About this house rental

Located in Whitefield, this charming house for £359 per night is a great option for your next break. Welcome to our family cabin on Burns Pond where we have built wonderful memories for many years. We would love to share this with other families to build their own memories of swimming in the lake, and paddling the canoe around the lake in the summer or skating and skiing in the winter. Our cabin is old fashioned and homey. We have a spectacular view, a private dock, and 150 feet of private lake frontage with a canoe, rowboat, 3 kayaks and a supply of life jackets. Inside we have a fully equipped kitchen, lots of board games, books and Wifi. It is fully winterized so it can be enjoyed year round. Our intent is not to furnish a hotel experience but rather an old fashioned camp experience, updated with lots of comforts. We are not able to allow parties or events. We are located on the northwestern side of the White Mountains. In Whitefield itself you can enjoy Sunday morning pancake breakfasts on the common or golf at the Mountain View Grand. In the area there are many activities including hiking (35 minutes to base of Mt Washington at the cog railroad, 35 minutes to Appalachia trail head, 60 minutes to Pinkham Notch), skiing (30 minutes to Cannon Mountain, 20 minutes to Bretton Woods), Santa’s Village (20 minutes), and local summer theatre (10 minutes to Weathervane Theater). You may also choose to shop in Littleton, featuring many varied shops including the Guinness book record holder for the World’s longest candy counter: Chutters. On the water there is a dock with a swimming ladder to get in and out of the lake. Near the water there is another deck on land with a picnic table if you would like to eat by the lake. On the opposite side of the house there is a shaded porch equipped with a grill and a table to eat outside. Our main floor has a living room area with large windows facing the lake, a dining table which seats 8, a kitchen, pantry and mudroom. Also on the main floor is a full bath with a washer and dryer. There is a main bedroom room with a queen size bed and a balcony overlooking the lake. The top floor has 2 bedrooms and a 1/2 bath. One bedroom has 2 double beds. The other has 2 single beds. The rooms have privacy curtains, rather than doors. The walls are rough finished. The walk out basement also has large windows overlooking the lake. The front half of the basement is partially finished with a sitting area. There are also a double bed and 2 single beds in the open area which are available for sleeping. There is also a 3/4 bath with a shower. There is a television for watching a DVD from the collection there. There is no cable and the TV does not pick up any local stations. The back half of the basement contains the utility section - oil tanks, furnaces and the like. Verizon phone service has good coverage in the area. The service from other companies may vary. The Wifi is satellite and usually able to stream videos although infrequently it may be spotty. It is not appropriate for gaming. There is a circular staircase between the 3 levels. While it is not completely handicapped accessible the main floor is useable by people with limited mobility. The house itself requires someone to be able to manage one step. Once inside; the main bedroom, living area, kitchen and bathroom are all on one floor. The access to the bathroom can accommodate a traditional sized walker. The handicap access to the building itself is a driveway ramp which goes down to building but this ramp is not clear in winter. Winter access is by a set of stairs. We do allow some breeds of dogs. Due to allergies and liability we cannot allow any other pets. Please review with the owner for more information. New Hampshire Meals and Rooms License 100058

Family with 2 dogs. Loved the all room, the little terrace 1/2 to the lake. Teens were delighted with their basement space. Ruth was there to greet us with quick wonderful info. Canoed, kayaked. Went on adventures. Loved all Ruth’s little touches. And finished a puzzle.

My wife and I together with my sister-in-law and brother-in-law spent 3 lovely weeks here this fall. With just a few exceptions it was a great place for what we were looking for. We enjoyed stunning autumn foliage overlooking beautiful Bynes Lake. We Hiked, canoed, kayaked, took in the sights, ate in, ate out, caught a show, visited family, etc. etc. A few issues kept us from giving a 5 star...more like 4 1/2 stars. No network tv, so no football, the place is rather cluttered....I counted 75+ coffee mugs! Our in-laws weren't thrilled with staying downstairs but they were ok with it. Overall we had a great stay and enjoyed ourselves!!

This property is just as listed with tons of extras. House allows for private areas to rest/sleep as well as comfortable gathering spots for lots of laughter. The pond is clean and beautiful and the dock was our favorite (and most used) hang out location of the week. The kayaks were available with tons of life jackets for all ages/sizes. Relaxing by the firepit while overlooking the pond as the sun sets and moon emerges was one of my favorite moments. We look forward to another week at this property in the future.

Our family had a wonderful time on Burn's Lake. The house has direct access to the lake- it's own dock/ canoes/ kayak/ life jackets! The house is fully equipped for a family vacation and the kitchen is ready to handle cooking for all. Our hostess Ruth went out of her way to make sure everything was perfect. The lake and mountain views from the house are perfect. And then there are the homemade cookies...

This home is truly a gem. The location on the lake with a mountain view is amazing. It is the perfect place to get away from it all and spend quality time with your family. Ruth is the most amazing host I have ever had with a Vrbo property. She was there to greet us at check in and was always very responsive with communication. She left us incredible cookies too! We would love to stay again!
