Tom and Rita's cabin is the perfect little getaway for some relaxation. There were four of us total staying in the cabin (two couples), and we were able to bring our shepherd-mix dog along too! We traveled from New Jersey and stayed for a week.
You don't need to travel anywhere to enjoy the area -- you can sip coffee on the dock, toast marshmallows by the fire pit, and swim in the lake. We loved the kayak, rowboat, and canoe. As frequent kayakers, it was a treat to have the boats ready for our use instead of having to lug our own to the lake.
We also went horseback riding at Carousel Horse Farm, visited the easy trails of close-by Pondicherry Park, and drove to the White Mountains of New Hampshire for a challenging hike up Frankenstein Cliff and Arethusa Falls. We even visited the nearby drive-in movie theater, which was so much fun! On the ride home, we visited Portland for a mailboat ride around the islands.
The best part of our week in the cabin was an early morning rowboat ride in the lake. My boyfriend proposed on one knee in the rowboat! With the White Mountains as a backdrop, crystal clear water, and our bright orange life vests, it couldn't have been more perfect or more our style.
Thank you so much, Tom and Rita, for an amazing week in your beautiful cabin.
