Al and Jackie were incredibly accommodating and welcoming! We had to arrive late, and Jackie and Al were both on hand to greet us and give us the run-down of their home. The common area was quiet and comfortable, with a gas stove and lots of fun Tolkien books to read. (I still think they should call the living room... More

My son and I stayed during our recent jeep jamboree off road trip and this was better than any hotel we have stayed at. Clean, quiet and very accomadating, just what we needed after a long day on the muddy trails. Jackie and Allen were great and even dried our rain soaked clothes. More

I concur whole-heartedly with every review already posted about this B&B. The owners, Al & Jackie, have outfitted their inn with everything necessary for a comfortable stay. They have an extensive library of local guidebooks and toursit info in their pleasant common area. Both rooms have comfortable beds and immaculately clean bathrooms. Breakfast is a treat and don't leave before... More

We had a great evening with Al and Jacquelyn, had a beautiful room to stay in for the night and had a wonderful breakfast the next morning! They made us feel right at home and we actually didn't want to leave the next morning to continue our trip! With maps and directions, provided by Jackie, as to what to see... More

My first stay at a B&B was very peaceful and satisfying. From the moment we drove into the the parking area we were greated with warm hospitality by Al and Jackie. The home itself is very charming, decorated with antiques. Al and Jackie were very informative of the many things to enjoy in the little town of Bethel and the... More

Picture an interesting and historic old house that's been furnished and decorated so that you feel comfortable the minute you open the door. Then add two of the nicest and most welcoming people you can imagine. Now you have Rivendell House. Jackie and Allen are wonderful hosts. They made us feel so welcome with tea and Jackie's wonderful nut bread.... More

Al & Jackie welcomed us into their home & in a short time we felt we were real friends. Because of their knowledge we saw so much more of the area than we had planned. The breakfasts were fabulous--Al's blueberry pancakes were the best ever & Jackies bread was lovely. Nothing was too much trouble, even providing cookies after a... More

This weekend's trip to Bethel, Maine for our 50th Gould Academy Reunion was our first chance to enjoy the hospitality of Al and Jackie. We have traveled around the world and NEVER have we had a better experience. We were with another couple and enjoyed two large rooms, wonderful breakfasts, and ambiance that was superb. We look forward to returning... More

We stayed at this B&B on our August trip from Boston, Akadia N.P., Nova Scotia, White Mountains, and back to Boston. This B&B has only two guest rooms, and it is in a very quiet neighborhood, very clean, comfortable, etc. The best part is its owners, Jackie and Al. They are wondeful people: we had so much laugh during the... More
