This is a great camp to be close to Emerald Pool, Rattlesnake Pool, the Basin, Baldface hikes. It is a 45 min drive to Conway and 90 minutes to Mtn Washington. It is clean and well stocked and the hosts are great to work with.

Wonderful to have a nice place to stay with all the basics (even coffee and washer/dryer) and the pleasure of the woods, Mau's nearby Country Store, and Basin Pond. Keep up the good work!

Wonderful base for White Mountains

We liked that the cabin supports a nonprofit that provides outdoor experiences for urban youth. Kitchen is very well appointed, there are many comfortable places to sit, lighting is good, beds and bedding are good, and there are games and books for all ages. Many hiking trails nearby. Wifi is good but cell phone service is nil throughout the valley and we recommend stocking up on food. Stow's Corner Store & Cafe, the nearest option is excellent, but check their hours.

Great getaway

If you're looking for real seclusion, this is the place to go. The house is surrounded by woods, no neighbors in sight. Exactly what I was hoping for. It is about 30-40min to any stores or restaurants, so this may not be the place for anyone looking to be close to civilization. The house was adorable, spotless, and very well stocked with extra linens, dishes, and even a welcome bag with shampoo, conditioner, and some other shower supplies. The main bedroom on the first floor was beautiful, bright and sunny, and the bed, pillows, and blankets were soooo comfy. Also, Veronica was very easy to communicate with. She made the process of adding an extra day easy. I would definitely stay here again.

Fall Getaway

Enjoyable stay while staying near the White Mountains. Great location, easy access to tons of hiking trails and scenic drives. 10 minutes to Stow Corner Store- great food and staff! Cabin/cottage is small - comfy, especially the bedroom downstairs! Washer and dryer was handy - small kitchen and dining room equipped with all the necessities. Great week in the mountains!

Very quiet and peaceful

This is a beautiful area to visit. The house has everything you might possibly need and is comfortable. I especially liked the fact that there is no television. We drove around a lot mostly because it was so hot so we would hop in the car and take off. I am glad we did that. I was disappointed by the fact that the house is right on the road but the traffic is minimal so no problem there. We visited antique shops in Bethel and Lovel. Everyone we met was friendly. Scenery is beautiful, NH is a beautiful place.

Fall in the White Mountains

A cozy little cabin in the woods, as the fall colors improved every day -- what a treat. A hike, and sunsets over Basin Pond up the road, wonderful meals, ice cream, cinnamons rolls at Stow Corner Store down the road, peace and quiet, or the Fryeburg Fair! Choices during the day and the full moon at night. No better get-away from our too hectic lives....

Hidden Gem

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Thayer Cabin! It truly is a hidden gem. Far enough away from it all that you can unplug, relax and really unwind, yet within an hour's drive from many attractions, like the Mt. Washington Auto Road (incredible, by the way), North Conway Outlets, and Franconia Notch State Park. We asked if moose had ever been spotted on the property, and were told that as moose are timid creatures, only once in nearly 30 years. We were so fortunate that we actually were able to see one about 4 miles north of the cabin!! It was an amazing sight! The cabin is very well maintained, was furnished with all bedding and towels. A supply of firewood was provided. All we needed to bring was our personal items, and groceries. My adult son found a craft beer bar within 30 minutes in Lovell, ME and it was a fantastic find. Ebenezer's Pub had loads of beer to try and the food was top notch!! Another place to try is the Stow Corner Store and Cafe - Fantastic food and delightful home made pastries and desserts - try the Steak Bomb - you won't regret it! And if cinnamon rolls are available, get one-it's enough for 2 to share! Overall, our stay was wonderful; just the right combination of activities and just good old R & R!! We will definitely be back!! Thank you for opening up this lovely hidden gem for folks to get away to! It was a pleasure to stay there!!

Quiet & very relaxing!

My husband & I stayed here with our 3 girls and had a great time. We did a lot of hiking - some around the cabin as well as Mt. Washington, which was only about 1/2 hour drive to the base at Pinkham Notch. The cabin was perfect for us. The girls had their own space upstairs & we had a quiet space downstairs. Everything you could need was there - dishes, towels, etc. - even a few toiletries should you forget something! We built a small fire in the fire pit & enjoyed the beauty around us. There were lots of mosquitos (which we were kindly warned of in advance), but nothing some Off Deep Woods couldn't keep away. There was no cell service, but that was perfect - we needed to get away from it all. We put the address into our phone's GPS, knowing it wouldn't get us to the exact location of the cabin. However, the GPS surprised us & took us to the exact location of the cabin. Overall, it was great & we hope to stay there again!

A Quiet Stay in Nature

I love this place. My family and I have stayed twice now and love it. We can play out side and close to trails to hike, from a quick run to Emerald Pool, to the challenge of the Bald Face range. The house is a little home away from home.

Great place, super location

Even on one of the the coldest weekends of the winter (-5), the cabin was warm, inviting, well-stocked, clean, good wifi. Responsive manager and caretaker. Minutes from excellent hiking. Highly recommend.

Quiet Get -away

A group of my friends and I went here for a week in February. It had snowed a total of 91 inches during the season and was gorgeous. We used our snow shoes in the area to hike around and we also rented snow mobiles in a nearby town on 2 separate occasions. The only struggle we had was ensuring that the drive was plowed to get in and we had a hard time finding the location. During the winter months the road is closed to access the house from the North. There was a blizzard and the sign was covered so it was hard to get to the house. I highly recommend bringing an actual map in the winter months. GPS does not locate the property and there is no cellular data.
