Stories from the community

1 night at Pine Brook Retreat

The brook at the bottom of the campsite was the most calming sound ever. Spent the day trying to catch frogs with my daughter and had a fire at night. The cabin gets pretty hot and there’s no screen for the door, bring a fan for sure. The tics were pretty bad when went. April was extremely accommodating and the stay was perfect !

4 nights at Crooked Run Adirondack

Great place to camp, if you want to camp with no one around you and private. Would recommend you stay here

3 nights at Pine Brook Retreat

We had a lovely stay at the Pine Brook lodge over the long weekend. So cozy, comfortable and lovely to be in nature. April was extremely attentive & the thoughtful touches really made our experience! We’ll absolutely be back :)

Weekend Trip to Tranquility Plateau

Such a great spot that has all of the basic amenities you might need. It’s close to shops for last minute supplies. My dog and I loved hiking up Mt Ascutney. Thanks so much Caitlyn!

Weekend Trip to Baker Rocks

Cute place! The host was very accommodating! Would definitely recommend…

Weekend Trip to Tranquility Plateau

We loved our stay! The site was so cute, the bed incredibly comfortable, and the outdoor hot shower was lovely. I loved how remote and private it was. We hope to return.

Weekend Trip to White Mountains Barn Door Hostel

Beautiful place, secluded, clean, and great couple's retreat.

Weekend Trip to Waterfront Woodsy Glamping

My husband and I had a beautiful weekend relaxing in the Teeny Tiny House! <3 Chilly weekend but we had a blast. Trailhead up the tracks, gorgeous views, peaceful campsite, hot tub, and so many thoughtful amenities. Just what we needed! Looking forward to returning!:)

Weekend Trip to Waterfront Woodsy Glamping

Me and my two friends had a wonderful stay at the safari tent! Donna was super informative and welcoming. The tent itself had everything we needed including storage and lanterns. They also recently added another outdoor patio area that was tented in that was perfect for food and games away from bugs (which there were a lot of, not that there is much they can do about that). Would come again!

2 nights at Deer Bear Mountain View

Craig was an extremely responsive host...often responding in a few minutes. He stopped by for a bike ride and to show me around the campsite. We stayed in what was a storage shed outfitted with beds, chairs, solar USB charger, a dresser and a 5 gal. water cooler. It was hot and stuffy in there, but we brought a battery powered fan which kept us cool. The shed was extremely clean. We used the composting toilet, which worked fine. There are picnic tables, a fire ring and a fire pit. There is also a gas grill that we did not use. Campsite is a 15 minute drive from Franconia Notch State Park and 5 minutes from downtown Littleton, which has plenty of eateries, a movie theatre and retail stores.

1 night at Baker Rocks

Amazing spot! It was so secluded and the stars at night were amazing! We stayed in the Serenity Dome which was a perfect distance to the bathroom and overlooked a beautiful grass field. It had everything we needed and we will definitely be coming back.

1 night at White Mountains Barn Door Hostel

The Barn Door Bus was an amazing unique experience! The whole place. We have stayed at the campground in the field numerous times and always looked up at the bus wanting to try it. Had everything you could need for an enjoyable stay and it was nice hearing the stream all night. Definitely Recommend!

1 night at Ryegate Away Cabins

Everything about my experience was wonderful. The cabin was very cozy and I enjoyed being able to look at the river and all the nature around. Very dark skies!

2 nights at Toad Hill

Beautiful and secluded spot! Lots of privacy with no concern of running into other campers. Perfect for some good rest on a bed post-backing (or any time, really!)

Weekend Trip to Red Maple Farm Riverside Cabin

What a gem of a site! So thoughtfully put together with a great blend of camping feel with great amenities, including a high quality indoor space, a screened in pop-up with table, great quality outhouse, outdoor shower and sink, etc. We were stocked with wood, bug torches, a great propane grill (bring your camping pans!) and even a great two-person inflatable floatie for the water. The privacy was awesome, though Denise was just a quick text away. The nearby town is precious, with a great coffee shop and breakfast/lunch joint.

4 nights at Waterfront Woodsy Glamping

The trailer was amazing comfortable and cozy and well stocked. It was very unique. The site was large and view was great! We had our dogs with us and they had plenty of room to roam around on long leases.

Weekend Trip to Crooked Run Adirondack

Such a great spot for a weekend getaway! The site had everything you’d need for a great experience. Comfy bed, clean bathroom, plenty of seating, and awesome location right by Crooked Run stream! We did see a fair amount of ticks but we didn’t have too many problems with them. I’d definitely stay here again in the future!

3 nights at Lumen Nature Retreat

Lumen was amazing! It was very clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were great (not typical campground bathrooms)! The tent was cozy and the bed was very comfortable. I loved having the river right outside the back of our tent. The sauna was lovely and felt great after a day of hiking. We will be back :)

Weekend Trip to Pine Brook Retreat

What a gorgeous, peaceful spot - totally surrounded by nature, yet only a few hundred steps from the road. Very convenient for my 1 night stay. Would highly recommend, it would be even more fun to camp with family or a small group of friends. I hope I get to visit again soon! Thanks April!!!

Pine Brook Retreat

I’ve lived on this property for over 40 years of my life, exploring and camping many times in these woods. I decided to build an A-frame cabin perched on the hill that overlooks the brook a few years back and it has quickly become my happy place. This site is a great space to be in the woods, but not too far from things. You can explore the 15+ acres of woods, take a dip in the water, forage mushrooms or just sit under the pines. The cabin is just a few minute walk past the tree line and very private. We are thrilled to share this beautiful peaceful space with you. .
