Family, Kid Heaven-- lakefront adventure- spacious log cabin, cook's kitchen!

Beautiful private rustic log cabin nestled on a lake in a wild woodland. In summer, the sandy beach, boats, raft and dock hold you as you play for hours in the spring fed water. Watch for eagles and great blue herons from the huge porch as the kids stalk chipmunks, swim, kayak and fish by the waterside deck, catch fireflies in the evening, roast marshmallows by the fire pit; Hammock time is key for the full experience!! September brings hot days with cool evenings, as the crisp air starts the turning of the leaves to orange and gold. By October, it's a leaf peepers’ paradise, and the lake and backroads are aflame in red, purple and bright orange.
Our spacious cabin is 1700 square feet big and has 3 bedrooms (two queen beds, 3 twins, one futon: sleeps 8) and 3 bathrooms; additional space includes a semi finished basement and a loft that serves as a game room, art studio and extra bedroom. The porch overlooks the lake, with easy boat launch and seating, raft, dock, three kayaks, one canoe. Renowned for bass fishing.
History comes to life here, as the old country store motif fascinates kids and adults alike. Kids love to "shop" at the counter which is a huge old country store display case with original cash register
Yet here you will also find all the modern comforts you long for during your special vacation. Great open kitchen, well -equipped for cooks; new gas stove and silent dishwasher; dining area and comfortable, spacious family room with vaulted ceiling. Leather recliners face the stunning large stone fireplace and smart TV, with full internet service. Check out the camp book shelf for info about local hikes, the White Mountains nearby, classic reads for kids and adults.
There is a bathroom on each of the three floors, one with a genuine deep clawfoot tub
Basement lower level space with extra large shower, pool table, couch, DVD old movie collection, lots of games, cozy child play space.
The full length porch overlooking the lake can be the center of your gathering, as seated on old fashioned camp furniture you watch folks jump off the float as the sun retreats over the foothills.
Comfortable beds, private spaces, local artwork, lots of classic vacation reading stocked on old bookshelves as you take turns on the hammock; lie on the porch couch, watch the chipmunks and squirrels play in the treetops as herons and eagles fly by. Watch for deer, hear loon calls at dawn. Enjoy the swing set, sandbox and child chairs for the grandchildren in our safe and child friendly home.
Quaint local restaurants and beautiful New England scenery will draw you back here time and again. Local trails nearby and Appalachian Mountain Club hiking north in the White Mountains; shopping in North Conway. Special restaurants in the lovely town of Wolfeboro, a 20 minute drive from camp.
So much to do and see in all weather and time of year. The views of fall leaves are unbeatable. Bring your paints, the art studio space is there for you in the loft, near the poker chips and the extra futon bed.

Relaxing Lakeside Family Retreat
We had a wonderful stay!!! The home is absolutely perfect, wonderfully decorated (including the owner’s own lovely artwork!) - everything you’d possibly need is there and available to you. My son and his girlfriend kayaked the entire lake and loved it. We all enjoyed the fire pit overlooking the lake, the covered porch and playing several games of pool in the basement. Kitchen amazing as well. Too much more great stuff to describe. One of our best VRBO stays. Thank you Mary and Frank!!! We’ll be back again!!!

Relaxing girls weekend!
My friends and I were looking for a nice relaxing, kid free weekend. We got exactly that. It was so peaceful. Sitting on the back deck over looking the water, watching the morning sun gleam off the water all the way to watching the beautiful sunsets. Everything was just so relaxing!!! I highly recommend staying here for complete peace!!

So comfortable and relaxing!
We loved our stay at this spacious, comfortable, and interesting cabin. The porch was our favorite place to relax, read, and look out at the lake. The hammock and the little rocker right next to the lake are also pretty great! Inside, the whole house is a curated work of art, with fascinating antique pieces, lovely original paintings, and delightful curios in every room. Comfortable beds, fabulously comfy recliners, a kitchen stocked with everything you might need … we can’t wait to return. Next time we might do some kayaking, but this time we just hung out and soaked in the restful atmosphere that we had hoped to find, and did.

Lovely location and owner
My family and I had a very relaxing stay at Mary's cabin. The lake is beautiful and right there! The cabin had all the amenities we needed (and then some). Mary was very responsive and caring. Thank you, Mary!

Rustic Cabin
This cabin was adorable with lots of antiques and art work by Mary. We had a great time although the weather did not cooperate. We used the kayaks and ventured onto the lake which was quiet and serene. The cabin has everything you need and then some. Thanks for sharing your home!

We didn’t want to leave.
The lake is so close that you could hear the water lapping when you sat on the porch. Utter serenity. The hummingbirds were flitting from the flowers to their feeder. The owner was so generous with every supply that you could imagine. Mary was always just a phone call away. She’s so sweet and helpful. The cabin is beautiful and clean. Mary’s artwork is amazing! There were antiques tastefully placed. They were such fun and so interesting to look at. The beds are very comfortable. It was fun taking out the canoe. The whole week was just perfect. We did not want to leave. We hope to be welcomed back!

Just What We Needed
Location. We enjoyed The White Mountains everyday and the beautiful cabin on the lake. Swimming right out the front foor. Private beach and dock.Large firepit with plenty of wood. Antique items fill the cabin and Mary's paintings fill the walls. Very comforting at the end of a busy day. Hummingbirds and Loons to keep you company.The dogs shout out a Big Thank You . We would enjoy coming back again. The Gardners

Doesn't get better than this.
My wife and I have been staying at Lake front cottages for quite some time. This is far from a cottage. It is a beautiful home that has any and everything you will need for your stay. If you like antiques and memorabilia, this is the place for you. Awesome covered porch overlooking the lake. Hummingbird visits about every 20 minutes. Well equipped play room with a nice pool table. Frank and Mary were there when we arrived and made us feel more than welcome in their home. They are easily accessible by phone should you need anything. I would most definitely stay there again and would highly reccomend it.
