“The Girls Outdoor Adventure camp was so much fun for my kids that they didn't even want me to pick them up! I'm so thankful for that opportunity for them to try out an overnight camp which was just the style they would enjoy! Archery, yoga, kayaking, paddle boarding, obstacle course, cooking etc. It was perfect. Heather L. did a great job as the host/counselor, my girls loved her and her dog, Rosie. Thank you!!”

“We had a fantastic time at JJ's for our company's annual Christmas party! Julian and Danni went above and beyond (on short notice) to make it a memorable evening for all. The buffet-style dinner was delicious, with their signature hors d'oeuvres followed by mouth-watering steak tips, baked stuffed haddock, and chicken Marsala. The service was top-notch, with drinks flowing freely throughout the night. It was a wonderful opportunity to unwind and celebrate the holiday season with my colleagues. I highly recommend JJ's for any event – they truly know how to deliver a great experience! 🎄👏”

“We hosted my daughter’s bridal shower at Gilmanton Winery today, and it truly could not have been more perfect. The setting is absolutely beautiful — classic New Hampshire charm with peaceful vineyard views that made the day feel extra special. It was the perfect backdrop to celebrate such an important milestone for our family. The staff was excellent. They were warm, attentive, and made everything run seamlessly, which allowed us to relax and simply enjoy the moment with our family and friends. A heartfelt thank you to Rick and Candi for your hospitality and care. You helped make my daughter’s bridal shower a day we will always remember. We’re so grateful. Melissa and Corey”

“I contacted the bakery to inquire about having cookies made for a family event. The owner Laura was incredibly helpful and arranged for our 12 dozen cookies to be delivered to our location packaged the way I had requested. The bakery offered multiple choices for cookie flavors. A few days prior to the event she called me to ensure she had all the details correct and knew when to deliver. With the way service is these days we truly appreciated her excellent communication and reliability. Also the cookies were delicious! Very “homemade” tasting and fresh.”
