Enjoy the lovely screened porch, and a private walking path down to Deering Reservoir—one of New Hampshire's cleanest lakes. Great local restaurants and pubs, just one hour from the Massachusetts border.

Warm weather guests can enjoy kayaking, canoeing, swimming, fishing, hiking, and more. Bring your own boat! Just minutes from golfing, hiking trails, and historic sites.

The house fit our needs perfectly! The space was very thoughtfully put together and fit 7 adults comfortably. We liked having the house further from the water as it provided a private space to enjoy the amazing firepit. The waterfront was clean and we spent most of our days in or on the water! Our hosts were communicative and very kind. We loved our stay for sure!

Incredible hospitality in this very comfortable New Hampshire home. We went in the middle of winter and every room had updated and dedicated heat sources. They even left us a little snacks and cookies in the fridge. 10 out of 10 vacation and will be going back in the spring/summer to experience the lake in the backyard.

We absolutely loved our stay at the cabin! As a family of 4 and one older dog, we found it even better than the photos and description. It was clean, the kitchen perfectly stocked including spices and every cooking utensil and pot/pan you could need, and the beds very comfortable. Every detail has been thoughtfully added and the layout makes it very comfortable for a family of 4 and probably even more. And we love that they use Who Gives a Crap? Toilet paper as we support the company and use that at home, too! The outdoor spaces were clean and great, too. It's a short 2-3 minute walk down to the lake and the lake itself was so beautiful - clean, the perfect temperature, with very friendly neighbors on either side (including the owners though when we were there it was just their adult children - they were so nice!). There are two canoes and two kayaks available to use, which was great because it let us explore it with our kids (one of whom is sensitive to this type of experience) without committing to a day out or renting something. And he turned out to really enjoy it! We spent one of our best 4th of July's ever on the lake, watching the fireworks show for an hour. Finally, the treats, fruits, yogurt, etc. that were waiting for us when we checked in were so incredibly nice and the kind of unexpected detail that just sets such a nice time for the start of a vacation. We would love to come back and highly recommend this cabin and owners!

Perfect place for a fall weekend getaway! The kids went fishing on the dock, we played boardgames, and we used the corn hole set outside. The fire pit looked great even though we couldn't use it this time (statewide fire ban due to a drought). The hosts left everything we needed for breakfast the next day as well as some drinks - such a great surprise. Already thinking about booking our stay for next year!

My husband and boys absolutely loved the bass fishing on this lake. The neighbors were super friendly and let us plug in our boat for the week so we didn’t have to use portable power for the trolling motor.

About the host

Hosted by Tom & Patty Byrne

Host profile image
Meet Tom and Patty Byrne! Our family has been on Deering Lake since the 1950s. Tom runs an education company, while Patty works for a consulting firm. We have two adult daughters: Lindsay, who operates The Wet Nose Project—a dog walking and boarding company with the mission of saving shelter animals; and Jessica, a medical laboratory scientist. We also have two very friendly Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs, named Scout and Blue. We purchased the Deep Mountain property in 2018 and have fully renovated the log house, providing private lake access through our undeveloped lakefront lot just across the way.

Why they chose this property

This property abuts our family's land so, when we learned it was listed for sale in mid-2018, we made the decision to purchase the property to ensure it was not developed or subdivided. The property included a log home, which we gutted and fully renovated for use as a vacation rental. This project was completed in July 2019, and the house is now ready for guests! We've also added a wooded path that leads to your own private dock and the pristine 323-acre Deering Lake (also known as Deering Reservoir, or by its native American name of Lake Piscataquog—the headwaters of the Piscataquog River).

What makes this property unique

Deep Mountain Lodge delivers the best of both worlds—complete privacy on 10+ acres of forested woodland, and lakefront access featuring your own private dock on Deering Lake. Use our canoes, kayaks, and small runabout (boating license required), or bring your own boat! The home has been fully renovated inside and out. Enjoy our high-end kitchen, three bedrooms (all with air conditioning), lovely screened porch, large flat screen TVs with hundreds of FIOS channels and Netflix, a large yard with fire pit and a brand new Weber grill that is great for hosting cookouts or gatherings. On the lake, you'll find endless opportunities for fun and relaxation exploring miles of shorefront, or boating and swimming in the crystal-clear waters of Deering Lake. Or, bring your mountain bikes or hiking boots and hit our local trails or miles of quiet country roads.
