About this property

Bright and sunny log cabin on the Pemi River in Thornton, NH. Less than one mile off 93, but feels like a million miles away. Vacationing with friends or extended family? Why stay in separate hotel rooms? Perfect house for multiple families to have fun and make memories.

Walk in the front door and you are greeted by the fun cabin charm. From the massive fireplace, to the moose themed decorations, oh and can’t forget the actual moose head! Mounted moose, deer and bear solidify the vibe.

GREAT FOR ALL SEASONS OF FAMILY FUN!

Enjoy the beautiful views of the Pemigewasset River. Take a break on the Adirondack chairs on the wrap around deck. Enjoy dinner outside on two bar height picnic tables (each hold 8 people). Watch kayakers and canoers as they pass. Then walk down the stairs and head into the river.

Awesome Riverside Cabin

This was our second year at this home. We had another great summer vacation! The kids loved to swim and fish in the river. The fire pit was great. And, the location can't be beat--close to lots of attractions, hikes, and amenities. We will be back!

Family

We had a great time at the cabin. This is a beautiful spot right on the river yet minutes from the highway. Easily accessible to everything. Almost afraid to share lol!!! 6 adults and 4 children and plenty of room for everyone. It was clean and had everything we needed for our long weekend stay. (Except for a can opener which we left for future visits lol)

Perfect NH River Location

A cabin gem! Close to all the great White Mountain spots, and the leaf peeping on the river was breathtaking. The house is a classic log cabin with all the comforts. Didn't get a chance to use the huge fireplace or outside firepit but could tell they were a nice added amenity. Thanks for opening up your home to us!

Perfect vacation Cabin!

Our family (including all age ranges from infant, teen to adult) had an amazing stay on the pemi river! The location of the cabin was perfect, only a short drive to so many attractions - this allowed us the explore the area in the mornings and spend the afternoon lounging down at the river. The house itself is exactly as pictured; spacious, very clean and organized. We spent a ton of time just taking in the views from the giant back deck. Diane was very responsive with any questions we had. I would absolutely recommend this house to my family and friends and hope to return again someday. Thank you again for an amazing vacation!

Great Family Vacation Spot!

This comfortable cabin was the perfect spot for a family vacation. There was plenty of rooms and sleeping options to accommodate two families and a grandparent. Access to the river was convenient and easy for all age groups to traverse. The water was clear and perfect. The backyard was huge and well maintained--perfect for frisbee and yard games. The fire pit was awesome.

Great Family Vacation Spot

We loved staying at the cabin! It was equipped with everything we needed for cooking meals and relaxing in comfort. The location was perfect for our day excursions to Santa’s Village, Storyland, the Flume and swimming in Mirror Lake which was a gem we found close by. The guys golfed and the kids mini golfed there was something for everyone. Thank you for hosting us in your beautiful log cabin on the beautiful Pemi.

Great getaway with family

We rented this place for a week getaway to celebrate my parents 50th anniversary. There were 6 adults, 4 kids (4-8), and 1 infant with plenty of room for everyone. The house was clean with lots of amenities included. Diane was extremely accessible and even stopped by to drop off extra bedsheets. Our kids has so much fun playing in the yard and the river. It was also close enough to do a few day trips, Whale Tail water Park, polar caves, Lincoln. Overall, I highly recommend!

The River House

A great house for a family of 6 adults and 4 children, ages 10 to 6 years, in a beautiful location. All had a wonderful and relaxing time together. Hiking in the Franconia Notch, visiting the Flume Gorge, Clarks Bears for the younger crowd and Loon Mountain for the adventuresome, plus kayaking down the Pemigewasset River. Definitely, something for everyone. Many thanks Tom and Diane.

Wonderful log home in a beautiful, private setting

We went with our adult children and their significant others and had a great time. The house is beautiful with stunning views of the Pemi River. We spent the week playing games, making meals, and eating out at nearby restaurants...We went tubing (with great advice from the owners on where to start) and had a fire in the massive fire pit every night. Close to many attractions. We had a fabulous week, thank you Tom & Diane for sharing your amazing home!

About the host

Hosted by Tom & Diane B

Tom and Diane purchased their dream retirement home and want to share with you. We were both born and raised in N.H. and have a deep love for the area. We are available to assist renters with any questions.

Why they chose this property

This is a truly unique log cabin on an awesome river. The house is just fun, the property is large (about 4 acres) and the riverfront access is breathtaking. Kayak or float down the river, play on the many beaches, or just watch the boaters float by.

The house truly has it all: spacious, located between several fantastic towns, close to mountains, dining, shopping, college sports, swimming, and river sports.

What makes this property unique

Sitting on the farmers porch, watching the world enjoy the Pemi is what sold us on this property. You will absolutely love it!
