Crotched Mountain Resort

The Resort & Its Setting

Crotched Mountain Resort sits on the 2nd New Hampshire Turnpike in Francestown, a small town in Hillsborough County known for its quiet, wooded landscape rather than crowds or traffic. Google reviewers (4.3 out of 5 from 181 reviews) describe it as a serene property in a natural setting, with suites that include fireplaces and a casual on-site restaurant — the kind of low-key New England base that suits travellers wanting mountain air rather than a resort strip. It's registered as a lodging business, a real estate agency and a travel agency, reflecting its dual life as both a place to stay and a vacation club property.

The Area & Things to Do

Francestown is rural New Hampshire at its most characteristic: stone walls, working farms, hiking trails and Crotched Mountain itself close by, with the wider Monadnock Region offering hill walking, foliage drives and small-town charm. The area changes dramatically with the seasons — bright autumn colour, snow sports in winter, and quiet green countryside through spring and summer — so what draws visitors here shifts throughout the year. It's a destination for people who want to unplug, not for those chasing nightlife or shopping malls, which is worth bearing in mind when describing the week to a prospective buyer or renter.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Crotched Mountain Resort and are ready to sell, you list it yourself on BidMyTimeshare: you set your own asking price, pay a small one-time listing fee to go live, and we charge 0% commission on the sale — buyers contact you directly through the platform to agree terms. The same applies if you'd rather rent out a week you're not using.

Because Crotched Mountain Resort is an independent property rather than part of a large branded chain, resales here typically go through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a corporate transfer desk. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, both sides should confirm two things directly with the resort: the transfer fee charged to move the deed or membership into the new owner's name, and the current annual maintenance fee, since these figures aren't published and vary by unit and season. It's also worth asking about typical processing times, so your buyer knows what to expect once a sale is agreed.

A resale buyer takes on the week itself and, where applicable, continued access to RCI exchange through the resort's affiliation — but they shouldn't assume any developer perks, loyalty points, or promotional extras sometimes offered on brand-new purchases. It's always worth having the resort or its association confirm in writing exactly what does and doesn't carry over before closing.

Practical Notes for Buyers and Renters

Renters and buyers considering Crotched Mountain Resort are usually looking for a fireplace suite, a quiet mountain setting, and straightforward access to New Hampshire's seasonal attractions rather than a long list of amenities — so be clear and specific in your listing about unit size, season, and the week or points allocation you're offering. Since Francestown is rural, mention that a car is effectively required; there's no walk-to-town convenience here, and guests should plan ground transportation in advance.

Getting in Touch

All enquiries about a specific week, its maintenance fees, or current availability should go through the resort or its owners' association directly, since BidMyTimeshare lists the resale or rental opportunity but doesn't manage resort operations.
