Most Beautiful Cabin!
My husband and I arrived with our frenchie Cookie and were immediately delighted! A beautiful cottage right on the lake! We slept so comfortably and relaxed all day while fishing and sitting next to a fire. We met both John and his lovely Mom and their pups! We can’t wait to go back! Thank you for our wonderful stay!

Pemi River Cabin
Spent two nights at Cabin #2 on the river. Cabin was clean and comfortable. Inside and out as advertised. Loved having our own dock. Our dog had the best time swimming and hanging out on the dock. A great get-a-way location!

A very peaceful get away from our very busy lives. We spent a great deal of time kayaking and paddle boarding, with evenings by the fire. This is one of the most peaceful places I’ve been. A great getaway.

Remote Working Getaway
My husband and I enjoyed a few days working remotely here with our two pups. The cottage was cozy and the views were awesome. We were able to get out on our paddle boards during the day and enjoyed sitting by the fire in the evenings. Hosts were quick to communicate and help us out when a small issue came up. Close to some great breweries and hiking/walking spots. Overall Great stay :)

Short but wonderful little getaway
Unfortunately, we didn't have too much time to enjoy the quaint little cabin on the river. It was however adorable and super picturesque. We hope to visit again before too long.

Peaceful and relaxing fall weekend
Everything from beginning to the end was great! The cottage had everything we needed. Jane and her son John were helpful if we needed anything. John took us out on the boat on the river. It was so nice! The leaves were starting to change. It was a perfect fall weekend!

Extremely relaxing!! Even the dogs approved!!
This was by far the most relaxing vacation we have ever taken! The property is absolutely beautiful, the river is clean, the cabin is comfortable, and the owners are extremely hospitable and helpful while also respecting our privacy. We took our 2 large Dutch Shepherd dogs and I am pretty sure they would have happily stayed there forever! We spent most days fishing, kayaking, hiking (White Mountains and Lake Winnipesaukee are only about a 45 min drive), taking naps in the hammock, exploring town and the Franklin Falls Dam, or swimming with the dogs. We spent most nights grilling dinner and having campfire s'mores. Very quiet area, solitude bliss. Thank you for everything Jane & John!! We will be back! We stayed 7 nights & I could have easily stayed another 7 :)

Beautiful View
Love love love our stay. Waking up to a beautiful view! And it was so peaceful and quiet. We lucked out with the warmer than usual weather for September in NH. The house was as described and pictured and was perfect for the two of us and our dog. The hosts greeted us and made themselves available if we had had any questions/concerns but otherwise left us alone. We were invited to a boat ride/tour and I say it’s a must!! If you get invited- don’t hesitate- go for it! The river is calm and was perfect for paddling and fishing. I recommend, it’s the first place I’ve stayed where I can’t wait to come back again next year!

This place is a postcard and you're in it....
Listing and photos are spot-on. John was great on the communication prior and during my 3 day visit. The cabin just as described and photographed. Very much enjoyed the evening pontoon boat ride with the other guests. Watching the bald eagle fish for dinner was amazing to see. This place is off the beaten path and is very peaceful. Bella the rescue lab was an extra bonus.

A great, peaceful stay!
The Pemi Shore cottage was a quiet, peaceful stay on the river for a short stay with my pup. The cabin is small and rustic (perfect for two people), warm in cooler fall weather and has great outdoor amenities including a big fire pit and patio to watch the sunsets. The owners were kind and even dropped off a bone for the dog!
