"Justin and I had such a nice time staying at the Cozy Cabin! We stayed for two nights mid-week in January - a little trip up north was our holiday gift to each other. This cabin was a perfect spot for a quiet getaway. I have to say the Cozy Cabin really is true to its name- we felt right at home from the moment we walked in the door. You make it so easy for your guests to find everything they needed in the house and in the surrounding area. And the hot tub was incredible after a cold day of skiing! We look forward to our next visit!" - Lauren, Quincy, MA, 01/19/12( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We stayed a week at the cabin in late September and loved it. Everything you could think of had already been thought of and we just moved right in. Casual and comfortable furnishings worked out great as we spent each day exploring the White Mountains. Perfect for small groups and perfect for dogs. We hope to return soon. Thanks to Karin and Deb for all the love and attention that the Cozy Cabin receives." - Anonymous, 10/13/11( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Logistically and housekeeperingly (just made that word up), so well run! Thanks Karin. All the paperwork and directions were on the mark. The cabin was just as described and we were very relaxed there. The kitchen had everything we needed (coffee too, bless you) and there was soap and shampoo provided in the bathroom and...outdoor shower! Loved that. Well located too with Littleton just a drive away. " - Ann M., Fremont,Ca, 07/04/2011 (VRconnection Guest Feedback)
""Fantastic place to stay" From the moment you walk in the door this place feels like home. Fixtures and fittings keep a real cabin style, spotlessly clean and with more amenities than you would expect - including a full kitchen, hairdryer, washer/dryer, board games, Dvds. A very effective heating system means the cabin stays warm without the fire, but the fire itself is a lovely feature - the garage is well stocked with logs and kindling. The location is private, with great views from the main window or from the deck through the woods down to the river, It's only a short drive to Littleton which has a town centre and all the usual shops, or to Franconia for activities, but if you just want to relax then you can bring your supplies and stay put. The location is fantastic for stargazing (there's even a telescope available), especially from the hot-tub. I'd recommend driving a 4x4 if you're going when it's snowy - a contractor snowploughs the driveway if needed, but there are a few slopes and bends around! The owner and housekeeper are very helpful if needed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to anyone wanting a cozy cabin, either for a secluded retreat or as a base camp for activities in the area.

""Can't get enough of the Cozy Cabin!!!" Just got back from our 5th stay at the Cozy Cabin (coldest so far) and, as usual, we had a great time and didn't want to leave. The place is so clean and comfortable you just feel right at home the minute you put your bags down. There was almost 2 feet of snow on the ground when we arrived and it didn't cause any problems at all. The driveway, porch, and steps were clear, and there was a path shoveled all the way to the steaming hot tub! Between the hot tub and the brand new fireplace we stayed toasty warm even though it was 22 below the first night. I could go on and on about all the things I love about this cabin, but my favorite part is that we can spend a few days up there and truly relax. How many vacations can you really say that about? " - Franl, New Jersey, 02/08/11( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
""Romantic getaway in the woods" Set in private woods, the cabin was adorable. Nothing too grand or fancy (except for the beautiful outdoor hot tub!) but just right for our down to earth tastes. Tons of firewood just waiting to be loaded into the woodstove, all amenities provided in the kitchen with pots, pans and a good stock of spices and seasonings that made it feel very 'homey' to cook up a nice dinner. I also appreciated the shelter provided for the car with the drive-in wood shed. We managed to explore the surroundings - the nearby lake and waterfall. Mostly we enjoyed the peace and tranquility (no traffic noise) of the area. Karen was very professional in arranging the booking and always answered the phone when needed. All in all, we really enjoyed our weekend getaway and look forward to going again. " - Richard, Boston MA, 02/06/11( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"The Cozy Cabin was everything mentioned on the site and far more. My wife and I have been to several other properties that claim to be private but fell short of such a claim but this cabin was definitely and extremely private. It was certainly one of the best and romantic places my wife and I spent for vacation. The hot tub was immaculate and wonderful as well as the fireplace. I was also impressed with how well stocked the cabin was in terms of kitchen utensils, firewood, and fun activity items. Lastly, the location of the cabin was very convenient to nearby Littleton, Lisbon, as well as the entire White Mountain National Forest park. Many thanks to Karin and Deb for providing my wife and I a perfect place to stay in the White Mountains. All in all, the Cozy Cabin was simply amazing and you can be assured that we will be coming back! " - James, North Carolina, 10/20/10( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We had the pleasure of spending our honeymoon in the Cozy White Mountain Cabin in May. We enjoyed the privacy of the cabin and our day consisted of waking up to the sounds of nature, sipping coffee on the back porch, taking a dip in the hot tub, going for nature walks and watching movies by the fire. We could not have asked for a better place than the Cozy Cabin. We have already promised ourselves a mini vacation next year to the Cabin! Deb was so sweet and Karin conducted business perfectly." - Stephanie & Leise, Jamaica Plain, MA, 07/14/10( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Your cozy cabin was absolutely a dream come true! We enjoyed every single aspect of it, inside and out. We are looking forward to returning over and over again, feel like we found a little gem.

"12/28/09 - 1/2/10 The Cozy Cabin was great! We had everything we needed and there were even spare toiletries and food left over from other renters. Everything was well maintained and supplies stocked if anything ran out (eg. firewood, paper towels, etc). Instructions for the amenities and what to bring were clear and detailed and given promptly ahead of time. The hot tub was amazing and clearly well maintained with Deb coming every so often. We were also shocked at such a large and great collection of movies that were available. Both Karin and Deb were available if we needed anything and it was also nice of them to call and check up on us. Deb was such a sweetheart when we were trying to check out. She was so funny and so willing to help us out when our car got stuck on the snow bank. Other than that, we had a great experience at the cabin and with the whole rental process. We wish to come back, maybe in the summer for the summer activities. Elaine + Kevin " - Kevin M., Apt. #1,Je, 01/02/2010 (VRconnection Guest Feedback)
"This was the most perfect cozy cabin. It was clean, well kept and charmingly decorated. It was located in a private mountain setting, that was easy to find and close to Littleton, if you wanted some civilization. We loved sitting with a good book by the warm fire and soaking in the hot tub under the stars. Everything was as described in the listing and we plan on renting again in the future.

"My husband and I stayed for a week in our first vacation since our honeymoon. This place was absolutely fantastic. It was perfect for a relaxing, secluded getaway, though could have easily been action packed if we had wanted it that way. I'd recommend bringing some bottled water, as the tap water is fine for cooking and dishwashing, but we found we didn't want to drink it. There are some maps and guidebooks there for local exploring, but if you plan to venture far, I'd bring your own map. And DO NOT FORGET to bring a camera, because you will not believe the scenery! We could not have picked a better place to vacation, and now that I know how wonderful vacation rentals are, I don't know that we can ever go back to hotels! Owners Response: We are always pleased to hear that guests have enjoyed our cozy, rustic retreat and that the vacation rental by owner experience was a positive one. The water comes from our own well and as is common in the area, iron content can give off a slight sulpher smell. While some people may prefer bottled water, our water is lab-tested annually and perfectly safe to drink." - Julia, Somerville MA, 11/07/09( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)

"The cozy cabin was a great little getaway for us! We spent two nights and went snowshoeing, sledding, and explored nearby Littleton. The cabin was very cozy and clean. The fireplace was so nice in the evenings to get warm by. By the fireplace is where I proposed to my girlfrend Melissa, she said yes. It was the perfect private atmosphere I was looking for.

"We had a wonderful stay at the Cozy Cabin. Everything was perfect. All the creature comforts of home.

"All I can say is WOW! We had SUCH a relaxing time this Christmas. The moment we walked in my fiance said we should have booked this place for a week, instead of 4 days. It was VERY clean and neat (I was afraid to see spiders or bugs but it was spotless) and the water in the hottub was crystal clear. Karin had thought of everything when she set this cabin up for rental, there is every convenience imaginable. There are board games to play, DVDs, VHS tapes, all the cooking utensils you need, extra blankets, fire wood, even a washer and dryer right in the (very clean) basement! We will definitely return to Cozy Cabin, next time with friends!!" - Claire & Scott, 12/26/08( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
""A cozy slice of heaven" My husband and I have now stayed at the Cozy Cabin 3 times in the past year, winter, spring and fall - all the seasons are beautiful and different. The cabin is exactly as described and pictured, in fact it's even better. Karin, the owner is very attentive and organized and, Deb, the caretaker in NH keeps the cabin extremely clean. The cabin is well equipped and situated in a completely private yard. The hot tub under the stars is sparkling clean and wonderful in all seasons! There's lots to do in the area, with all White Mountain attractions (and Vermont) being within driving distance. Sugar Hill/Franconia and Littleton are close with many restaurant and shopping options. The Cozy Cabin is highly recommended! " - Christine, Westford, MA, 10/21/08( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Hi Karin, Finally getting to all my emails since returning from vacation. I so meant to write something in the guest log book before leaving (I enjoyed reading others comments), but time got away from me and before I new it we were packing up on Thursday morning. WOW is all we can say!!! As soon as we opened the door my husband said, “they are as neat and clean as you”, many things reminded us of home. It was much more than we expected. It was soooo very clean, orderly, cozy, well equipped, and all that we could have asked for. You would never know that you allow pets (which we do not have), not a smell or trace at all. You always wonder when you rent a place what you might walk in to and that was not an issue. My husband still is talking about the hot tub (which we all enjoyed thoroughly) and how unbelievably clean and refreshing it was. I don’t think we have ever seen one look that clear – honestly. When our boys settled down is when we enjoyed the hot tub the most. It was our pleasure to keep everything tidy and really I would not have had it any other way. How would we go about reserving space for next year? I just looked at your Vermont resort – incredible! I need to show my husband that rental. I’m sure it is not easy opening one of your homes up to others and not always knowing what condition they may leave it in or how they might treat it while they are there, so we are so grateful for having the opportunity to rent it. Thank you very, very much! Best - Tracy, Tim, Travis and Tristan" - , Maine, 07/08/08( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"The cabin is absolutely wonderful. I plan to visit again and again!!! Karin is attentive and responsive. It was the most relaxed wonderful week I have had in years and years! We had a buddy - a barred owl, spectacular!" - Cathy, West Haven, CT, 04/29/08( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Hi Karin – Just a quick note – I had to write – because we have been mentioning your name and your cabin in conversation the past two days and I wanted to share that with you. We just got back from renting a cabin on Stinson Lake in Rumney, NH – owned by the family of a friend of a friend – they had a cancellation – we took it sight unseen, etc. What a disappointment. The “private” cabin was private – within the family compound of 4 other cabins! The “private beach” was no such thing. Our “private deck” overlooked the walkway to the beach, so that everyone passed by as they headed to and from the lake. (The lake was lovely and the cabin was close to hiking – but that was the only good feature.) The kitchen was tiny, the bedrooms had twin beds, it was dark and dreary, and as Cliff said – “there wasn’t a comfortable spot to sit in the whole place!” Anyway, all this to say that you have such a wonderful cabin and we so enjoyed (and very much appreciate) the experience we had staying there this past March. You have attended to every detail and comfort - and offer a CLEAN, aesthetically pleasing, private getaway that truly delivers what it promises. We are looking forward to our next visit to your wonderful place. As I said, it’s a real gem! Best regards, Catherine " - Catherine, Massachusetts, 08/26/07( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Karin, The cabin was wonderful. Everything was fine and exactly as you said. Its location is excellent and all of the amenities in the cabin were great and appreciated from the Hot Tub, to the Washer and Dryer, to the little surprises like the telescope and games and videos. The rooms were comfortable and very nice. The kids (and even the dogs) had a wonderful time. We were able to visit Storyland, Santa's Village, Clarks Trading Post, Six Gun City, Lost River, Cannon Mt., and St Johnsbury VT and all were reasonably close to the cabin. If you know any coin collectors Littleton has one of the largest coin dealers in the U.S. (Littleton Coin). They offer tours of their facility on Wednesdays and Fridays at 2pm and have a nice gift shop. They are only 15 minutes from the cabin. We will definitely consider re-visiting and perhaps even checking out your place in Vermont. If you have a mailing list, please add us to it.

"Dear Karin, Our family had a wonderful vacation at your cabin, thank you for allowing us to use it! Occasionally when "buying online" one could be very leary but you have made this a pleasant and secure experience from start to finish. Thank you for the refunding the sec dep. so promptly Oh, we loved the journal that is kept by the phone, there was great insight into things to do in the area. We particularly loved the swim hole on Loop Rd in Easton- we spent several hrs there swimming, sunning and eating. Have a wonderful summer to you and your family!

"Hi Karin, My wife and I had a wonderful time at the cabin. Annie and I were able to get to see some of the things we missed out on during our last trip to the cabin. We hiked Franconia Notch Park, The Flume, The Basin, Lafeyette, Mt. Washington, visited the nearby lakes, barbecued, and relaxed in the hot tub and on the deck. Love the chairs. We had wonderful meals at Polly's Pancake Parlor, 99, and The Ammonusic Inn. All in all it was a great trip. We got to see some amazing sites.Thanks again and we look forward to our next stay at the White Mountains with you. It is an amazing place! Travis, Annie and Ripley" - Travis, PA, 06/07/07( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Well the cabin definately lives up to its name. You have a wonderful place here and we immediately felt at peace as soon as we came in. We loved the walks through the snow and seeing all the deer tracks. Thanks for having us up we really enjoyed our stay and we hope to revisit sometime this summer. P.S. We found a saucer in the garage and used the hill behind it to sled down. It was great fun!" - Kristen, Concord, NH, 03/16/07( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"As soon as my boyfriend and I arrived we were immediately welcomed by the warmth and charm of this cabin. It felt like a home away from home. I will remember always the snowy hot tub adventure, the moon lighting the sky so bright andof course the late nights by the fireside. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and relaxing haven. We look forward to coming back in another season." - Aprille & Tim, Chicopee, MA, 02/04/07( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"The 3 of us had a nice time. Walt & I loved those deck rockers and sat out most evenings after grilling supper while Brad toasted marshmallows (can't do that in a hotel!). The cabin was very private & we enjoyed having our dog, Raven, with us. We didn't have to worry if she barked at a chipmunk or two. (She's a black lab mix with a loud bark.) About mid-week, we met Deb, who is a nice lady. You are lucky to have such a nice person taking care of your property. She had that cabin pretty darn clean when we got there." - Cathy, Orchard Beach, Maine, 08/18/06( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Karin, We had a great time! Your cabin is wonderful! It only snowed lightly our last day, but there was enough snow on the ground for us to get a few days of cross country skiing at Jackson. We really enjoyed Littleton, especially that it wasn't as touristy as other towns in the White Mountains. The waterfall near the school was beautiful. The whole area is beautiful - we spent a lot of time driving around looking at scenery. The cabin was perfect as well. You're very lucky to have such a charming get away. And yes, we did enjoy the hot tub, though it was awfully cold getting in and out! Take care, Mindy and Bob San Francisco, CA " - , 03/10/06( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Karin, We had a wonderful time! The cabin was more than what we expected, you have a jewel. Great location and views. Private and secluded, but not to far from civilization. The caretaker called shortly after we arrived to check on us and to offer her help if needed. The cabin was very clean. We snowboarded at Loon and Cannon, visited Franconia, hiked on the trails near Perch Pond, ate in Littleton, and watched our Pittsburgh Steelers win at the pub "99" . We spent our evenings in the hot tub and by the fire. Neighbors dogs were very cool. We do a lot of traveling and this trip ranks with the best. It was our first time to the White Mountains and they were amazing. Thanks again" - Travis, Downington, PA, 02/10/06( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Karin, I would like to thank you for such a pleasent stay at the cozy cabin. It was a great experience, just what i was looking for, remote, romantic and of course cozy. We had a great time there and I will def. keep your info so i can visit again sometime when I get back out east. Thanks again " - Shane, Prospect, PA, 01/08/06( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Thank you so much for the relaxing week. This was the perfect place to spend our honeymoon. Soaking in the hot tub is as much fun under a starlit sky as it is in a dusk snowstorm. Toasting marshmallows in the fireplace was also a highlight of the week. Thank you again." - Randy, Boston, MA, 11/27/05( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"We had a wonderfully relaxing time at the cabin. I was really impressed with how meticulously clean the cabin was, and I can’t really think of anything that would have made it more comfortable." - Chris, Dartmouth, MA, 11/08/05( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Thanks Karin, Everything we could possibly need or think of was available to us. The information box and the atlas of the New Hampshire area were extremely useful. The hot tub was great and very well maintained. The bed was perfect, very comfortable with the pillow top. It was a nice surprise. I was expecting a hard, old, uncomfortable bed. The movie selection was good and we watched one almost every night. I would never have been able to tell that you were new at the vacation rental business. It appeared that you had years of experience, as you addressed every need that someone could have. I was very happy to see a guest book. It was fun reading what the first guests wrote and we shared our experience there as well. Thanks for everything! " - Dennis, Jacksonville, FL, 08/12/05( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Hi Karin, I just wanted to tell you that we had a fabulous time at your cabin his past weekend. I know you mentioned tjat this was the first year doing this and wanted feedback so here goes. Highlights: The deck and chairs are soo comfy - we spent hours out there just reading and relaxing The cabin is adorable - great job decorating, it's very cute the hot tub the old school movies It was fabulous and we'd be interested in renting it in the winter. Thanks so much, " - Suzanne, Boston, MA, 08/08/05( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
