Our family really enjoyed Presidents Day weekend at this cozy spot! Warm and comfortable common areas, flexible layout for sleeping options, well-stocked kitchen, and beautiful views over the peaceful creek and forest.
The cabin is beautiful and so relaxing. We loved hearing the sound of the brook especially at night. The brook is a nice place to cool off, especially if Mirror lake is crowded. The landscape is very well thought out. There is no AC just as a fair warning. We didn't mind as long as the fans are moving and the windows are open it was fine. Definitely would go back again.
Great log cabin on a beautiful, private property. The Hubbard Brook access was a bonus we thoroughly enjoyed. Surrounded by the White mountains, the home was perfectly situated for us to enjoy all the adventures the atea had to offer. Joyce was a gracious host, very quick to respond to any issue.Would love to return again!
We loved our stay at Joyceâs lovely Cabin. Our stay included family, and the house was equipped with everything needed to delight young kids and adults alike. We love to cook - kitchen was perfectly stocked! Kids were entertained by a great selection of toys and games. We would stay again!
This is our third stay with Joyce - we missed it last year! 6 adults and 1 small child fit into this house so well, lots of room for parking. The house is well-stocked for cooking shared meals, and there is a fantastic view at a table we used for games every night. Very convenient location, super close to Lincoln. The hot tub is a lovely touch, as is the firepit and walk out to the creek. No complaints - thank you for another lovely experience!
We stayed for four days and nights in late October, using the property as a base camp for hiking. We loved coming back and relaxing after the hike, sitting on the screen porch or outside with a fire and listening to the rushing river. The kitchen was very well equipped and the beds were comfortable, the setting was very peaceful...but it is also a short drive to Woodstock and Lincoln for restaurants and breweries. Joyce was very proactive with communication and information. I will definitely rent this place again if available!
This rental was a perfect fit for our group, which included an infant, two couples and 2 singles. Big but still cozy house in a storybook setting convenient to nearby restaurants and stores. Joyce was a wonderfully communicative host, and we appreciated the many thoughtful touches that indicate this house and place is well loved. Wonderful vacation!
The views are priceless. A stream flowing thru the backyard, plenty of room so you can actually have privacy while others are in the cabin. Love the Log Cabin llook/feel. Thanks Again
Our stay included 5 adults, 1 teenager and a 16 month old toddler. The cabin was very roomy, much more than the pictures depict! Gorgeous home, Joyce has thought of everything. I was nervous to have my toddler inside for 5 days while the rest of the group went snowboarding.. but there were so many toys and games, the backyard was a beautiful snowy playground for my baby. Joyce was incredibly quick to respond to any questions - heed her warning and do not drive down the steep driveway with ice or snow unless 4WD. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Words can't describe the experience we had with our family at this " Perfect Cabin". Plenty of space and privacy that we felt like we did not have to leave to relax. We went up with 8 family members and we all share laughs and smiles the whole week. We literally felt the stress leave when we arrived and enjoyed every second. Hope to be back next year!!!!
Joyce was an excellent host- she has truly thought of everything to ensure a great stay and was friendly and communicative. The property itself was perfect; a short walk to Mirror Lake, secluded for privacy, and nestled right on the river with a hot tub and fire pit. The cabin was comfortable and well-stocked with games and puzzles. We felt so at ease here and would love to come back sometime. Don't miss hiking Mount Washington and Franconia Notch State Park!
This was my first time using VRBO and I was blown away with this property! 4 adults and 3 children loved all the space this cabin afforded us, the kids switched up where they slept and loved having the run of the top floor/loft. The parents loved having the basement level to escape to at night to play board games and enjoy the NBA all star break action on TV, while having a beverage and walking out to the hot tub. The main level was perfect, with the cozy fire place, open floor plan, well stocked kitchen and giant dining table to enjoy family time! We had a blast exploring the grounds and it was amazing how secluded we were with only a short drive to food and activities. Overall great experience! Would love to make it back someday.
Boy did we hit the jackpot with this house! We booked this cabin because it looked like it would be a good fit for our familes (4 adults, 1 teen, 3 kids). It also looked like it had a nice quiet relaxing area outside for us to enjoy the outdoors. Turns out this house is a destination! It overlooks the Hubbard Brook! We can see the mini waterfalls and the water from inside the house. We spent a day sitting in and by the brook. The most relaxing vacation spot! The house is also a 15 min walk (couple min drive) from Mirror Lake - and let me tell you - that is the most gorgeous lake I have ever seen. The lake is clear, and the backdrop if beautiful mountains - without houses, so pure green. The pictures we took at the VRBO house and Mirror Lake look like pictures from magazines. We normally don't like to stay in the same house twice but we will be making an exception for this one - truly the most beautiful vacation home!
A true gem nestled in the White Mountain area of New Hampshire
So, there is a conflict one has in publicly reviewing a cabin like this, and itâs generally this: when itâs spectacular and checks off all the boxes, you donât want other people to know about it and crowd up the reservation list for it in the future! :)
But Iâll avoid being greedy here and tell the world that this is a fantastic place to hang your hat while exploring the Woodstock New Hampshire area, and I say this having experienced several properties in the White Mountains. This cabin has everything:
Excellent seclusion
Heavily wooded
Spacious and gorgeous cabin
Ample sleeping accommodations
A large fire pit out back
A river directly in back
A hiking trail
A screened sunroom
Jacuzzi
Full functioning kitchen
Grill
Location, location, location!
In brief, thereâs a reason why our family has come back to renting this cabin time and time again, and we plan on doing so again, if itâs still available. We always have a great time here, and this location is, hands down, one of the best in New Hampshire for vacationing. Jump on this one. You will not be disappointed.
The cabin has everything you would want in a cabin experience including a beautiful outdoor property! Fire pit, wood, hot tub (although we never went in), and chairs overlooking the river created a peaceful "camp" experience. Joyce was fantastic with replying to any questions I had and also reached out to confirm we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.
Joyce is a super host! So responsive and easy to communicate with. The cabin is set in the woods surrounded by beautiful tall trees and a babbling brook. The cabin is very clean, spacious, cozy and comfortable. We will definitely book again!
The cabin is great and the location is beautiful. We had a wonderful cozy Christmas. Many thanks to our very responsive host Joyce. I would highly recommend! Can't wait to come back.
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house. The stream that runs through the property is very scenic and gave us beautiful memories to cherish for years.
We loved Joyce's property so much that we came back the following year. Perfect for socializing over dinner and playing games, and such an amazing spot to check out the fall foliage - only ~10 minute drive into Lincoln! Very close to a plethora of hiking trails. We had a blast - delightful firepit, comfy hot tub, and plenty of relaxation in this private, scenic spot.
This was our first VRBO experience and a perfect first extended vacation for our family, weâve always done mini trips while the kids were younger. I can safely say all the kids now 9, 10 and 13 will have fond memories of our stay at the cabin in the woods. The brook out back is bonus of the property, my son was out there looking for treasurers everyday and I even enjoyed hopping from rock to rock. The sounds are so peaceful and the views are good for the soul. There is even some chairs and a meditation rock to overlook the brook. I used the hot tub everyday and am convinced I now need one. It was very clean and well maintained. I used it morning, afternoon and evening various days. The jets seem to be on a timer, fair warning when they shut off for the first time, you did not break the hot tub lol. The inside of the Cabin is spacious and clean. We had two kids upstairs in the loft, one on the main floor and my husband and I took the bonus area not pictured downstairs that has a sitting room with a big TV, essentially a 5th bedroom and a 3rd bathroom. We all loved our privacy. It is not a primary residence so certainly bring any and personal supplies you think youâll need. There are pots and pans for cooking. Some things we went back out for were shampoo and conditioner, laundry detergent, a lighter, tin foil and extra toilet paper. The good news is everything is so close! The store is maybe a 15 minute drive, as are most activates. We did the Lost River, Clarkâs trading post, the loon mountain gondola, alpine adventures ziplining and the flume, all less than a half hour away. The linens are on the older side, which didnât bother us as they were clean, however I wish I would have brought my own pillow from home. All and all it is a wonderful space for a peaceful, relaxing and scenic family vacation. When it came to leaving my son is as very upset, he loved the place so much he wants us to buy it and made us promise to go back someday lol. Again, we will all remember the cabin in the woods fondly and the memories we now share are priceless. Thanks Joyce for sharing your home and helping us have a wonderful family vacation đ
This cabin is a special place. Sitting right on the river, listening to the water flow was serene. The decor and amenities were all we could ask for as well. We really enjoyed the fully screened in porch and finished basement.
My family and I enjoyed a beautiful and relaxing stay in the fairy tale cabin. We had plans to do lots of day trips as the house is centrally located to great hikes and family friendly activities. However, most days we just chose to relax and soak up the peaceful atmosphere. Joyce is truly one of the most solicitous hosts we have ever worked with. At one point, I texted her to say what an amazing time we were having and she texted back: "Anything I can do to make it even better?" Incredible!
The lodge is very secluded, yet only a few miles from I-93, and 2 hours outside of Boston. Hubbard Brook, the White Mountain National Forest, Mirror Lake, and much of the best skiing in the Northeast is at your fingertips, Mother Nature at her best.
