All summer, kids stay, play, and eat free at Cardigan Lodge and Lonesome Lake Hut. Bring the little ones to Cardigan Lodge, and explore nature trails, waterfalls, pond critters, and more. For families that are ready for an overnight in the backcountry, Lonesome Lake Hut is the perfect destination.

With a small pond for splashing, short waterfall hike, nature trails, and proximity to a sandy beach on Newfound Lake, Cardigan is ideal for younger families. More ambitious young explorers can hike to the summit of Mt. Cardigan, searching for blueberries and salamanders along the way. Lonesome Lake Hut offers a short hike into the hut, water to splash in, and evening naturalist programs geared toward young explorers.
