Rustic Cabins on Squam Lake

 

 When you hear “rustic cabins in New Hampshire,” you might picture rough, bare-bones lodgings far from modern comforts. But at Cottage Place on Squam Lake, rustic is a celebration of charm, simplicity, and a slower pace — not a compromise on comfort. Our cabins offer the perfect blend of woodsy warmth, thoughtful amenities, and a genuine sense of home that makes cozy cabin stays in New Hampshire something truly special.


Warm Wood Paneling and Natural Surroundings

 Step inside one of our cabins and you’re welcomed by rich wood-paneled interiors that evoke the heart of New England’s cabin tradition. The smooth, natural wood walls create inviting spaces that feel both timeless and cozy. Surrounded by lush trees and scenic lake views, our setting invites you to slow down and savor the beauty of nature.


Simple Comforts, Thoughtful Charm

 Our cabins focus on what matters most: comfort and connection. Rather than the flash of luxury, you’ll find simple but well-considered touches — plush bedding, cozy sitting areas, and efficient kitchens ready for your homemade meals. This is rustic reimagined for today’s traveler who wants to disconnect from the rush and reconnect with family, friends, and nature.


A Place to Disconnect and Reconnect

 In a world that never slows down, our cabins offer an opportunity to step away from screens and schedules and embrace the rhythms of the lake and forest. Imagine mornings spent with coffee by the fireplace, afternoons kayaking on Squam Lake, and evenings gathered around a fire pit under a canopy of stars and pines with no light pollution.

This is more than a cabin stay; it’s a chance to find peace in simplicity, to build memories without distraction, and to experience a true rustic cabin stay in New Hampshire.
