NHOC Cabins Cabins Our Home in the Great Outdoors Jackson Franky Roomates Julia and Marie much prefer our Jackson Cabin over their dormroom. We have a cabin in Jackson, NH, and another in Franconia Notch State Park. They are isolated, not marked, and are not visible from nearby roads or hiking trails which makes them a great place to get away for the weekend. The cabins are designed to minimize impact on the environment. Each uses propane for its cooking stove and gas lights.
Heat is supplied by a wood-burning stove, which is sometimes used for cooking also.
As for bathrooms, a composting outhouse is located right outside. There is no water at our cabins. Although there are water sources nearby, they are contaminated by the animals and we usually bring all the water we plan to use. At the NHOC we're suckers for a decent view of the galaxy. When weather permits, we like to fall asleep on the deck of the cabin, counting meteors and trying to imagine the size of the universe.
