Cozy A-frame Cabin- Walk to Hills pond/Sunset lake- 20 mins to gunstock

Welcome to Alton Shores! This A-frame style cabin offers all the vacation feels with proximity to everything. Minutes walk to one of 5 private association beaches on Hills Pond and Sunset Lake. Drive 10 minutes to Alton Bay and Lake Winnepesaukee where you can enjoy a meal on the water, a game of mini golf, or get out on the water. Coming in the winter? Gunstock is about 20 minutes away.

The knotty pine walls and working stone fireplace make this house the perfect place to gather and relax in summer or winter. The house offers an open floor-plan, a main floor bedroom, and a loft space that is effectively two separate bedrooms. Please note that there is no door to the loft space, and the second bedroom offers a curtain for privacy.

Enjoy the garage full of lake toys, or sit and relax around the outdoor fire-pit or cozy fireplace. The house comes complete with linens, a fully stocked kitchen, wifi, pack n play, highchair, and many additional amenities to make your stay more comfortable.

Please note: Guests are required to follow all association beach rules. These rules are in affect from Memorial Day to Columbus and prohibit dogs, fishing, fires, and grilling on the beaches.

Hanna was a wonderful host! When we had an issue with water pressure in the shower, she responded within minutes and had someone out to fix it within about an hour. The place is rustic but charming with a great fireplace!

Clean, Cozy & Equipped
My husband, son and I all enjoyed our stay at the very clean and cozy cabin. The pond is only a 2 minute walk and everything you need to enjoy it was provided. We enjoyed having breakfast on the back deck in the morning and fires in the firepit at night.

Hiking & Nascar
The cabin was cozy & comfortable, grill was awesome for the two of us and plenty of utensils & cookware. Location was convienent to Loudon to catch some car racing. We traveled with our two pups and there was plenty of hiking in the area which we utilized just about everyday. The neighborhood of the rental was quiet and very nice. We did not take advantage of any lakes or lake activities which we regret but the opportunity is there for all who want it. The owner Hanna is wonderful and such great communication. We definitely would stay there again! THANK YOU so much for letting us be your guests.

We had so much fun at this cabin! We felt instantly at home as soon as we walked in. The kids loved their rooms upstairs, all the beds and linens we comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. I would rent this home anytime of year and know we would have a great home base for our family. Can’t wait for our next weekend escape at the cabin!

“Fabulous weekend “
We stayed for the weekend, and we most definitely recommend it! Hanna was more than accommodating, professional and helpful. The house is beautiful, well decorated and well maintained. It snowed about a foot over night and the house was cleaned before we woke up in the morning!!! If you are seeking a peaceful, and safe please consider her place. We are thankful for Hanna!

Stay in Alton Bay
We had a lovely stay in Alton Bay. The A Frame cottage was just as pictured. Perfect for cozy nights in playing board games by the fire. Lots of amenities nearby and we enjoyed visiting some of the towns. The host was responsive and very easy to work with. We’d definitely stay here again.

Wonderful little nook!
Great little place tucked away in Alton. The accommodations were as described, and as pictured. This little cabin is a very special place. Comfy, and cozy, even our teens came out of their spaces (beds) to come hang out at the table with us! Wi-Fi worked well, we didn’t get a chance to use the fireplace or the fire pit, or utilize the fun things in the garage. Host communication was excellent.
