Very hospitable staff. We got to know and appreciate the history of this property. It is very conveniently located and close to many of major attractions for a fall foliage trip.
There was plenty of room to book for my extended family who was coming for my son's wedding while still seeming quiet and intimate. The breakfast was lovely, There was a nice bar which also had mocktails and a lovely restaurant for dinner.
The Best breakfast I ever had in a hotel. The room smell so good, and the view from
The balcony was so relaxing. I loved the place, I will reccommended to my friends.
This is an older property in an excellent location. We had a room in the annex with a balcony overlooking the stream and slept with the screen door open to the sound of running water. This is a great place to stay if you're exploring Crawford State Park or Mt. Washington. The onsite restaurant was excellent for both breakfast and dinner, easily some of the best food we had while touring rhe White Mountains.
Sara was very nice and helpful. The grounds were very pretty. Take a walk over to the bridge that crosses the river..beautiful photo op. Enjoyed the breakfast that was included with our stay.
it’s an older home converted into a motel with add ons. Small bedroom (queen bed) with slanting floor and no tv or coffee option in room and the walls were thin. there is a restaurant on site which was a plus). Staff were nice and helpful. I would stay again if I needed a place to stay.
This place is a diamond in the rough. The room was clean and warm.....the VIEW is amazing! The innkeeper is lovely and made to order breakfast....fricken brilliant! I will 100,,% be back.
I stay here everyday for a music festival. The hotel is cool, funky and not cookie cutter which I love in a hotel. Rooms are clean, staff is friendly and helpful and the free breakfast is great. Not a continental breakfast but a real breakfast menu.
Lovely place, but the mattress in room 34 badly needs replacing-very uncomfortable-the one closest to the door. Love the gardens and the little beach and Sarah the innkeeper. Also, plastic chairs on balcony need replacing with sturdier ones.

Lovely setting by the river. An older property, but the inn had charm. Breakfast was delicious.
Loved our weekend stay at theWayside Inn! Sara (owner) was very helpful and we are looking forward to our next stay in 3 weeks. Beautiful property really nice breakfast in the dining room next to the river. Highly recommend!
The space provided exactly what we needed, affordable bed and breakfast. This very old inn had charm. The history and historical content was of interest to us. We very much enjoyed the sound of the river flowing out our balcony! The attention to gardens being resurrected was appreciated. Sarah, the inn keeper and owner, made special accomidations to meet our travel schedule! The area is beautiful and so much to explore. We would definitely stay at the Wayside again.
My wife and I had a wonderful stay at the inn. Super friendly staff. Great food and drinks. The owner is attentive and made sure we were enjoying our stay. Clean, safe and quiet room.We would absolutely stay here again if in the area.

The property was very uniquely positioned next to a nice river and we enjoyed the views! We had to be careful not to break the old plastic chairs on the balcony. The room was clean but still in an old fashioned state and could use some upgrading. The breakfast was very good, (you chose they made fresh) and we sat looking out at the river and a lovely flowering garden. Very New England
