"We recently stayed at the Glen House for a reunion of college friends. The house was magnificent! Beautiful, comfortable, every amenity you can think of. It was the perfect setting and very accommodating for a large group. It offered plenty of space and entertainment for all, beautifully decorated. The property was very clean and cared for and the owners were very helpful. I would certainly recommend this property to others and we will definitely be back for another gathering ourselves!" - Tammy Fuller, Mass, 11/05/09 (inquire/book)

"We had our wedding in the back yard of the Glen House and it worked out perfectly. All of our immediate family stayed at the house with us, which was a great opportunity for our families to get to know each other. The view was magnificent during the ceremony. The movie theater and video games were a big hit with the kids and kept them occupied. Everyone had such a great time that we are hoping to come back in the future. I would highly recommend this home for a family reunion or a wedding." - Liz & Gary, Seattle, WA, 10/19/09 (inquire/book)

"We had a wonderful time at the Glen House. The view from the deck was amazing, first of all. It's location is even better: right next to Sunday River, right on the golf course, hiking etc. A ton of outdoorsy activities close by for any of the 4 seasons. The owners were extremely accommodating to our stay. We were taken care of well. The house itself is enormous and beautiful. The hot tub and steam room were our personal favorites, as well as watching the sun set on the deck and grilling by the pool. I would absolutely recommend this place for any large group looking to get away and relax. The website does a great job of portraying the house, and it is even more impressive in person." - The Heights, Chestnut Hill, MA, 10/19/09 (inquire/book)

"We recently enjoyed a wonderful family reunion at the Glen House - arranged through "VRBO" on the web. . . .the property was everything that we had hoped it would be - and then some! The home is extremely well-equipped and maintained; and the owners provided the "little things" that were needed or forgotten (Ex.: an electronic baby monitor) The location was a bit remote from town, but easily accessible to local activities. Directions and suggestions to find local points of interest and activities were plentiful and complete. The house was spotlessly maintained when we arrived and provided every amenity that was advertised - it was perfect for a large family reunion (we had 23 people staying in the house) - and yet provided some "quiet spaces". The pool, hot tubs (2) and home theatre provided great entertainment for the children, teen-agers, and adults - as well as a suitable "stage" for our family's skits. The owners were readily available to answer all our questions and provide information, but were never intrusive. Local shopping in Bethel was easy - the "Good Foods" store on the main highway provided excellent service (try their ribs!) and fair prices. The area activities we enjoyed included golf at two local courses, swimming in local swimming holes, excellent hiking (the Appalachian trail is only a few miles away) fly-fishing, and gorgeous views from the deck of the Glen House, which overlooks the first hole on the Sunday River Golf Club. We would recommend this property "without reservation" to anyone planning a family reunion, wedding, ski trip - or other large group activity in the western Maine area - - you won't be disappointed!" - Poppi, Spokane, WA, 10/19/09 (inquire/book)

"Our family, a group of 24 of all different ages, had a wonderful week-long vacation at the Glenn House. The house was more beautiful in person than it was on line. We swam in the pool,soaked in the hot tubs, played golf, played pool, watched movies, played games, went horseback riding, hiked in the nearby park and made wonderful meals using the inside and outside kitchens. We all hated to leave!" - Jeanne Marie, Springfield, PA, 10/19/09 (inquire/book)

"The Glen House exceded all of our expectations. Our dream wedding turned into a dream week with friends and family. The back yard overlooking the mountains was the most beatiful spot for a wedding. After the ceremony there are so many places for people to gather and socialize. It couldn't have been more perfect. The property itself is amazing. It was made to entertain. All of my guests have expressed interest in coming back for an anniversery/reunion party. I would recomend this house to anyone." - Darren and Carla, Lynn, MA, 10/19/09 (inquire/book)

"What a fabulous home and perfect for all ages! We had our family reunion of 20 and the house was perfect. Great setting on the golf course and wonderful activities around the area; kayaking, canoeing, hiking. And when it rained there was so much to do at the house; pool table, movie theatre, hot tub, fuse ball, that no one was ever bored. I would highly recommend." - Trip Planner, Leesburg, Florida, 10/19/09 (inquire/book)

"When one travels as extensively as we have, one gains enough lodging experiences to know and appreciate the quintessential abode to rest yoru weary head after a long day of skiing Jordan Bowl.

By far one of the best Passover Saders was celebrated by our family here. Thank you so much!" - The Sochets, Florida, 04/10/09 (inquire/book)

"Glen House is so much more beautiful when you arrive, then you can see in the pictures. Pictures don't show the spectacular views, the golf course, the beautiful landscape around the house. There are so many beautiful details in this house , you have to see them for yourself ! Each and every bathroom is beautiful, each bedroom has its own personality , the beds are so comfortable, you will not want to get up ! The view from bed in the morning is breathtaking! The theater room is fabulous... a great place to spend quality family time...and what is better then popping your own movie theater popcorn ! I look forward to spending many more family times and times with friends at this beautiful home, Gretchen and Kris have (and always do ) pay great attention to every detail. We LOVED staying at Berner HAus over the years, and now love to spend time at Glen House as our family has grown ! This house is so beautiful, you will not want to go home! We had a wonderful stay ." - Penny Horsfall, Maine, 10/22/08 (inquire/book)

The guests were amazed by the beauty of the spectacular views. John and I enjoyed the serenity of it all after our guests left.

"Hi Kris & Gretchen, I wasn't able to arrive until Sat. morning. I just wanted to thank you for an incredible weekend. We were there to celebrate my Dad's 80th B-day, and we couldn't have found a more perfect place to stay. There was so much room for everyone and so much to do. The only problem is we wished we had more time to enjoy it all. I think the kids swam from 9-6 on Sunday and then went back in after dinner. The adults were able to relax to a movie last night - what a great room!!! Hot tubs, steam rooms .... I could go on and on. It was the perfect place for five families and my Dad to have a great family reunion. Thanks for everything! Sue Bothwell" - Sue Bothwell, Connecticut, 06/20/07 (inquire/book)
