Trailside at Middle Pond

Welcome to direct atv and snowmobile trail access, while enjoying the quiet waterfront of Middle Pond; an eight acre stocked public pond. Middle Pond Lane is off of Moose Pond Road, which is part of Pittsburg’s vast ATV and snowmobile trail system. Located .8 miles from Back Lake Road, this cabin is centrally located to Pittsburg’s amenities.

Cabin consists of kitchen and living area, one bathroom, two bedrooms (one king, one queen), along with a loft consisting of two twin beds, a queen, and a pull-out couch. A sitting area on the porch, gas grill, and a fire pit are included. Top it off with a dock, kayaks, and a row boat, you have everything you need to enjoy the pond.
(Please note: fire pit, dock, and boats are pulled from the end of October until Spring).

No pets allowed.

Check in time is 3:00 PM.
Check out time is 10:00 AM.

We offer a 15% discount for military and first responders. Please contact us to apply such to your inquiry/booking. Thank you for your service!

Physical address is 24 Middle Pond Lane, however most mapping systems will only come up with Middle Pond.

Directions from Main Street, Pittsburg:
-Take a left onto Back Lake Road (across from Top Gas).
-Travel 2.6 miles, then take a left onto Moose Pond Road.
-Travel .8 miles until Middle Pond Lane is on your left (just after Overlook Drive, you can see the cabin down the hill on the left one telephone pole after Overlook Drive). Middle Pond Lane consists of two properties (#8 is to the right, our cabin is straight ahead when looking at the start of the lane).


FAQ: Couple of questions we receive about the property:

Q: Do you have direct trail access for atv/snowmobile?
A: Yes! Simply walk out the door, hop on your rig, and head on out. You will be directly on the trail system upon pulling down our driveway. Snowmobilers, for a reference point, we are located on Moose Pond Road halfway between Back Lake Road and Trail # 146.

Q: Where can we park our truck/trailers so we can ride the trails for the day after we leave your property? Can we leave them at the cabin?
A: Our housekeepers often have a five hour window in between guest stays. This window doesn’t just include cleaning of the cabin, but also mowing/plowing and other outside upkeep. We have to respectfully ask our guests that have checked out to utilize the designated parking lot across from the trail head on Back Lake Road (approximately 1.8 miles from Moose Pond Road).

Q: Is there a sandy beach on the property?
A: Like most designated trout ponds in New Hampshire, Middle Pond has a vegetative bottom/ shoreline. For swimming, we always recommend to our guests either Philbrook Beach on Back Lake (2.4 miles away), or the beach on First Connecticut Lake (7 miles away).

Q: Are linens included?
A: Yes! Towels, linens, and just about everything you would need in the kitchen are there. Toiletries, hand soaps, and paper products are not provided.

Q: Is firewood/ fire starting materials included?
A: No. We do have guests leave some behind for the next ones to use, but it is not always guaranteed to be there. There are a couple of businesses in the area that are very reasonably priced if you decide to pick up once you arrive in town.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, which features a fireplace. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Guests will find features like internet access.

Always worth it
We have stayed here multiple times and it has always exceeded expectations. Very clean, well appointed, convenient location but very private. There were 5 guys this year and we all had a comfortable bed and all the space we needed.

Perfect launching pad for fishing
My dad and I stayed here for fly fishing. The location was perfect, quiet, on a pond (pretty sure we heard a moose), close to everything outdoors and restaurants. The beds were very comfortable. We will definitely come back again! Areas for improvement only center around the WiFi strength and I wish we realized the correct remote for the TV was the one that said dish on it a little sooner, but those are the reasons to get out into the north country anyway, to disconnect! We had a great time!

AMAZING!!
The pictures don't justify the beauty of the view! From the moment you arrive,it is relaxing. We brought our fishing poles and hung out on the dock. The next day after a wonderful night's sleep due to the really comfy bed, we rented ATVS that we were able to ride right to the house. The landlord/ host Anthony was so helpful and got right back to me if I had a question. I would HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place

Such a special place!
Amazing stay on this beautiful pond. Watched loons as we paddled around the very quiet and calm water. The house was very clean and was well equipped with everything from quality pots and pans to plenty of watercraft! It was clear all of the little things were thought of that are often missed in other places we have vacationed at. We took a drive on moose alley twice and saw moose both times. Such a perfect stay in a really beautiful place!

This would be our second time coming here....absolutely love the location and house...also like that since our last stay there had been upgrades from the stairs to the dock and new stairs to the house to even a new paddle boat.... you can tell the owner cares about the guest's stay...will definitely be coming back I throughly enjoy my time at this location! There's nothing like waking up walking out the door grabbing a kayak and your fishing pole and hammering brook trout regardless your angling skill! My wife easily caught fish there and shes not a angler so it makes it fun for everbody!

Perfect location for a relaxing family vacation
Our family had an absolutely incredible stay at this charming cabin on Middle Pond. The location was convenient to all of Pittsburg’s amenities, but we mostly stayed on the property. There is something for everyone - ATV trails for adventure and the pond for connecting with nature. The cabin itself was very clean and the perfect size for our family. It was cozy and had plenty of sleeping spots. The dock, kayaks, and rowboat were the highlights for our kids—they couldn’t get enough of the water. The hosts were exceptionally communicative and attentive. Despite a storm a few days before our arrival, they ensured everything was in perfect working order for us. Their dedication to our comfort was above and beyond. We've been on many family vacations, but this one stood out as our kids' absolute favorite. Our only regret is that we only stayed for three nights—next time, we’ll definitely plan for a longer stay. We can’t wait to return to this wonderful cabin! Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

It was our second year on Middle Pond and it was another awesome trip. The house has everything you could need and more. Easy check in/out. Super clean. We couldn't ask for a better place to stay and can't wait to come back next year!

Nice cozy home on the pond. We enjoyed the paddle boat and location to the trails. We had a minor issue in the beginning of our stay, that was out of everyone's control but the owner and wonderful housekeeper took care of it quickly and we enjoyed the rest of stay. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful, comfortable, clean and serene!
This was the perfect location to base my week of enjoying, viewing, and photographing nature! I had a minor issue with the heat not working when I first arrived, but it was quickly resolved by the caretakers who also gave me some wonderful tips on where to find wildlife. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, dishes and pans, the hot water was plentiful and beds very comfortable. Everything was clean and the provided kayaks were well kept and fun to use! I hope to return for another stay! Note: Verizon cell phone service was very spotty in the area and the internet service was not fast in the house, but was useable.

Beautiful place to stay in Pittsburg!
Overall this cabin was awesome, very clean, and great location to snowmobiling trails. We would definitely recommend this cabin to other friend and family. The one caveat was the road leading into the cabin has a tight hairpin which is difficult to navigate with large trailers.

Stayed Nov 8-19 to hunt. The property was 100% as listed and very clean. Unit is of high quality and we really enjoyed our 10 nights. All appliances worked and there were 4 TV’s with streaming… one in every room… I’m expect to rebook next year…

Great getaway
We have stayed in this house a few times and it has never disappointed. The quiet location by the pond and the fire pit are excellent outdoor gathering places, the proximity to the trails and the Buck Rub make for a great base camp for all sorts of adventure. The house was clean and well appointed, with everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.
