About this property
Family-Friendly 3Bd+Loft w/Mtn Views + Fireplace
Unwind at our cozy 3-bed + loft retreat just 10 mins off I-93 in the western White Mountains. Soak in sweeping views, hike scenic trails, or relax on the deck with your morning coffee. After a day of adventure, kick back in two spacious living rooms or cook up a feast in the fully equipped kitchen. Perfect for an escape during any season - peace, comfort, and fresh mountain air await.
Looking for a reset? Fresh mountain air, starry skies, and time with the people who matter most are waiting here in the White Mountains. Just 2 hours from Boston, Northpointe Lodge is your cozy, rustic retreat and the perfect base for family adventures - or simply slowing down together.
Why Families Love It Here
- Room for Everyone: Best suited for 6–7 adults (plus kids), the lodge has 3 main bedrooms and a fun enclosed loft. The loft is reached by a narrow staircase and has a slanted ceiling - perfect as a hideaway for two kids or an adventurous adult (but a bit snug for two adults).
- Two Living Rooms: Spread out for game nights, movie time, or a little quiet space.
- Kid-Friendly Touches: A play loft with toys, junior dining chairs, step stools, and even a travel crib make things easy for parents.
Cozy Comforts Inside
- Indoor wood-burning fireplace for chilly nights
- Equipped kitchen with spices, bakeware, French press & tea essentials
- Cards, board games, free exchange library & Wi-Fi (when you want it)
- Snowshoes, ski/snowboard gear storage, and a boot/glove dryer for winter adventures
Outdoor Bliss
- Outdoor grill & dining table - perfect for family BBQs
- Fire pit for roasting marshmallows and sharing stories under the stars
- Spacious deck with mountain views and a front-row seat to wildlife & stargazing
Adventure at Your Doorstep
Explore the Western White Mountains year-round! In the warmer months, hike the countless scenic trails in the area, take a refreshing float down the river, or begin a breathtaking drive along the famous Kancamagus Highway (just 20 minutes to the start). Come fall, enjoy brilliant foliage hikes, pumpkin patches, and local harvest festivals. In winter, hit the slopes at nearby Loon, Cannon, or Waterville Valley (all just 20–25 minutes away), or try snowshoeing, ice skating, or a cozy horse-drawn sleigh ride through the snow. For a more laid-back adventure, hop aboard the Hobo Railroad for a scenic train ride, explore charming covered bridges, or warm up with hot cider and local eats at nearby restaurants and cafés.

About the host
Hosted by Jeanne Donahue
Hi there! We’re a husband & wife duo who’ve spent over 20 years in the service industry, creating unforgettable experiences for others—it’s a passion we share. Hosting gives us the chance to welcome guests into a space where they can relax, connect, and make lifelong memories. With two young kids, we know how important it is to have a home away from home that feels special. We love traveling, exploring new places, and spending time together, and we’re thrilled to share a little of that joy with you. Welcome—we're so glad you’re here!
Why they chose this property
We chose this area because it’s truly a place that inspires us. No matter the season, the White Mountains offer something magical—breathtaking views, endless trails, and the kind of fresh air that makes you feel alive. We love being outdoors, whether it’s hiking in the summer, snowshoeing in the winter (we've yet to attempt the ski trails!), or just soaking in the scenery. What makes this area so special is the abundance of exploration—it feels like there’s always something new to discover, and it’s all within a short drive. It’s a place where adventure and serenity meet, and we’re so happy to share it with our guests!
What makes this property unique
Our property is a cozy retreat designed to help you feel at home while surrounded by the beauty of the White Mountains. In winter, the indoor fireplace creates the perfect spot to unwind after a day of adventures. With breathtaking views from the large windows or deck, you’re always connected to nature. Centrally located near so many attractions, it serves as an ideal home base. Plus, with four bedrooms, two living rooms, and two bathrooms, there’s plenty of space for everyone to relax and recharge.
