Huttopia White Mountains

My family just stayed at Huttopia White Mountains in their winter chalets and we had an excellent time. I was a little nervous as I think the site being open in winter is still relatively new, and I couldn't find many reviews for it. If you want to be secluded in the woods and have access to winter activities this location is great. The chalet is very cozy and they provide everything you need. We were worried it might get cold but I was completely wrong. Single digit temps outside and inside was nice and toasty. Pros * There's only 10 chalets, so you won't see very many other people. We only saw other families in passing once or twice each day. * Self check-in, so you can arrive anytime after their check-in time. You receive an email about an hour before check-in time with details about how to access the chalet. * The people managing the property did a great job, the roads and paths were all plowed and well marked. There was a large storm one day and they were out clearing the path and parking lot every two hours or so. * The property is large enough that we didn't need to leave to have outdoor fun. We were able to snow shoe all over the property. There are hills so we were also able to go sledding. Loved seeing the frozen lake. * There's lots of activities nearby in North Conway, and other area ski resorts. Tubing was only about 20 minutes away. I had done a fair amount of research about activities and Huttopia provided a book of local places that included some things I wasn't aware of. Lots of skiing nearby. * They have fire places in the chalets and have wood available to purchase, that's close to the cabins. The wood is like what you would get at the grocery store, shrink wrapped and kiln dried. Cash only though. * You get a clearly marked parking space and your own designated cart and sled to bring things to your chalet. There was a lot of packed snow, so the sled was so helpful. * They give you a drying rack to hang your wet now gear by the fire, so you don't have to hang them all over the pace. There's also a plastic boot tray so your floors don't get wet. * They give you an outdoor fire pit with log seats right in front of the chalet. It was really cold and incredibly windy so we didn't get to use it but had the weather been a little more cooperative I would have loved it. Cons * The pillows are pretty thin. I would recommend bringing your own. * The heat works so well that, with heat rising, the upstairs was really warm. My kids slept in shorts without blankets. After a few days we worked out which thermostat controlled upstairs and what temp to set it at to make them more comfortable. My recommendation would be an hour before bedtime turn it way down. Staying here in the winter is essentially like renting a cabin AirBnB, without the ridiculous extra fees. We had a great time! I highly recommend it, and we will definitely be coming back.

Second time for us at huttopia. We love the place. The outdoor pool and the lake are awesome for kids and adults to swim. We loved the lake platform. The tents are well equipped. The food is great with food pizzas, crepes and smoothies. Perfectly located closed to amazing hikes.

It was our first night and it was AMAZING!

Great environment for families - liked that there were programs for kids & snack options. Didn't like being so close to the highway, as we could hear trucks at night.

The property deliveries all of the stuffs is described on the website, so the site is quiet, safe, and wonderful. The tent was clean and tidy when we get there. The bathhouse is cleaned everyday. We were there for 4 days, and I do not have been any troubles.

We were booked for 4 nights, me, my husband and 2 small dogs. The sites are very close to each other, and the entire campground was filled with young families with children. It was like being at Disney Land- the site was lovely, but I was so stressed out we left after 2 nights and lost $800. The final straw was when I was walking my dogs and a small feral child on a bike was harassing my dog- I lost my cool and scolded him. Yuck- I really hate being that person, but it was necessary he was ill mannered! I never dreamed I would find this vacation stressful! Oh Lord! It made me cry. The kids were having a great time, but the screaming and screeching made my dogs bark- they would not settle down because the noise was constant, and it was really noisy! I wanted a quiet, peaceful vacation in the woods to unwind and relax- If you are looking for peace and quiet find a remote site- if you are looking to entertain little kids, this place will work well. If you don't mind feeling like you are in a city in the woods- this place is fine. I live in the country in New Hampshire, so I really wanted it to be at least as quiet as my home not Disney Land-like.
