Welcome to NH’s natural playground where the Pemi River meanders through the White Mountains. There’s an amazing array of fun things to do nearby.

Within 20 minutes, find 55 hiking trails, climbing areas, equestrian centers, and riverside fun. Bike along peaceful roads, crisscross rivers, & traverse covered bridges. Stop to fish & swim.

Enjoy local restaurants: craft brews, pubs, family fare, & fine dining - there's something for every palate! Or just relax; enjoy your cozy accommodations.

Hound's Nest is the perfect place for you, your family, and your friends to get away. Hound’s Nest welcomes guests into its warm woodsy décor and soaring post & beam construction. Upon arrival, guests are greeted by a peaceful paradise. Enter the spacious screened-in porch; rest on a rocking chair; sit at the dining table – please enjoy the birdsong.

Now, enter through the main door, one can’t help but look up and marvel at the gorgeous post-and-beam construction – it takes you back to a by-gone era of quality craftsmanship. Guests are wrapped in the warm wood finishes. Plenty of space for family and friends to gather and spread out at Hound’s Nest. Two living rooms book-end the eat-in kitchen. Tucked away behind the stairway is the main floor bedroom. Climb the stairs to the second bedroom and sleeping loft that overlooks the kitchen and living room.

Hound’s Nest wraps you in the peaceful blanket of the New Hampshire woodlands, and yet nearby fun abounds!

Come to Hound’s Nest and enjoy all the fun Stinson Lake & Stinson Mountain offer. Stinson Lake, a deep-water, glacier lake, is one of the few NH lakes without parasitic plants; its waters boast 25-foot visibility. Perfect for water play – fish, boat, paddle, and swim in Stinson Lake’s refreshing, clear water. Good news! Guests of Hound’s Nest enjoy access to Stinson Lake via the community’s docks & deck.

Hound’s Nest is close to Stinson Mountain, a lesser-known peak of New Hampshire’s White Mountains. As with all White Mountain National Forest venues, guests can enjoy hiking, climbing, & mountaineering. With an elevation of 2,890 feet, Stinson Mountain has some family-friendly walks that lead to great views! Prefer to ride? Hound’s Nest is surrounded by peaceful winding country roads – take a ride and enjoy! Prefer spelunking? Hound’s Nest is less than 15 minutes to Polar Caves Park. Prefer Rock Climbing? Rattlesnake Mountain is just 15 minutes from Hound's Nest.

After a day of adventure, return to Hound’s Nest to relax and enjoy family and friends. Hang out on the screened-in porch – gather around the large dining table: enjoy dinner, play board games, or make a puzzle. Prefer comfy conversation: the front living room provides cozy seating for conversation over cocktails. Prefer to watch a show? The back living room provides a big screen, smart TV. Watch your favorite streaming services!

As your evening winds down, Hound’s Nest comfortably sleeps 7 guests in 2 bedrooms and a sleeping loft. Each bedroom has a Queen bed; the sleeping loft has 3 Twin beds. With a blend of queen and twin beds, Hound’s Nest easily accommodates couples, singles, and kids. 1 full bath with a walk-in shower rounds out the accommodations.

Cozy house neat the lake
5/5 stars
We enjoyed staying at this cozy house near Stinson Lake. The wood joinery and construction is amazing. The house had everything we needed which was helpful when there is not a supermarket near by. We appreciated seeing bottle waters, wine and coffee in the frig upon arrival. We did not bring our dog but like that we could.
- Grace
Very relaxing and quiet getaway!
5/5 stars
My husband and our hound dog, Molly, went to Hounds Nest for 5 days and had the best time! The post and beam house is beautiful!! Just the right size house! Very nicely stocked!! It was after Labor day so it wasn't as busy as it gets in the summer, which made it even better to sit down on the lake and have our cocktails. We will definitely recommend this property, and hope to go back!
- Jean
Cozy, clean and comfortable.
5/5 stars
This is a wonderful space to rest and recharge with family. I am impressed with the cleanliness and all of the little touches that we discovered during the stay. There were flashlights, a small bottle of wine in the fridge, ice cubes were made and ready as well as dish liquid, a brand new sponge in package and toiletries in the bathroom. Extra blankets and towels were available as well as a heating pad. There were board games and a fire pit as well. There is no seating by the fire pit so you may wish to bring some folding chairs to sit by the fire while you roast marshmallows. From the moment we got to Hounds Nest we felt comfortable. It is a lovely home away from home. We will definitely come again. I am almost afraid to give an honest review for fear that it will be booked the next time we want to visit and get away form the city.
