Weekend Trip to White Mountains Dear Bear Campsite

This was an amazing getaway. The cabin had everything you could need. Craig and his family were really hospitable. Always kept great communication. The cabin is insulated and kept us warm throughout the night. Craig gave us extra blankets and was kind enough to set up the hot water shower for us. The instructions to get there were pretty exact. The location is amazing. 15 minutes to Franconia Notch. Quick 5 minute drive to downtown Littleton. Lots of options to eat there and Bethelem. (Try the skirt steak at El Mirador Restaurant or the Thai Donuts at Taste the Thai). A power generator is available in the cabin for charging your stuff as well.

The cabin had everything I needed. It was a comfortable bed in a solid little shed. The property was nice, though the outdoor spaces could have used some organizing/feng shui. I would not want to stay here to spend quality time on the property, but as a home base for hiking and checking out surrounding areas, it worked great!

2 nights at White Mountains Dear Bear Campsite

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.

Weekend Trip to White Mountains Dear Bear Campsite

Craig was a wonderful host. He met me when I arrived and showed me around, and then let me keep to myself for my stay. I stayed in the cabin, and it had good amenities. It was a very quiet peaceful place to stay, and I got to see lots of wild turkey which was fun. I plan on returning if I stay in this area again in the future. Thanks Craig!

Weekend Trip to White Mountains Dear Bear Campsite

I love staying in the shed on Craig’s land. It’s very cute and cozy! It was super cold, but the propane heater kept me warm. I feel like I would have enjoyed myself a lot more, if it was warmer outside, I could’ve used the outdoor shower. I would definitely stay again! But it really is a great location. Three minutes from downtown Littleton and within half an hour to the Franconia notch and Crawford Notch.

Where to go

North Conway

A 10-minute drive north of the town center, North Conway is well-known for its outlet stores and is home to the Conway Scenic Railroad, which operates historic railway routes aboard vintage trains that depart from a Victorian station—one route takes riders from North Conway through the Crawford Notch mountain pass.

Echo Lake

Just outside North Conway, Echo Lake is a popular swimming spot encircled by a trail. Other trails lead to the top of the 700-foot Cathedral Ledge, from where views of the Saco River Valley are spectacular.

Bartlett

A 25-minute drive northwest, the town of Bartlett is home to Diana’s Baths, a series of waterfalls lying along Lucy Brook in Bartlett, which is fed from Big Attitash Mountain. Just south of town, Bear Notch Road is one of the best places in the Mount Washington Valley for spotting moose, deer, and other wildlife.

When to go

While spring and summer are ideal for enjoying the trails and lake activities on offer, these are the busiest seasons so you may encounter crowds and full parking lots at popular spots such as Diana’s Baths. Fall and winter have their own appeal with the landscape busting into rich colors in fall and an abundance of snowy activities on offer in winter, from skiing on Cranmore Mountain to snowshoeing through the White Mountain National Forest.
