The idyllic hills and surrounding trees make this a lovely walk. The tour guide was informative and fairly friendly. The staff kinda led us a little stray from the tour when we arrived, but they figured things out. The museum itself seems a lot more low-key than Hancock Shaker, the latter being a more vast museum and includes more exhibits and things to see, such as farm animals. With this museum, you'll get a good sense of Shaker living and see some of their aspects of their lives. However, the tour guide will give you a richer sense of what they did and why. The Shakers are an intriguing and interesting people and definitely worth a look. The gift shop offers various Shaker crafts and books. Plus there's a video in the back on the village that you can watch for free. You can go into some of the individual buildings, but many of them were closed, which was a little discouraging and felt limiting. So while I do think this was a good visit and still worth it, Hancock Shaker is a better place to go to learn about the people. (I haven't been to Sabbathday Shaker in Maine yet)

This was one of our best stops in New Hampshire. The Canterbury Shaker village is the only Shaker…read moreCommunity that became a museum while residents stilled lived there. The Shakers were not like the Amish in that they embraced technology and were one of the first villages in New Hampshire to use electricity. (The Shakers and the Quakers were also totally different groups.) The buildings are original, as is most of the furnishings. I HIGHLY recommend you take advantage of the free guide, who will take you into many of the buildings and explain how and why the Shakers were so successful. As you may know, the Shakers were celibate and it seems inevitable that they would die out. However, many people joined the group because of their views about peace and harmony. Also, they willingly adopted orphaned children. These children grew up in the village and frequently stayed, so that the number of people actually increased for over 200 years. This village is well worth the stop and I very much highly recommend this excellent experience.

This inn provides all the cozy things ~ coffee available in the morning, a selection of other coffees and teas available via Keurig at other times.

Tucked into the corner of the basin of Lake Winnipesaukee with easy access to the "big lake," but all the quiet of a much smaller lake, this spot is truly a gem. It's easy to fall in love with Sunset Lodges while reading on their large dock, waterskiing around the basin or enjoying a refreshing swim. The cabins are charming, with big windows that look out on the lake and large stone fireplaces to help warm you up on a chilly evening. We also really enjoy that the lovely town of Wolfeboro is just a few minutes down the road, making shopping for groceries or grabbing a quick breakfast out very convenient. This is a great place for families and groups of people vacationing together.

The home/bed and breakfast was a beautiful place. The grounds were beautiful and the home was very…read morewell kept. Location was ideal. We were very disappointed in the breakfast and access to the butlers pantry. The breakfast was not at all close to what is depicted on the website. Very little food...not even a full adult breakfast (one very thin waffle and three small slices of sausage). No granola and yogurt or food comparable to what is advertised on the website. The website says there are items available in the evening, but all we could find was a jar of prepackaged cookies. Also, the butler pantry is closed in the middle of the day, so no access to anything placed in the fridge, the ice, the water, or coffee. I've stayed at many bed and breakfasts in New England and around the country and this one was disappointing, to say the least. We had gathered with many of our friends for the weekend who stayed at Timbercliff and at other B&Bs in Camden. All had nothing but great things to say about the large breakfasts, hosts, accommodations. We and our friends who stayed at Timbercliffe were disappointed. Other notes: * No information shared with us on housekeeping (fresh towels? do they come in every day or not...just wanted to know) * Never officially met Kevin (one of the owners/hosts). Even though we stayed for three nights and he served breakfast to us without saying much. I would not recommend if you have options of staying elsewhere. I very much wanted to love this place, but sadly, we walked away disappointed because our expectations were what we saw on the website, which vastly differed from reality.

Luckily, we did notice it when we pulled into the parking lot and it wasn't obscured by the greenery from the road. Our room was on the second floor overlooking the parking lot. We had a very comfortable king size bed with a kidney shaped sofa and ottoman, desk, and a very basic bathroom. While it was clear that the bathroom needed work, I appreciated the fact that the sink and vanity were separate from the toilet and tub. It made getting ready easier! We appreciated the bar area, and had a very friendly bartender who went by Azrael (I think??? Not sure we ever got her name?). She was witty and had us laughing while pouring our drinks. The next morning we ate breakfast at the Starbucks cafe. It was decent. I am very picky about my food. I ordered scrambled eggs with avocado, quinoa, spinach, and parmesan cheese. My husband ordered scrambled eggs, bacon, and homefries. The portion sizes were very small for what we paid. This hotel suited its purpose for our stay. We were here for one overnight to attend a wake and funeral. It is situated inside of an industrial area near the highway, and sadly, there are many homeless people living nearby in the woods that abuts the property. They are in the process of renovating this property, so perhaps with a little dazzle it can morph into a five star rating.
