New Hampshire Winter Activities

Winter is a great season in the Squam Lakes region offering a real variety of winter activities to our visitors. Snow blankets the hillsides and the lake waters turn to ice creating a special sense of peace and tranquility. Winter sports abound throughout the area including many miles of Snowmobiling trails. Of course, there is nothing like settling down in the sitting room of our NH bed and breakfast next to a crackling fire with a cup of hot chocolate after an afternoon of skating, skiing or snowshoeing. For something a little different you might want to take a horse drawn sleigh ride or spend part of your day on a sled dog ride. You can do it all while staying at our NH bed and breakfast!
