WINTER AT MIRROR LAKE LODGE:

You can park your car and not leave for a week - there is so much to do on and around the property - swimming, paddling, hot tub, hiking, fishing, lawn games, volleyball, board games, cam fires, chasing fire flies. Hubbard Brook is just up the road, as is a sledding hill and miles of trails for hiking, cross country skiing, and snowshoeing.
But if you do want to take a short drive for adventures:
10 minutes from the centers of North Woodstock and Lincoln with restaurants, shops, and swimming holes
12 - 15 minutes from Loon Mountain & Lincoln Woods
20 minutes from Franconia Notch & Cannon Mountain
25 minutes from Waterville Valley resort and town center

YEAR ROUND
Year round family fun and memories: Franconia Notch is a famous destination for fall hiking and scenic drives. Many sugar shacks in the area boil syrup in the early spring. If you decide not to spend your evenings grilling or cooking at the lodge, there are also many restaurants and microbreweries a short drive a way.
THE LODGE
The Lodge is in a barn built in 1890 when a lumber company owned the land and before the now beautiful forest grew back around it. It still has many visible elements of the original structure but has been thoughtfully renovated to be comfortable with modern clean details and efficient heating.
