Beautiful Cabin
My family and I enjoyed our short stay at the cabin. It was peaceful, clean and relaxing environment! George was very communicative especially helpful with guidance in the area and hosting. There are additional costs for the cabin to use linens and trash pickup. I appreciate he offered us the opportunity to take our own linens, towels and dispose of our trash to save on costs. I also had some transportation issues on my side getting there and George was flexible. Nice memories in New Hampshire thanks to the cozy cabin!

Another fabulous stay here
Our family has been coming here for years and we absolutely love it. Our youngest was 7 when we first came and now he is 22! Relax with a book, go for a hike, go for a run or xc ski on the nearby trails, fall asleep in the grass, cook up a good meal, enjoy each other’s company without tv or constant internet distractions. It’s cabin living as it should be. George could teach a masterclass on being the best owner for renters; he’s truly one of our favorite people ever.

A wonderful getaway to unplug and recharge
From the minute we booked, George was incredibly friendly and helpful, sending us directions, restaurant reccomendations, and helpful videos to help ensure our stay is as good as possible! He called me as soon as we arrived to welcome us and give us an opportunity in case we had any questions. This cabin was wonderfully secluded and I don't think I've EVER seen so many stars at night. The cabin was also so welcoming, and decorated like an outdoorsmens dream! I will say, as the description already says, you will need 4/all wheel drive for the driveway in the snow/mud season. Also be aware that many of Jackson's restaurants are closed in the beginning days of the week, but North Conway is a short drive to many restaurants and shopping! Overall it's a great place to unplug and reconnect with loved ones and the great outdoors!

This is the perfect small cabin in the woods! Up a dead end road where the forest trails (ski and hike) begin. For folks who like nature and a calming place. The owner was always available by text and most helpful. It is heated by woodstove 80%, has good cell phone reception, lots of dvds. Center of Jackson with good restaurants 6 min. away. We are planning to return.

The perfect quiet getaway.
The definition of serenity. A perfect full size cabin nestled in the woods on the side of a mountain that is as far away as you can be without having to go far away. Our family visited in February for a snow-cation and we weren’t disappointed at all. George, the owner, was very responsive and provided a wealth of recommendations for local amenities and activities. The cabin had all we needed. We even spent two days just in the cabin itself relaxing, reading by the fire, and playing board games. An escape from reality our family desperately needed. I am certain that we will make our way back to “ Thistle Rock!”

Beautiful secluded cabin with a lovely wood stove
We love the Jackson and Conway areas of New Hampshire. Great for hiking and kayaking, also great food (though more in Conway). This was the perfect place we needed for our anniversary weekend away, free of distractions. The ONE negative: I get charging $25 for bed linens and towels, as laundry is a significant additional effort. But charging the same for trash removal? We lugged a bag of garbage 200 miles back home. Guests shouldn't have to do that. Trash disposal is a basic service and shouldn't be extra. Didn't affect my overall view of the place that much, but it wasn't a nice end of the trip.

Do not hesitate to rent this place! It has the feel of a remote mountain cabin and is a real Jackson, NH experience. You also have all the amenities and more for comfort. The place is right next to ski trails and National Forest. There is plenty of cool local history to explore in his place as well. George is an amazing communicator and is a conscientious host who genuinely cares about his guests and their experience at Thistlerock. His caretaker Alice does a great job preparing the place for your visit. Do not hesitate to give it a try. Also...Thanks for sharing your place to others!

Highlight of the Whole Trip!
George is an awesome man. I'm convinced he truly does provide the best stay in all of the White Mountains. He is a great host that actually cares how the cabin and area treats his guests. He went above and beyond for us, and I have no doubt he does the same for anyone that comes his way. The cabin felt like home, and with so many pictures and memorabilia it felt like we were taken in as family. Outside of the cabin we did all of the things a typical leaf-peeper does during the autumn season in NH - scenic drives, hiked, saw amazing views, rode a train, ate great food, and yet we were completely content to just stay at the cabin when all was said and done. So clean. So cozy. So simply the best. We are so grateful for how this trip turned out because of this lovely cabin.

The perfect cabin settled in the mountains of New Hampshire
Our family stay at Thistle Rock was everything we could ask for. The charm and character of the cabin had all of us instantly hooked. Everything was clean and welcoming as we entered the cabin. There was even some music playing off the radio, which was a pleasing touch. The location was peacefully quiet, with a perfect amount of outdoor area, to relax and enjoy the views of the distant mountains. The wood stove, the loft, and excellently suited cabin decor, offered the perfect feel for lodging amongst the mountains in New Hampshire. The outdoor shower was an added plus, and felt exhilarating after a day of hiking. George was an amazing host with utmost courtesy, and always ensured we had everything we needed. He called to welcome us, and even sent some suggestions for places of interest in the area. What else can I say? The place was AWESOME!, and we only wished we could have booked it for a longer stay. Definitely looking forward to coming back soon! Thank you for the great memories.

The house was great! Super clean and beds were comfortable. The perfect balance of feeling "out in the woods" but also just a 5-10 minute drive to the cute town of Jackson. Awesome trails to take advantage of right from the driveway, my dog loved it. George was super communicative and even offered us a later check out because he knew we were at a wedding the night before! Would love to come back!!

Labor Day weekend in Jackson, New Hampshire.
We loved staying in the Cabin. The cabin is spacious and very attractive, and it was easy to find. I had a strained hamstring so we did not climb Mt. Washington, be we did take the cog railway on a Bluebird day. We also climbed Black Mt. which was easier, and we visited the falls and also took a cable car up Wildcat. The cabin is well situated for visiting the area.
