend staying at this Victorian Inn it is spotless and very well kept up.

    The only thing I would change is having soft white light bulbs in the lamps rather than bright white. It would make the place even cozier.

    John and Jeannette were very friendly and welcoming. Anything we needed (not that we needed much beyond the norm) they were accommodating. Jeannette's cooking for breakfast was excellent, as were the snacks she would have out in the afternoons. The bedroom we stayed in was cozy, and well appointed. And very warm, which was great when it was nearly 0° outside. Walkable to all the restaurants in Bethel. I would stay here again, and we are already planning our next visit.

    nothing to highlight

    The owners, they are brilliant hostages. Location is also top, as it is close to restaurants and to the sky resort. We went there with our infant (6 months) and i don’t have words to express how well they treated us providing a crib and all facilities (room on the 1st floor, nanny to stay on the common areas, fridge for baby bottles). This is the second time we came here, and we will repeat!!
