Cozy, inviting, and perfectly atmospheric, this A-frame chalet sits just a few minutes' walk from Thusis Beach on the south shore of Pea Porridge Pond. You'll be amid hiking and snowmobile trails, ski slopes, fall foliage drives, boating, and swimming - with beautiful pine walls, a gas-log stove, and a quiet, comfortable living space to come home to each day. Use the provided kayaks and life jackets to get out on the water each morning, returning home for a coffee or cocoa outside on the deck and breakfast prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. Spend your evenings gathering around the seasonal firepit to roast marshmallows with your loved ones or snuggling up inside for a game of cards and a movie by the fire in the living room.

simple cozy retreat

We were in the area for the total eclipse and glad we stayed here! Perfect space for our two families (including dog). Close to the Kancamagus, Whites, etc but also a sweet place to just relax. Furnishings were basic but mostly everything we needed.

Overall good

We stayed in excellent VRBO rentals before. Only problem was garbage from previous rentals had never been removed from property. As snow melted we found an old cigar but on deck as well as dog poop. Which we picked up ourselves. The were many different conflicting instructions on what not to do and what to do in regards to heat, water, dishwasher (there is no dishwasher), but there were pods for one? Otherwise, we had fun. Would recommend streamlining instructions, and removing trash as we had to take ours home.

Great find for a long weekend getaway

Always wanted to stay in an A frame! Check in was easy and directions were clear. Home was clean and heat was easy to use. Kitchen had everything needed for cooking meals. Stayed here with my husband and dog.

Weekend getaway

2nd time staying. Cute area and in a great location to a lot of hiking trails. Google maps for some reason did not bring us right to the house this time.. but we were able to find our way looking at house numbers. We arrived at night so the house being lit up for us also was very helpful.

Peaceful mountain stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was as shown. It was a great location to nearby attractions but felt private enough in a good neighborhood. Definitely bring blankets/comforters. When showering space out showers for hot water purposes
