    Photo Album

    Although each room is unique in size, decor, and bed type, they are all comfortable, warm and welcoming.  Each room has its own private bathroom. Dexter's guests enjoy recreation & relaxation throughout the year as a result of the many on-site activities including three tennis courts, a swimming pool, a commercial x-c ski & snowshoe operation, lawn games, a game room, a library and numerous indoor and outdoor gathering spaces.
    We have hosted close to 4 dozen weddings and receptions since we were married here in 1981.The smallest was a party of 4, and the largest was 325! We will be glad to send you a complete packet explaining all the details. We believe it is a unique location which is private, but easily accessible, and perfectly suited for a Gatsby-like weekend event.Our family-friendly fine dining restaurant features an interesting mix of traditional American fare and ethnic chef specialties and is open to both in-house guests and the general public.
    Peak foliage takes place on Sept 28 at 5:07 AM and I'm the only one who sees it! The question "when is peak" is paramount to planning fall trips to New England. Fortunately, everyday here is spectacular. Our location is particularly well suited to use as a base to take day trips around NH,Vt, Maine, and Mass. We are only a 2 hour drive along back roads with gorgeous scenery to almost any spot you wish to visit. We always go over maps and itinerarys pointing out not to be missed spots along the way. Yes, we even hand out maps so you will make it back in time for the evening meal! More than once, however, we have heard the comment " we were gone all day, had a great trip, and found the brightest colors right here when we returned!"The two upper courts were built in 1973 and all three are being resurfaced this spring. They are occupied with the daily clinics and private lessons as well as round robins and mixed doubles. The resident pro from 6/1-9/1 takes a great deal of pride in improving your game and making it fun at the same time. From children to USTA Sanctioned Senior Tournaments, everyone enjoys playing on top of the hill here at Dexter's!
    After a good workout on the courts, or for those who would rather just relax and soak up the sun and the mountain scenery at the same time, the pool provides the perfect spot. Surrounded by a hedge instead of a fence, the wide deck allows plenty of room for everyone to stretch out and do nothing at all!The Holly House cottage is a "home away from home" which can sleep up to 10 guests and includes two full batrooms, a full kitchen, and a large living room with gas fireplace and satellite tv/vcr/dvd.
