    A rising star in Bethlehem!

    The walkway and porch steps were a bit icy and slippery and could have been more safely prepped for guests. The wonderfully comfortable bed in our room was quite high for my short wife and it appears that many of the rooms have a similar bed. Rather than a running start, a stepstool under each bed would be VERY helpful. We did have a pair of small chairs in our room that we utilized to help her crawl up onto the bed. Simple solutions and, other than that, there is NOTHING to dislike about our stay here.

    The Mulburn Inn (built in 1908 as The Ivie Cottage) is under the new ownership of Dave and Karen Caldwell and they have every intention of making this inn a total success. They are a delightful and personable couple, and the inn is a spectacular example of the Teddy Roosevelt Era summer mansions built throughout New England. The spacious home is full of era appropriate furnishings and tastefully decorated. We stayed in The Franklin Pierce Room (rooms are named after presidents here in The Presidential Mountain Range) which was VERY roomy and comfortable. There was a large living room and several parlor rooms, including a large entertainment room with a large screen TV and comfortable couches and the mandatory Moose Head on the wall. The breakfast room was SO cozy with a large fireplace and the availability of 24/7 coffee, tea and water. In the winter, you could easily spend your entire morning or evening just reading next to the fireplace with a cup of coffee. Breakfast was DELICIOUS! Fresh fruit, muffin, "Dave's Scramble" (WOW!), maple/brown sugar/cayenne glazed bacon and wonderfully prepared home fries. The property is well-lighted at night and has a classic 1949 Packard in the front yard. We would, definitely, stay here again! Bethlehem is a delightful little community with a better selection of good restaurants than many cities much larger and they were OPEN in the winter! We had a wonderful dinner at The Cold Mountain Cafe. This inn and community are well worth spending some time in. Keep up the great work, Karen and Dave!

    Beautiful historic house lovingly cared for and homey and friendly at the same time. Rooms are beautiful with very comfortable bed. There was a large and delicious home cooked breakfast.

    What's not to like? The only thing I didn't like was leaving.

    The Mulburn Inn has a great atmosphere. You will feel right at home. The hosts, Dave and Karen, go above and beyond, making sure your stay is comfortable. The place is alive with history and is extremely cozy; interesting art, warm fireplaces, and plenty of nooks to hang out in. There is a delicious restaurant just two doors down and the breakfast at the inn itself is great. Plenty of coffee, tea, and other little goodies. There is a lovely front porch and outdoor fire pits for your enjoyment.

    Bathroom was small but functional and it had great hot water.

    Our first impression of the Mulburn Inn was "awesome". The Inn was decorated for Halloween and had a very welcoming feel. Large wrap around porch and great front steps brought us to the front door. The interior was as charming as the exterior. We were greeted by Dave, Karen and the dogs. Dave was a woot, great sense of humor and kept us on our toes deciding if he was pooling our legs or serious about what he told us. After check-in, Karen showed us around the downstairs common areas. A large entryway, great dining room, two sitting areas and a T.V. room. There are antiques and old photos everywhere, heralding back to a time when this was once a private residence. Our rooms were on the second floor and on corners of the house. One room faced the backyard, and the other room faced the front of the house. Both rooms had vistas of color apparent in the trees and hillsides. Dave and Karen put on a mean breakfast spread. Dave makes killer "bacon" lathered in maple syrup and butter. Included were eggs, breads and fruit. Too much to finish, but our group gave it the good old college try. Dave and Karen made this a memorable stay. There is also a concierge who comes in during breakfast and helps folks plan the day trips for what best to see and do in the area. I would recommend this B&B to anyone that wants to be pampered and enjoy a homey stay in northern New Hampshire.

    Did not like that the owners had two dogs, when it stated that no pets are allowed on the booking site. My wife has pet allergies.

    Nothing.

    From the moment you walk in the door, you know that you are in for a good experience. The decor, and even the whimsical Halloween decorations, were tasteful and inviting. Our room looked out on the front and the rear, with beautiful forested mountain vistas. The room was immaculate, with attention to detail. The breakfast was very good, with ultra yummy bacon, eggs, and fruit. Others also had pancakes. The owner, Dave, was fantastic and a font of information. He also provided a large cooler with ice and cold water bottles, without us asking. Karen, the co-owner and spouse was open and very pleasant as well. The very welcoming assistant, Jess, warmed up my almond milk for latte multiple times. When we decided to get takeout, Dave prepared the dining room with plates, glasses, and cutlery, even providing us wine. Dave and Karen provide a thoroughly hospitable inn experience, and we hope to return when next we head to NH/VT in 2027.
