What do YOU think?
The ‘Pickering House’ in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire, the #4 BEST HOTEL in the WORLD!
Wow.
WOW?
I have never been in (as of yet). One word — COVID. [I did know the previous owner.]
There is just one thing that confuses & confounds I. Even if you are at hotel for your honeymoon (or even a ‘dirty weekend’ or a one night stand) you appreciate the setting of the hotel & the views from your window (especially if you can see them while lying in bed (or doing some other thing in bed). That is what gets me.
No question, at all, at all. The Pickering House has been lovingly & magnificently renovated. Bravo (& thanks). I have already taken quite a few pictures of the exterior. It is a work of architectural beauty. But, the LOCATION & VIEWS.
It is NOT even waterfront. And while Lake Winnipesaukee is LOVELY & I have owned 3 waterfront homes on that lake, I have bummed around the world enough to know that there are better views. [Yes, I have been to the Maldives (#3 above) twice — but, LUCKILY, well ahead of the tourist boom. When I went, there were NO hotels in the Maldives!]
That is it. I am not going to harp on. I love Wolfeboro. I will be going through it tomorrow. I am GLAD for the new owners of the Pickering House. They have spent a lot of money on it. Good for them. But, #4 in the World!
