Wildwood Cottage is part of the small 1950s Forest Acres vacation community tucked away on a wooded hillside in Bristol, New Hampshire.

The cottage sleeps 6 comfortably. There is private bedroom with a queen bed, a loft bedroom with 2 twin beds, and a double futon on the sun room. As an old fashioned houskeeping cottage ask you to supply your own sheets & towels. Blankets and pillows are provided. However, if you would like the convenience of linen service we can provide it for a$50,00 service fee

It has been our family’s vacation home for more than 29 years. The crystal clear water of Newfound Lake is just a short, if steep!) walk to the bottom of the hill, and the wondrously tall conifer trees are all around.

Though the outside of the cottage is deceptively small, the inside is quite spacious, with plenty of light, natural pine woodwork, an open cathedral ceiling and loft area, a fireplace, screened sun room, and the obligatory deer head. If you're looking for an old-timey camp, you've found the right place!

The kitchen is equipped with a a small gas stove, refrigerator, coffee maker, microwave, toaster oven and the usual cooking utensils. Being small and low tech there is no dishwasher. There is a flat screen TV with DVD player, a stereo, iPod/phone charging station. Wifi is available for subscription TV services. Cell phone service seems to be good in our location.

Outside there is a front deck with gas grill, outside tables & chairs and umbrellas to keep off the afternoon sun. There is a sand box in the yard if you have little tykes with you. We have a fire ring in the backyard and wood is provided. There is an enclosed rustic outdoor shower for rinsing after the beach if you like the back to nature feeling.

The cottage is not on the beach, but it is right between the two Bristol Town beach areas, and about 7 minutes from Wellington State park - we'll provide the beach chairs and floaty noodles! We have found being off the main road and the busy lake front has means more peace and quiet, and a safer place for kids.

Please note the road is very steep and turns to dirt half way up. It is not suited for motorcycles. Due to the curve in the road and the short lengths of the driveway, there is no room for fishing or bike trailers.

    The property was just as described with plenty of room. The only downside was that we couldn't stay longer.

    I chose this cabin because we could come here after our daily FALL adventures to absorb the beauty we had experienced during the day and enjoy each other's company. Also because the location was within 2 hours of so very many fall beautiful sights. We enjoyed several fires in the welcoming fireplace, and the firewood was provided. That was magnificent! The kitchen was small, but plenty big enough for us to cook breakfast and make coffee. Pots and pans were there to make more elaborate meals. The washer and dryer were a huge plus. Thank you for providing them. We didn't really spend much time on the deck, but it was an inviting and useable space, with 2 tables, chairs, and umbrellas. Our #1 adventure in this area was on Cardigan Mountain. There is a little apple orchard that was the BEST and most lovely experience ever. If you are here in apple picking season, check them out. A lovely 15 minute drive from Wildwood Cabin.
