The Backside Inn is a historic inn on Brook Road in Goshen, New Hampshire. The oldest portion of the two-story structure is a 1-1/2 story plank-framed house that was built in 1835 as a farmhouse. It is one of a significant concentration of plank-framed houses in the area.[2] The building was adapted for use as a hunting lodge in the 1920s,[3] and was enlarged in the 1950s and 1960s.[2] The inn takes its name from its location, which is on the "back side" of the nearby Mount Sunapee resort area.[3]

The inn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
