About this property

Tucked among the trees overlooking beautiful Alton Bay, this rustic lake cabin is perfect for cozy stays and relaxing lake days. Comfortably accommodating up to 5 guests, this lakeside retreat offers a peaceful escape to slow down and reconnect with nature. Enjoy coffee on the screened porch, afternoons by the water, and evenings surrounded by peaceful forest views. With private lake access, rustic charm, and a warm cabin feel, this hidden getaway offers a classic New Hampshire lake experience.

Inside, you’ll find a warm and inviting living space with rustic wood interiors, a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable sleeping spaces, and a screened-in porch perfect for morning coffee or relaxing after a day on the water. While compact in size, the cottage is designed to provide everything you need for a comfortable and memorable stay.

Sleeping Arrangements:
• Bedroom 1: Queen Bed
• Bedroom 2: Twin Bunk Beds

The property also includes private lake access and a dock area, making it easy to enjoy swimming, boating, kayaking, or simply soaking in the peaceful waterfront atmosphere. Guests can bring their boat & may have a neighbor sharing the dock on the opposite side.

Whether you’re planning a summer lake getaway, a cozy fall retreat, or a quiet escape surrounded by nature, this charming cottage offers the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and classic lakeside charm.

Dock Access: Guests have exclusive use of one full side of the dock. There may be a boat docked on the opposite side. The owners’ other boaters are aware that guest privacy is important and have been instructed to park at the shed rather than the cabin. They are not permitted to linger on the dock, only to load and unload as needed.

Seasonal Dock Notice: Please note that the dock will be removed on November 1st for the winter season. After this date, the dock will not be available for guest use.
