Just steps away from Rainbow Lake in this Dog Friendly Cabin

Get away to our comfortable 2BD/1BA mountain cabin just steps away to Rainbow Lake. Golden Retreat provides the perfect mix of a mountain retreat, while still close enough to all that the White Mountains have to offer.

The cabin sleeps 6 guests for that perfect family get away or romantic retreat. The master BR has a full queen, TV , while the guest room has a queen and bunk beds ( FULL ). All beds are high quality for a comfortable nights rest.

In-floor heating keeps this cozy cabin very comfortable, along with an electric fireplace for heat and ambience. Portable electric heaters are in each room for added comfort if needed. Being at 6800ft elevation, the average summer temperature is in the mid 80's. Open the windows to provide fresh and cool mountain air. On rare occasion it can get in the 90's, so a portable AC is provided for your comfort ( 1 in Main Living/Dining, and 1 in each bedroom ).

In the main room is a 65" flat screen TV, DVD player with Netflix access, high speed internet service, bar, electric heating fireplace and a dining table that seats 7 comfortably. CableTV is provided on all TV's.

Though the kitchen area is small and lacks a full size oven, it does have everything else needed to prepare and serve meals for the whole family.

Outside you will find a wrap around deck with propane BBQ, picnic table and outdoor seating. There is plenty of parking in front m( Gravel Drive ) and room for your boat. The launch ramp and fishing dock is right around the corner!

***We just added a fence around the property for your children & pets to play with no worries of running off.

We are huge animal lover and believe everyone should be allowed to bring their furry kids ( Dog's Only Max 2 ) with them on vacation, however due to prior inconsiderate guests with pets who have damaged the property and unable to pick up after their animals, I am now forced to charge a pet fee of $30 ( Per Pet )(no cats allowed). This property is fenced in so you're doggies can run free. Also being in the Mountains, there are natures insects and animals in the area so stay alert. At busy times the traffic in the vicinity can get pretty hectic.

I have the cabin next door (listing # 2432133) which you can check out the reviews, and then rent both for a great Family event. Plenty of parking so bring your fishing poles and boat up to have some fun in the beautiful White Mountains!!

IMPORTANT INFO: Should you elect to use the INSTANT BOOKING option, no contract to rent is entered into unless the owner and traveler have both signed the owner's written rental agreement and the traveler has paid the deposit. Please note that we DO NOT accept payments from American Express.

Second time staying here. It’s a great place to get out of the heat and the dogs absolutely love playing in the yard. I stayed four nights and never had to leave the property once it has everything I needed on site. Definitely will be back again.

Wonderful little cabin

Me and and my teenage kids stayed here and fished almost everyday. The lake is so close the kids could walk by themselves. We caught a total of 25 fish between all of us. Very comfortable and located in the perfect place. Ryan

Perfect location and home for family time. Brother and kids enjoyed the space, and it was a comfortable place for Aunts and Uncle to join for bugers and dogs on the new grill. Steps to Rainbow Lake and a great forest walk across the dam.
