The Wilderness Inn is snuggled within the White Mountain National Forest, five miles south of Franconia Notch State Park in the quaint New England town of North Woodstock, New Hampshire. Built in 1912 as a lumbermill owner’s home, the inn still has a country house atmosphere that welcomes guests to this "neck of the woods".
All seven bedrooms and suites, each with a private bath, as well as the "honeymoon" cottage overlooking Lost River, are smoke free, individually decorated, and feature photographs and articles of a foreign country. Each room has individually controlled heat and cable television, and the five second floor rooms are centrally air-conditioned in summer. The Inn’s living room has a large working fireplace, the perfect place to savor a cup of hot, mulled cider after a day of skiing. The bright front porch is a welcoming spot to enjoy a cold glass of lemonade in the summer.
A delicious and generous gourmet breakfast from an extensive menu is served each morning. In the summer, enjoy your morning repast on the enclosed sunporch. Start with fruit juice, homebaked muffins, fresh fruit salad, and your choice of teas or the Inn’s own blend of French Roast and Columbian coffee freshly ground each morning. Your morning meal may also include pancakes, crêpes, French toast, omelets, or eggs. Tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and lemonade or cider (in season) are available in the afternoon.
