So serene!!

Loved the cottage, it had everything we needed and the view was amazing! Took the pedal boat out a couple of times and it was so peaceful. The dogs loved it too!! John was very nice and made sure we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend staying there.

About the host

Hosted by John Holt

My name is John and I come up from Florida to help my mother out with the cottages, doing grunt work and anything computer related. :)

Why they chose this property

My parents bought the raw land in the 1980s and over time cleared the land, put in roads and services, and built the cottages by hand using rough cut wood from a local mill.

What makes this property unique

This location is VERY private. We are almost surrounded by town and federal land, including almost 4000 acres of Franklin Falls Dam Park. On a typical day we are the only people on this section of river, which is great for fishing, boating, watching nature or just soaking in the sun. Only 4 miles from 93 in central NH so you can zip around to other tourist spots.
