Birch Knoll Motel

Birch Knoll is conveniently located on the main road in Laconia. I was pleasantly surprised when we walked into our room. The entire place inside and out looks like it has been recently renovated. The room was absolutely spotless. Everything in there was fairly new or at least refurbished. The paint the TV. The AC system. The carpeting the bathroom fixtures. All looked fairly now. The sink looked like it had some mirrors on it, but it was in perfect running shape. the beds were new and very comfortable. The Wi-Fi in the establishment worked beautifully. The owners were very friendly and very helpful at checkout. They also had a very nice rack room if you wanted to use that, and very stunning view of the lake, from the balconies, and a beautiful pool that was very clean and well-kept, although it looks like possibly the filtration system might’ve been down one of the days we were there. Across the street they have access to the lake on a couple of docks, so the access is fairly narrow, but if you want to go, Wade your feet in the lake, you can do so. They don’t have complementary breakfast, probably because their lobby area is very small. This motel was built in another era. But they did have free coffee in the morning. The two things anyone who books here might want to be aware of, the whole motel is on a hill, and there’s some considerable climbing to get from one space to the next. Also, if you have trouble with stairs, that could be an issue. The one thing they did not update when they renovated was the door knobs on the rooms, it’s still very old world with locks and keys. That didn’t bother me in the least, but it might be a concern for some. For what we needed this motel for, I give it five stars. It’s close to all the attractions, so getting in and out of the parking lot, I need to exercise caution because of the street, which is of no-fault to the establishment. I recommend this place very highly.

We booked this last minute after a long stressful week. We were greeted by the friendly owners and treated like true guests. The room was very clean and the property was really fun. The upper deck was a perfect place to relax. We walked across the street to find a beach and new deck. We sat on the end and enjoyed the beautiful lake. I have not had such a relaxing spontaneous trip in years! Thank you so much!
