About this property
Rustic Log Cabin #1 - "Rustic Retreat"
Rustic Log Cabin #1 - “Rustic Retreat” is the original log cabin that started it all! You’ll find a king size bed with a ceiling fan above, in front of the fieldstone fireplace along with two Adirondack chairs for enjoying the crackling wood fire in the fieldstone fireplace. This studio style log cabin is complete with a full kitchen and bath w/shower.
The Space
What makes Rustic Log Cabins unique? Wood burning fireplaces in every cabin with the Salmon Hole Brook that runs by each cabin and the outdoor fire pits. Listen to the soothing water as it rushes over the rocks. You can stick your feet in to cool off, sit alongside while watching and listening to the babblings of the brook.
Each cabin has a kitchen, bathroom and wifi. There are 7 cabins on the property, each with a firepit and access to the brook. They all have a front porch and yard around each cabin for charcoal grilling.
We have a trail that leads to the main snowmobile corridor that runs through NH, VT & ME. You’ll pass the artesian well house that delivers water to each cabin.
Rustic Log Cabins are in the White Mountains region of New Hampshire, just 15 minutes away from the White Mountains National Forest and Franconia Notch State Park with its many hiking trails and natural wonders. We are located along an official NH Scenic Byway - Rt. 117, a.k.a. Sugar Hill Rd. - nearby many attractions and small villages. within 5-15 minutes are the towns of Sugar Hill, Littleton, Franconia and Bethlehem.
Within 20-30 minutes are Lincoln and Woodstock, several ski resorts as well as Franconia Notch State Park, White Mountains National Forest and the scenic Kancamagus Highway. A few minutes more are other ski areas, plus Crawford & Pinkham Notches and New Hampshire’s most famous “resident” Mt. Washington.
We are open year round. Every one of our guests has their favorite season and cabin.
Spring - Welcome the new blooms and baby creatures to the region. The mountain air awakens your “scent-ses“ and the blooms preview what’s to come.
Summer - The full complement of the region's outdoor activities await. Hiking, fishing, zip-lining, biking, and more.
Autumn - The Fall adds many colorful aspects as the rainbow of leaves float down into the Salmon Hole Brook, onto its banks and throughout the White Mountain region. Cool nights and clear skies are great to experience with a cozy fire, either outside in the firepit or in the fireplace.
Winter - Skiing, snowmobiling, snow laced forests and that magical time of year can all be had. We are as close as 15-30 minutes from 3 major ski areas and within 45 minutes to others. You can snowshoe from your cabin onto our trail.

Absolutely amazing! Comfortable, clean, quiet and close to whatever you need. The views by the cable are glorious. Highly recommend staying here for a fun get away!
Just what we needed! 1 room cabin, fireplace, no tv, and the sound of the brook behind the cabin was so peaceful! Little towns on either side and plenty of places to shop or eat.
Clean and cozy cabins not too far from amenities. They come stocked with just about everything you’ll need already which is nice. Would definitely stay here again.
This cabin was super clean and easy to find! Super cute and a perfect spot for a vacation in the mountains. The location is close to walmart, shaws, a cute market and restaurants (loved Polly's and The Hungry Bear). The moutains afound the area and amount of trails and parks was beyond amazing. Definitely recommend this location!
The cabin and serene setting were wonderful. We loved the babbling brook, the fireplace and outdoor fire pit, the lack of television, and the precious find of the guestbook. Reading the entries of the guests that stayed before us was both endearing and inspiring. Wonderful time! Thank you Rustic Cabins!
Perfect accommodations for my husband and I to take a break from the hustle and bustle.Close to good food and shops, beautiful surroundings. Property managers communicated frequently to ensure we had everything we needed.
Cute and cosy! We enjoyed our stay in this lovely little cabin. It had all the basics we needed to enjoy our short vacation here.

The cabin is advertised as, “rustic.” Rustic is what we expected. However, we didn’t expect very dirty, musty, and overall poor condition of the building interior, and amenities.
