Sorry no more weeks available - please check back in January for Summer 2026

With a little more waterfront this would be an island - unmatched privacy. (2026 Summer availability will be listed in January 2026)

Welcome to the Loon Lodge, available for Summer time rentals - end of June through August. Our home is located on a private peninsula that juts into Concord Pond, offering over 750 feet of waterfront. Find yourself waking to a 270-degree view of this peaceful body of water in the cradle of Woodstock’s beautiful mountains.

Panoramic windows ensure that even when you are inside you will be able to enjoy the tranquility of this setting. Come enjoy our propane grill, picnic tables, a natural jetty, and a fire pit that rests on a rock outcropping next to the water. In 2023 we installed a wrap-around, all-weather (covered) porch on the pond side of home - no more worries about rain; you can be outside any time, which visitors love.

Our home embodies the spirit of the eco-friendly area and is "off the grid," using all-solar electrical energy with a back-up generator and propane for stove and BBQ. The kitchen and bathrooms are refreshingly modern with a large shower and washing machine and dryer. We ask that you try to limit your use with the laundry machine in honor of our eco-friendly theme and our septic system.

This home provides accommodations for 9 people and has one and a half bathrooms. A second-floor master bedroom contains a queen bed and adjacent, large bedroom contains 3 singles and a bunk bed. A double bed in the downstairs den can comfortably sleep an additional 2 people. And, something we learned from some of our guests: Got kids? Got good friends who also have kids? 2 yeses - consider going in on a rental with your friends. 2 adult rooms for the parents and the large, upstairs "bunk room" for the kids works very well.

Nature lovers: Among some of the pond's common fauna, we have a mating pair of loons that live and thrive here in the clean ecosystem. It is not uncommon to kayak through the lake and have a loon emerge from the depth right next to your boat, and you will likely get to watch the loons raise their baby if past years are any judge. The loon’s nest tends to move around the pond, is protected, and should not be disturbed. Whether relaxing by the fire or in a kayak at sunrise or sunset, the eerie call of the loon will surely overwhelm. Bald eagles also call on this pond home and transient moose have been seen feeding in the shallow areas.

Adventure lovers: We have kayaks and canoes for exploring the pond and the island (please contribute to keeping the island clean and undisturbed to insure that the owner continues to allow public access). We are surrounded by great hiking trails such as those found on Bald and Speckle Mountains (trail-head only 10 minutes away). You are only a 40-minute drive to Sunday River, an extremely popular ski mountain for New Englanders throughout the winter but in the summer offering adrenaline-inducing as well as leisure activities. Around Sunday River you will find over 20 miles of mountain-biking terrain; zip-lining; golf; a 18-hole disc golf course; and, of course, hiking. For a more leisurely day, you can take the gondola up the mountain and enjoy a picnic with a vista or visit their top ski lodge for lunch and a beverage. We are also within an hour of some of the finest white water rafting and there are multiple ATV companies in the area.
