We came to the Rocks for a Spring Break trip in March. I actually had found it a couple weeks…read morebefore our trip because I was looking for a place to show my kids the process of making maple syrup. I saw they did private tours so I booked it with me and the family we were traveling with. It ended up being a GREAT experience and we had Nigel as our guide. He was very knowledgeable and kind and allowed our kids (4 boys) to interact with the process and tap some trees. We also got to sample some syrups and candies while there. It was so neat to learn about everything and walk around this beautiful area. Thank you so much for your kindness. We will remember this forever.

After…read morethe devastating fire last year and COVID this year we were concerned about their ability to open for the season. So, we were pleasantly surprised to not only find that they were open but also had an online reservation system to support social distancing. We had a great experience, wearing masks, and came home with a great looking tree! We even spent some time chatting with the farm's manager, Nigel, about their plans for the future: a great guy! Highly recommended! And it supports the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests, too.

Unlike other spooky attractions this isn't just jump scares and played out tropes. It actually works to give chills and tingles, even to a jaded haunt goer such as myself. If this is the quality they put into all their productions, wow, what a gem I've been missing. Speaking of missing a hidden gem, it's tough to find behind all the construction right now, but it's 100% worth it.

One more weekend of skiing in the 2026-2026 ski season and most of Waterville Valley ski resort was…read morelocked down, save a few venues. Our favorite pub and restaurant was closed so we went to the Freestyle Lounge, usually filled worn people up to the rafters. This time it was pleasantly busy but with plenty of space for leisure and an unhurried lunch. We ordered from the bar and picked up our food and drinks there. The bartenders were quite friendly. I had the Schwendi IPA, brewed by the operator of the iconic Schwendi Hutte at top of the mountain. As well, the Korean Sloppy Joe's that were advertised as spicy but for us it was quite bland. There was a steady string of people coming in for food and merriment, and as the temperature climbed into the 60s, the outside area became the preferred place to be. Really superb place to spend leisure time during a busy ski day.

We recently rented Maplewood Golf Resort in Bethlehem, NH, to celebrate my husband and his twin…read morebrother's 60th birthday, and I cannot say enough good things about our experience. In addition to hosting the party at the resort, we reserved all 20 guest rooms for our family and friends. From the very beginning, Dana and her team were incredible to work with--accommodating, patient, responsive, and genuinely kind. Planning a large event can be stressful, but they made the entire process easy and enjoyable. A special shout-out to Mazie, Paige, and Linda for their exceptional bartending service. They were friendly, attentive, and helped make the celebration even more enjoyable for our guests. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful. The grounds are stunning, the views are breathtaking, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The guest rooms are spacious, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The golf course was outstanding as well. Trevor and his team went above and beyond throughout the weekend, constantly checking in to see if there was anything we needed and making sure our guests were taken care of. Their hospitality was exceptional. What sets Maplewood apart is the feeling you get the moment you walk through the door--you instantly feel at home. The people, the service, the scenery, and the overall experience are second to none. I highly recommend Maplewood Golf Resort for weddings, family celebrations, reunions, golf outings, or any special event. It has become my favorite venue in the North Country, and we look forward to returning.
