Lakefront Rumney Retreat w/ Shared Dock & Beach!

Plan your next New Hampshire lake escape to this charming 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom vacation rental cabin on Stinson Lake! Nestled in a tranquil setting, this quaint cabin offers hardwood flooring, skylights, comfortable home furnishings, and a sunroom. Explore Lake Stinson, work on your tan on the shared aluminum dock, read a book in the sunroom, or simply explore the White Mountain National Forest! If you're looking to venture further, explore cates at the Polar Caves Park!

-- THE PROPERTY --

NH Room and Meals Tax License #102801

Bedroom: Queen Bed | Additional Sleeping: Twin Cot (Available Upon Request)

Nestled in the pine trees surrounding Lake Stinson, this rustic retreat is the perfect place for a couples retreat or a small family getaway. Spend your days exploring the lake on one of the shared kayak, canoe, or paddle boats and your evenings sipping sunset cocktails in the verdant yard!

Start your morning with a cup of hot coffee in the front sunroom and wait for your loved ones to get out of bed. The interior of this A-frame unit features a vintage lake-house theme, ample natural sunlight, vaulted ceilings, and exposed wood beams.

When your stomach starts to growl, make your way into the well-equipped kitchen to prepare a hearty breakfast with your travel companions. Enjoy your meal at the kitchen table or take it with you to go to eat at the lake later on!

Finish off the afternoon by relaxing on the 100-foot private shared beach across the street. Whether you brought your own pontoon boat or are borrowing a paddle boat, you'll love every minute you spend at this scenic lakefront cottage.

* Please note that the homeowner lives on site, in a completely separate unit with some shared outdoor amenities *

-- THE LOCATION --

When you're not dining at the cabin, be sure to grab a bite to eat at one of the local restaurants by the house. Rumney Rock Restaurant is excellent for a nice family meal. Be sure to grab dessert at Grandpas Dairy Barn afterward.

The lake is constantly praised as a quiet and peaceful spot which is perfect for families or anyone looking to truly enjoy nature. Across the street, you'll have access to a shared dock as well as a private beach made for watching sunsets.

Some other ideas for fun in the area include driving 12 minutes to the Polar Caves Park, watching for wildlife around the lake, or taking a scenic drive through the White River National Forest.

Great Time At Stinson Lake!
We really enjoyed the cabin, it had everything we needed. The view from the front porch of the cabin is breathtaking. Stinson lake was warm and very clean. We had fun jumping off the dock and using the paddleboards. We had several delicious meals at nearby restaurants. This area has a lot to offer. Hopefully we will get to return next summer!

Misled and unfinished
The property setting and lake view is spectacular. We have no problem staying in a "rustic" setting. We do have a problem when rustic is an excuse for unfinished and not clean. Electrical was the first issue with open switch boxes and missing light bulbs. Poor ground maintains and a dirty shower curtain. The lid for the pots and pans had grease still on it. We left a day early and never looked back. Also, no beach existed. If you are looking for a lake setting this place is perfect as long as you can put up with sub par accommodations.

Quiet comfortable lodging
Clean, comfortable lodging. Comfortable beds, some outlet covers missing, good place to crash at the end of the day. Did not use the lake across the street but very much enjoyed the foliage and view. A bit out of the way requiring extra driving to other NH sites. Good valu.

The cottage was a lovely place to get away from the heat ( no air conditioning needed) and spend time in nature, enjoying the canoe, kayaks and pontoon ride courtesy of our hosts. If you like simple and easy this is a great place to land

Lakehouse retreat
Beautiful location with lake views. Very peaceful and relaxing area. Host was friendly and accommodating. Paddle boats and kayaks were available for use. Location was hard to find at first and service is non existent in this area so be prepared! Come prepared to enjoy the wilderness and stock up on food and groceries before your trip! Overall we enjoyed our stay in this charming classic cabin.

Beautiful Lake
The lake is beautiful. It is crystal clear, great for swimming and floating, child friendly, and there were plenty of shared kayaks, paddle boats, and other water toys to keep everyone occupied. The property owner was funny and welcoming. The cabin is clean and comfortable. We will be returning next year. I definitely recommend.

Pristine lake in White Mt Forest
The cabin was cozy and far from rustic. Comfortable bedroom, fully equipped kitchen and living area with a big dining table and some comfortable armchairs, cute sunroom. We set the roll away in the sunroom, it had a pretty thick mattress. No bugs. I liked the big shelving for storage in the closets and pantry. It is a property with a few rental units and a shared common area nicely set up with several seating areas, screen houses, grills, a fire pit, chairs. The lakefront is large with a walkout beach for swimming and several kayaks, a canoe and peddle boats. People are doing different things so there’s plenty of room to enjoy. The lake when we were there was so quiet most days you could hear a pin drop. It ramped up a bit on Friday night but nothing like the more touristy lakes. Stunning views of Stinson Mountain over the lake. The area is one of the most pristine nature areas anywhere with hiking, swimming, boating, tubing, fishing, etc. there are grocery stores, charming ice cream shops, picturesque old town centers, antiques, within a short drive. We loved our stay here. The only tiny complaint we had was, as others have said, the windows in the sunroom. The view is absolutely breathtaking but it’s hard to see out those windows.

Beautiful lake, accommodations underwhelming
The location of the cabins is beautiful and the scenery, pristine nature, and swimmable lake were all highlights of the stay. However, I had to send multiple messages and eventually reach out to the property website to get a response about check-in. The hosts did accommodate a late check-in which was welcome but the mattresses were old and uncomfortable, the floors unswept, cobwebs in the windows, and general uncleanliness. The smoke detector went off repeatedly in the kitchen when only cooking eggs, and there wasn't even cooking oil provided to facilitate cooking. The property has huge potential but is not being cared for in a manner that I would recommend others paying for at the moment.

Rustic is the right word!
This location is indeed remote. If you are looking to go out to dinner or find "entertainment" of any kind, prepare for a 45 to 60 minute drive. The property and cabin are adequate. Some simple maintenance like cutting the grass, neatening up the outside shared spaces and covering exposed wires in the cabin would go a long way in making a better overall impression. Linens and kitchen items are provided, though certainly not luxurious. Everything was a bit of a dish-mash. Skylights and windows needed cleaning -- lots of spider webs in the skylights and the front windows for the view of the lake were old and cloudy. The property owners were very personable and use of water toys was available. They even offered to take us on a boat tour of the lake. The lake itself is the winner for this property. Stinson Lake is beautiful, clean and enjoyable to float on.

Outdated, very little privacy
The owners shared their racist political views with us, unnecessarily. Wires sticking out of walls. No soap, no coffee, zero basics for renter's use. Strongly not-recommended
