A winter heaven, complete with ice skating rink, just 2 minutes from the ski slopes of Bretton Woods!
Welcome to Owl Roost, aka "The Yurt"! A very unique building, it's inspired by a luxury yurt, but in the log style that people love, and with all the comforts of a modern home - including central air/heat, stainless appliances, etc.
Winter wonderland! With about 200" average snowfall, Bretton Woods is one of the snowiest places in New England - one of the reasons the ski resort is rated #1 in New England for snow! And it's only 1 mile away

A Truly Unique Home In A Llittle Slice Of Heaven! With a great stone firepit, our very own beach unaffected by crowds, a soapstone wood stove for those cold winter nights and a modern HVAC system - including central AC to take the edge of the occasional summer heatwave, this just may be the perfect spot for your vacation! In the winter, you will love our location - just 1 mile from the ski lifts, our 2+ miles of trails for walking/snowshoeing/x-country skiing, our on-site 25x45 ice skating rink, the soapstone wood stove, and of course the inviting hot tub. In the summer, not many homes offer this type of amenities: private beach access and swimming or fishing on the Amoonoosuc River, a volleyball court, walking trails, firepit, wildlife watching, and central air conditioning.

A one of the kind home in Bretton Woods, this recently built home was inspired by a yurt and is centered around a stunningly unique central spiral staircase carved around a dead tree with its roots showing in the center. The staircase gives access to the top floor, where you will find a cozy master bedroom with an exposed walk in closet area, a rustic-theme bathroom with pebble and stone shower, and butcher block top vanity. On the same floor, the open balcony-style loft area includes a full size bed. In addition to these 2 sleeping areas and bathroom upstairs, the main level features an additional 2 bedrooms and another bathroom, plus open concept kitchen/dining/living room. The modern kitchen features stainless appliances and wood countertops, and has all the appliances you would expect from a well stocked kitchen, including a Keurig and an Instapot, plus all the pots and pans and utensils needed to make a meal. The living room features a cozy soapstone wood stove (firewood provided in the winter months), and a large wall mounted TV with live TV and lots of on-demand options - from Hulu Plus to HBO to Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+! A don't forget the large deck, with grill, table, umbrella, and even a couple of rocking chairs to chill and soak in the views, plus a gorgeous stone patio with a stone firepit to make memories by the fire and wonder at the multitude of stars or the fireflies that grace us in the early summer months! Plus, you will have access to all the amazing features of the Moose Lodge and Cabins. We have been busy cutting new trails, giving easy walking access to some stunning ecological areas of the property, from wetlands and ponds to riverfront walks. Enjoy a swim in our pristine river, go for a stroll along the shore, tube, fish, and in the winter, snowshoe right in your backyard! Or simply sit on the deck and see if you can spot our resident bald eagle. This is a true memory maker!

3rd return visit!
This is truly a beautiful home our family loves coming here and taking full advantage of all the property has to offer. The house is very clean and comes well equipped. The skating rink and hot tub additions were really the cherry on top. Despite other houses close by you feel very secluded. Highly recommend!

Not the secluded cabin we thought we would be staying at
The picnic table seat broke, it was rotten, the dumpster across the road smelled bad the entire stay and the well line broke Friday night which was a big hassle, had to move to another unit down the road at 11pm which wasn't fun and the hot tub had a bunch of sand in the bottom, the owners cabin across the road was really close, we thought this was more a cabin more secluded, and there are too many rules with fees, we should get some credit fees back for some of what we had to deal with, but we liked the cabin

Wonderful week again!
My wife and I stayed in the Owl Roost cabin for a week with a dog (Heidi) and we had a wonderful time hiking in the Whites during the afternoon, cooking meals in the cabin all week in kitchen with all necessary cooking utensils, reading books and watching movies at night. This is our second year in a row staying in this cabin and hope to be back again next summer!

Beautiful Cabin Summer Trip
I rented this log cabin for a getaway with my adult family in July. The Cabin was perfect as pictured. The log cabin was beautifully designed inside. It was clean . The hot tub was a hit for relaxing before bed. The location was great to explore some local waterfalls including the SILVER CASCADE & have a day trip to N CONWAY for dinner & OUTLET shopping. :)
