Description

In summer, swim in pristine Kezar Lake, explore with boats and bikes for guest use, or stroll or lounge lakeside. In autumn, sit porchside and drink in the blaze of color embracing the hills surrounding Kezar Lake. And warm up to winter using the Inn’s complimentary snowshoes, or skate, ski, or just relax by one of the fires in our lovely common areas.

This inn is just wonderful. The place immaculate, the breakfasts made by Dennis are beyond outstanding. The attention to detail throughout was so refreshing. Dennis is a wonderful and kind host. He has two gorgeous and very friendly dogs that made my kids fall in love with dogs - they are previously both pretty nervous around dogs, but Grace and Angel are so calm and adorable! Besides being close to skiing, the inn is by a very charming lake- I’m a runner and really enjoyed running on the quiet country roads by the lake in the morning. Can’t speak more highly of this wonderful property! Can’t wait to come back.”` - Gabrielle H.`“Lovely quaint inn -in New Hampshire. It is on a lake which is very scenic and lovely. There is a road that goes around the lake for walking as well which we enjoyed. Dennis the owner is a fabulous chef and made us incredible breakfast both times we have stayed there. Two sweet pups Grace and Angel live there also… Makes for a wonderful experience! I highly recommend Follansbee inn.”` - Janet R.`“Follansbee Inn is fantastic! We just returned from a weekend visit for our Anniversary. The room was clean snd bright and overlooked Kezar Lake . The Inn has living room and another sitting room across the hall with a table for board games . The dining room is large with exquisite antiques and the delicious breakfast is served on beautiful China . Denis , the proprietor, has thought of every detail to make your stay comfortable.
