Lorraine's unplugged cabin in the woods offers a cozy, secluded retreat that campers have consistently praised for its peaceful atmosphere and thoughtful amenities. Visitors often highlight Lorraine's kindness and attentiveness as key factors in their enjoyable stays. The cabin is well-equipped with everything from cooking supplies to games, making it easy for guests to unwind and disconnect from the hustle of everyday life. While the setting is idyllic and private, some guests have noted the presence of bugs, so it might be worth coming prepared for that aspect of the great outdoors.

Wonderful Experience!

My boyfriend and I stayed here and had a wonderful time! We went at peak leaf peeping season, so not only were the trees beautiful, but the peace and quiet of the cabin was the perfect getaway from the crowds at the end of the day. Lorraine was very responsive, helpful and kind. Would definitely go back again!

Serenity!

Lorraine’s unplugged cabin was such a nice, comfortable, and welcoming place to call home for a weekend trip to the woods. The cabin was privately secluded and was loaded with anything and everything we would need. Lorraine was one of the nicest and warmest people I had ever met. Highly recommend!

Perfect getaway with friends

Group trip

Lorraine's cabin was perfect for a weekend getaway with some friends! Very secluded and wonderfully quiet other than the wildlife. Even when it rained it didn't ruin our trip, we just sat on the enclosed back porch to play games. Lorraine was welcoming and accommodating to make sure we had a pleasant weekend...we will be coming back!

We loved staying at Lorraine’s cabin. The screened on porch was an amazing spot to hang out and play games. The swing chair was so relaxing! There were lots of amenities inside including cookware, games, and things like that. The toilet was really nice and clean. Bring lots of bug spray and check for ticks!

Best night sleeps ever

This is my second time around at unplugged this time celebrating my birthday. Lorraine left me homemade jelly and a cute little birthday banner to welcome me to my stay. The bed is amazing!!! It's exactly what I needed to head into the next year of life. Hope to make it a yearly birthday tradition.

We can’t wait to come back!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin. It was everything we needed and more to disconnect for the night. That was the most restful night sleep I’ve had in a while and the bed is so comfy. Lorraine was so accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. Beautiful mountain view on the walk from the car. Very private and had everything we needed. Fantastic area with hiking and food options galore!

Beautiful cabin nestled in the wood

With pets

This beautiful wooden cabin is nestled in the woods away from everything! We enjoyed a long weekend with our kids and dog. We loved the space immensely. It is near Winslow National Park with great hiking trails. Lorraine was helpful in providing additional information.

Unplug and enjoy!

Group trip

We enjoyed our 2-day stay at Unnplaged cabin and highly recommend it. The cabin has everything that you need to spend a relaxing time in nature. Don´t be afraid of no electricity - there are plenty of flashlights + you can always make a fire outside. We appreciated the grill a lot. Very clean and pleasant. Communication with the host, Lorraine, was smooth. Enjoy!

Quick getaway

With kids

It was private and relaxing to hand out at the cabin and near the cabin. The screened porch was the best part so that bugs don't get in! Lorraine met us and made sure we have everything and checked in also. We loved our stay and all the supplies we needed were inside so that was a nice surprise!

My partner and our pup had a great time here! It was quiet, clean, and thoughtfully stocked. We had a great mix of hanging out at the cabin (reading! Cooking! Hot chocolate!) and hiking in nearby Great Gains forest. The perfect weekend getaway from Boston.

Group trip

This whimsical cabin was the perfect place for us to unplug and appreciate the little things in life. Despite the cold temp, we stayed plenty warm and enjoyed moving around the various lanterns when the sun went down. Watching the sunset from the porch was a truly magical experience through the winter landscape covered in snow deep within nature. Thank you for the most perfect relaxing getaway Lorraine!

The Unplugged cabin was truly a home away from home to us and we will surely be back. Fresh air, quality time, stunning sunsets, bonfires, deep talks, plenty of laughs and what felt like the longest most relaxing days and nights. We wanted to get away and recharge right before the beginning of the school year and this place didn’t disappoint. Lorraine is THE BEST host!!

What a great weekend!

I brought my little backpacking stove, and cooking supplies and had no need for any of it! Loraine’s offgrid getaway is the perfect place to reconnect with nature while not being forced to eat sad off grid food and sleep in a tent in the rain. We had a lovely fire in the large firepit which the warmth of seemed to attract every toad in the tri-state area which proved our city dog is indeed a city dog. We stumbled upon a white water river festival in Franklin; and went swimming in a private cove of lake winnisquam with the pup. An amazing weekend all around. Cabin is beautiful and well stocked with battery powered lamps and cookwear etc. Comfy bed. Awesome stairs to the loft that makes it so you don't have to climb a ladder OR crouch (you can stand up the whole time) Would definititely recommend!

Perfect Peaceful Getaway

The perfect peaceful and serene getaway! The cabin is secluded and stocked with everything you need. We were able to grill, play games, lounge on the hammock swing on the screened in porch, hike to a waterfall nearby and end the night with a toasty campfire. Lorraine was an amazing host! Greeting us upon arrival with a bright smile and making us feel so welcome.
