Weekend Trip to Emma's Escape

It's a little less private than I expected and there is a fair amount of street noise during the day, but the cabin itself is lovely and the location is central to all kinds of things to do in the Ossipee/Conway/White Mountains area. The site has tons of space and a bottomless amount of firewood to burn. That it can accommodate larger groups is a plus.
