This 100 year old cabin has cozy, rustic charm. It was a great base for kayaking and hiking. You can’t see the lake from the cabin, but are close enough to hear the loons at night. The cabin is the original guest house part of an extended family compound. There’s a guidebook on the table with instructions and details about the property, but it lacked a map of the compound. We spent some time walking around trying to find where to park and where we could access the lake. Trash was to be left in the woodshed, but with no explanation as to where the woodshed was. These details would have felt more welcoming. Instead, we were left wondering if we were crossing over other people’s property. Squam Lake is absolutely gorgeous and the cabin is well situated for paddling to various islands. The town of Meredith is close enough for dinner out.
