"Jaw-dropping Mountain Views"

10.0

Gale River Motel is the perfect low-key escape in the heart of the White Mountains. The rooms are spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully equipped - everything you need. But the real showstopper? The jaw-dropping mountain views right outside your window. Peaceful, welcoming, and incredibly well-run—this place is a true hidden gem.

The cabin was very well appointed and clean. It is just getting over mud season so the grounds were not in spring condition yet but very neat. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Would stay there again.

The property listing was very misleading. Property looked very run down. No one in the office. Finally walked around and bumped into the owner. After a short conversation , we decided to leave and find new accommodations.
