Mountains, Beach, or Boston Day Trips! Swimming, Foliage, Winter Sports Nearby Get away from the hustle and bustle at our little cabin in the woods! Our home is cozy but not claustrophobic with a cathedral ceiling in the main living space and a catwalk between the two upstairs bedrooms. The master bedroom (double bed) is on the first floor directly across from the main bathroom which offers support rails by the toilet and in the shower (no tub, though.) Linens and towels are provided. One upstairs bedroom has a half bath adjoining it and a twin size bed with pull-out trundle and a bookshelf full of children's books. The other bedroom has two twin beds, swinging saloon style doors, and a 3/4 wall separating it from the hubbub below. The basement is painted and stocked with toys and games as well as a washer and dryer. The cabin has wi-fi, but why not unplug and enjoy some of the many books from our collection found on bookshelves throughout the house? We do not have a TV, but shows can be streamed through your device or you may use our portable DVD player and DVD collection. The three season porch is all windows, surrounded by green with a glimpse of water at the bottom of the hill. Although our cabin is not on the water, the condo association has a dock about a 5-10 minute walk from the cabin which you are free to use for swimming or fishing. Nearly all of the rooms have ceiling fans, so throw open the windows and let the breeze flow through! We have a small air conditioner unit in the living room, but the cabin temp is usually comfortable with the fans. Parking available for two cars at the cabin (three if small); additional parking is a short walk away at the entrance to the condo property. The cabin is about two hours from Boston, slightly over an hour from the White Mountains (North Conway), and 45 minutes from the beach in Wells--you can enjoy everything from here! Please message me with any questions and note that the decor is a bit of a work in progress but I will try to keep pictures updated! Please note that this is a NON-SMOKING property. Smoking is not allowed anywhere on the Kettle Pond property, including outside, down at the docks, etc., as per the condo association rules. PLEASE NOTE: I do NOT have a security deposit on this property! In an effort to keep the out of pocket cost down for you, I instead have a damage protection policy which is a $99 fee (paid to VRBO, not me) for $5000 of protection. It is a purchase of an insurance policy, NOT a deposit that you will get back. There has been some confusion on this lately and I don't know if VRBO has changed their wording on the guest end or not, so I am just hoping to clarify! Thank you!
