2 Bedroom House in Ashburnham
Welcome to Nutty Bird House! A Year-Round Lakefront Escape a welcoming and charming lakefront cottage in Ashburnham, Massachusetts, where the pace slows down and every season brings something different to enjoy. Nestled in nature with beautiful lake views the Nutty Bird is a peaceful place to relax, reconnect, explore, and experience a true New England getaway. Comfortably accommodating up to four guests, the cottage features two cozy bedrooms and two bathrooms, along with an open-concept kitchen, dining, living area, and family room designed for gathering and entertaining. Whether you're cooking dinner together, playing games around the table, curling up with a good book, or simply enjoying the view, Nutty Bird is comfortable, casual, and made for spending time together. And yes, pets are welcome! We know a getaway isn't quite the same when you have to leave a member of the family behind... A Kitchen That Feels Like Home... If you love to cook, you won't have to pack your entire kitchen to enjoy your stay. Nutty Bird's kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, glassware, cookware, utensils, and cooking essentials, along with pantry staples such as flour, sugar, coffee, and more. Make a big breakfast before heading out for a hike, prepare dinner after a day on the lake, or simply pour a cup of coffee and enjoy a quiet morning overlooking the water. The open-concept design keeps everyone together, making the cottage especially enjoyable for couples, families, and friends who want to cook, eat, relax, and spend time together... Lake Life & Outdoor Living...During the warmer months, the lake takes center stage. Spend your days swimming, kayaking, fishing, or simply relaxing by the water. Start your morning with coffee overlooking the lake, head out for a peaceful paddle in a kayak, cool off with an afternoon swim, cast a fishing line, or grab a book and do absolutely nothing at all. Nutty Bird has a private seasonal dock, typically available May through September. Installation and removal dates may vary depending on weather and lake conditions. When evening arrives, settle onto the lower deck and enjoy the propane fire pit. Pour your favorite drink, watch the light change over the water, and enjoy the peace and quiet. Some of the best moments at Nutty Bird are the simplest ones, morning coffee by the lake, an afternoon on the water, dinner together, or an evening outside with nowhere else you need to be... Winter on the Lake...Lake life doesn't end when summer does. When winter arrives and ice conditions are safely suitable, the frozen lake offers an entirely different experience, including opportunities for ice skating and ice fishing. Spend a crisp winter day outside and then come back to the cottage, warm up, make dinner, watch a movie, play a game, or curl up with a good book. Add nearby snowshoeing, sledding, hiking and skiing, and Nutty Bird becomes a wonderful home base for a winter getaway. Four Beautiful New England Seasons...Each season gives Nutty Bird a completely different personality. Summer is about swimming, kayaking, fishing, lake days, outdoor living and long evenings by the water. Fall brings crisp mornings, spectacular foliage, hiking, scenic drives and cozy evenings back at the cottage. Winter transforms the landscape, with ice skating, ice fishing, snowshoeing, sledding and skiing nearby when Mother Nature cooperates. Spring is peaceful and quiet as the lake and surrounding woods come back to life, a wonderful time for hiking, reading, relaxing and escaping for a few days before the busy summer season begins. Hiking and Mountains & Outdoor Adventures...If you enjoy getting outdoors, you'll have plenty to explore. Mount Watatic is a local favorite for hiking and scenic views, while Mount Hunger offers another opportunity to get outside and enjoy the landscape. Ashburnham State Forest provides even more access to the natural beauty surrounding the area. Ashburnham is also known as a gateway to the Wapack Trail and Massachusetts Midstate Trail, giving hikers options ranging from a day outdoors to a more ambitious adventure. Pack a lunch, hit the trails, take in the views and come back to Nutty Bird to relax by the lake. Ski Wachusett & Come Home to the Lake...Planning a winter getaway? Wachusett Mountain Ski Area in Westminster is approximately 25 miles away and offers downhill skiing and snowboarding. Spend your day on the mountain and then leave the crowds behind and return to the quiet of Nutty Bird for dinner, a glass of wine, a movie, or a peaceful evening overlooking the lake. It's a great combination of adventure during the day and lakefront tranquility at night. Traveling With Kids? For a completely different adventure, Great Wolf Lodge New England in nearby Fitchburg offers an indoor water park and family activities. It's a fun option for families, particularly when the New England weather isn't cooperating or the kids are looking for a day of excitement. Then come back to Nutty Bird when everyone is ready for a little peace and quiet. Visiting Cushing Academy? Nutty Bird is also a convenient home base for families, alumni, and visitors to Cushing Academy in Ashburnham. Whether you're in town for an admissions visit, open house, family weekend, athletic event, graduation, reunion, or simply spending time with your student, Nutty Bird gives you a comfortable lakefront retreat to return to at the end of the day. Rather than staying in a traditional hotel, settle into a home where you can make breakfast, cook dinner, relax together, bring the family dog, and enjoy some downtime between school activities. Discover Ashburnham...There's more to this small New England town than you might expect. Music lovers may enjoy discovering the Frederick Historic Piano Collection, part of Ashburnham's unique cultural history. Or simply get in the car and explore. This part of Massachusetts is made for country roads, small towns, hiking, foliage, scenic drives and discovering little pieces of New England along the way. And sometimes the best plan is no plan at all. Come Slow Down at Nutty Bird house and enjoy the lake cottage where you can sleep in, cook together, hike a mountain, kayak across the lake on a summer morning, swim on a hot afternoon, fish from the water's edge, watch the fall colors reflect across the lake, ice skate or ice fish on a crisp winter day, read a book, sit around the firepit, bring your dog, and enjoy having nowhere you need to be. Come for a summer lake vacation, Cushing Academy visit, fall foliage weekend, Wachusett ski getaway, hiking adventure, winter escape, family trip, or simply a few quiet days away from everyday life. Whatever brings you here, we hope Nutty Bird becomes one of those special places you look forward to returning to. Come settle in, slow down, and enjoy lake life at Nutty Bird.
