Set in a quiet cove on Balch Lake, the home is fully winter-ready and intentionally designed for families who want space to spread out, unwind, and enjoy time together — without feeling stuck indoors. Between the private hot tub, fireplace, heated game room, and wide-open living areas, many winter and spring guests choose to stay in and make the cabin the destination. 🌲 What Makes This Cabin Different This isn’t a standard lake house. It’s a true log cabin, handcrafted with natural wood beams, custom carvings made from trees on the property, and a warm, open layout that feels both cozy and spacious — even with a full group. Perfect for: ✔️ Multi-generational families ✔️ Kids to play without being on top of each other ✔️ Adults to relax while still feeling connected 🌊 Lakefront Living (Perfect for Families) Private sandy beach with gradual, shallow entry — ideal for kids to wade and play Secluded cove keeps things calmer than open water areas 3 paddleboards, 5 kayaks + a large picnic-table boat included 💡 Swimming tip: Our cove is shallow and natural, with vegetation typical of New England lakes. Many guests paddle just outside the cove, anchor, and enjoy clearer water for floating and swimming — an easy, fun setup that families love once they know it. 🔥 Outdoor Space You’ll Actually Use Private hot tub on the back deck (year-round, visually private) Lakeside fire pit for s’mores, stories, and quiet evenings Large back deck with plenty of seating and lake views Screened-in porch for morning coffee or relaxed family meals 🎮 Indoor Fun for Rainy Days & Cozy Nights The heated basement game room is a guest favorite — especially in winter and shoulder seasons: Arcade machines (NBA Jamz + pinball) Ping pong & foosball TV and bar-style counter Comfortable for kids, teens, and adults Perfect for evenings when the lake quiets down and everyone wants to stay in. 🛏️ Sleeping & Layout (Comfortably Sleeps 10) Primary suite: King bed + private balcony + ensuite bath Bedroom 2: Queen bed (main level, quiet retreat) Bedroom 3: 4 twin bunks — ideal for kids Bedroom 4: Queen bed All bedrooms are generously sized — no tight or awkward spaces. 🍽️ Kitchen & Essentials Fully equipped kitchen with stainless appliances & gas stove Large breakfast bar and open layout for family meals Fast Wi-Fi (cell service is limited — this is a feature, not a bug 😉) Linens, towels, toiletries, washer/dryer included ❄️ Year-Round Comfort Winter-ready with plowed access Fireplace, hot tub, and game room make cold months cozy Most winter guests happily stay in and enjoy the cabin Popular nearby outings include tubing, skiing, and North Conway shopping 🐾 Family-Friendly & Pet-Friendly Pets welcome (fee applies) Pack ’n Play + high chair provided Quiet setting best suited for respectful families 🌙 A Note on Peace & Quiet This home is best suited for families who appreciate peaceful evenings and quiet mornings. Sound carries across the lake, and the setting is intentionally calm — perfect for reconnecting, not partying. 🍁 Final Thoughts If you’re looking for a warm, spacious, authentic lakefront retreat where kids can play freely, adults can truly relax, and everyone has room to breathe — this cabin delivers. Availability is limited, especially during summer and peak foliage season. Book early to secure your dates. 🏡 House Rules & Important Details ✔️ Check-in: 4 PM ✔️ Check-out: 10 AM 🙊 Quiet Hours 10pm-8am: This is a peaceful retreat meant for those who appreciate nature and quiet relaxation—please respect our quiet hours and our neighbors. 🚫 No smoking 🐶 Pet friendly with a $75 per pet fee (2 max) ❌ No events, parties, or large gatherings 📌 Must be at least 25 years old to book 💲 Additional fees and taxes may apply 📸 Photo ID may be required upon check-in 📋 Rental Agreement must be signed by all guests before arrival 🔇 Minut Noise detectors are installed inside and the outside the property due to this being a residential neighborhood.

The atmosphere was relaxing throughout our vacation, and the host, Chris, was always quick to respond to our questions.

We had everything we needed and actually only left once just to check out other views of the lake. I would definitely recommend this property if you're looking for a great spot in nature with easy lake access. I hope to visit again! ##### Jeff W.

Chris had excellent communication throughout our stay and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. We were also pleasantly surprised that the primary bedroom has a mini split AC unit and the bunk room has a window AC unit so there was AC throughout the home which was an update to the listing! We also used the pack and play and baby gates for our toddler and were impressed with all of the labels throughout the home letting us know where things were. The sandy beach was easy with our small children and they loved playing on the shore and being able to easily walk in the water. We also enjoyed the kayaks and floats. An overall wonderful stay! ##### Mattie W. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jamie K. Nov 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We booked this house for some much needed family respite. To start, the listing drew us in with the uniqueness of the property and all of the amenities provided. We were looking for a place we didn't have to leave, but rather just hang out and enjoy. This was it! The hosts provide all a guest needs and MORE! You can tell they really put thought into what people will require while away from home and strive to give you as much as they can to serve their guests. It is obvious that they desire for folks to feel at home and on vacation while staying in their space. The game room was a huge hit with our children and even the adults. The kayaks and paddleboards were awesome, and their location on the water is prime for parents. The beach is set up in such a way that the kids can be playing in the cove with the boats and boards and the adults can relax and supervise. We appreciated the QR codes around the house as well. The owners are super communicative and the most timely hosts we have ever interacted with. Our entire family enjoyed the stay and plan to go back! ##### Jamie K.
