About Your Host


Hi, I'm Jason! We have been welcoming Airbnb guests since 2016 and have enjoyed hosting hundreds of travelers to our vacation homes.

I'm proud to be one of the very few 28x Airbnb Superhosts and 27x Vrbo Premier Host!

I've traveled to 44 states, 21 countries, and flown over eight hundred thousand air miles. My first major trip outside the US - 16 days backpacking in Europe right after college - hit me with the travel bug, and I have been wandering the globe ever since. Currently, we live in Newburyport and have vacation properties in three lovely towns:

Farmington, NH

Gilford, NH

Provincetown, MA

I have stayed in multiple Airbnb homes as part of larger groups of friends, and am always struck by the hospitality of our hosts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you allow pets?

We are proud to offer pet-friendly accommodations so you can travel with your furry companions! If you didn't already at the time of booking, please indicate if you will be traveling with dogs in your booking, as we charge a small additional pet fee as part of the convenience.

Some pets shed more than others! We realize that it’s impossible to eliminate all shedding when dogs are having so much fun on vacation, but we would greatly appreciate it if you can help keep pet hair to a minimum by bringing a pet blanket for whenever your pet is snoozing on a soft surface!

Are parties or events allowed?

We do not allow parties or events on the premises, and the maximum occupancy should not exceed 11 guests at any point, 24 hours a day.

We get questions all the time about rehearsal dinners, weddings, baby showers, and all types of gatherings. Unfortunately, we don't have the capacity to accommodate groups larger than our maximum occupancy.

Many towns in New Hampshire set strict occupancy limits based on bedroom and sleeping area counts, and as hosts we plan our parking and trash removal based on our occupancies, so we do not have the capacity for parties and events. Plus, we try to be good neighbors for those who live in our community full-time.

Quiet hours in the Town of Gilford are technically between 8pm - 8am. That's a town regulation.

Please keep all conversations, television, and music at reasonable levels so as to not disturb other residents at Gunstock Acres or our nearby neighbors, especially if you're hanging out outside. Noise travels much more than you think, and our neighbors will complain. (Especially the ones at the bottom of the hill)

Please realize that this is a residential neighborhood, and even though you’re here enjoying Granite Vista for a short time, we need to be good neighbors 24/7/365

How far are the major local attractions from the property?

✮ 5 Min Drive to Ellacoya State Park

✮ 7 Min Drive to Gunstock Mountain Resort

✮ 7 Min Drive to Lake Winnipesaukee

✮ 10 Min Drive to Bank of NH Pavillion

✮ 16 Min Drive to Funspot

✮ 16 Min Drive to Weirs Beach

What are the check-in / check-out procedures?

You will be able to access Granite Vista with your custom door code, which we will send to you during the days prior to your arrival.

Check-in time is anytime after 4:00 PM. Occasionally we accommodate early check-in if we have a gap between guests.

Check-out time is anytime before 10:00 AM

Can I smoke at the property?

Our home is a smoke-free home. Please do not smoke or vape anything inside the building. The smell of tobacco and cannabis is very strong, We do not charge a security deposit because we trust you. But I really must emphasize no smoking or pot in the house. The smell lingers for a long time, and that’s not fair to us or to our future guests, many of whom bring young children to this house (as do we). While small amounts of cannabis are decriminalized, recreational use is still technically not legal in New Hampshire.

Do you charge a security deposit?

Instead of charging a separate security deposit like many hosts do, our rental rates already include a damage waiver fee that covers up to $3,000 for damage to real or personal property of our vacation rental property as a result of your acts or omissions. To learn more about how the damage waiver works, please click here -> https://waivo.io/client/straightforward-strs/ Relax and enjoy your stay with peace of mind knowing that if an accident happens and damage occurs, you are protected with The Ultimate Peace of Mind for Our Guests through Waivo.

Do you have a fire pit?

No, we do not have one. We have had guests bring portable fire pits before, which is against house rules and not covered by our insurance. So please don't do that. We hate having to ask guests to leave early without refund as a result of breaking rules such as this, but we will if necessary.

I love how you decorated Granite Vista! Where did you get that... (bed, artwork, table)

Green Mountain Furniture in Ossipee! Isn't is so cool and over-the-top campy? That's the vibe we were going for, and they are THE place to go for this style of furniture.
