Food Scene
Unbelievable breads and pastries. Simply the best. Not open Mon-Tuesday. Cinnamon rolls are a family favorite. But the croissants, baguettes, boules, muffins, etc all to die for.

Great vibe here, great coffee, local art, free wi-fi, perfect location, good music, comfy sofas, what else can you ask for in a coffee house? I have spent HOURS in here working when I needed a space to chill and get some writing in. Even wrote a bit of my dissertation here. Holds a special place in my heart.

Sightseeing
Where else can you drive onto a 6000+ foot mountain??? Unreal. Not for the faint of heart behind the wheel. An utterly memorable trip to the top of the most iconic mountain on the Appalachian Trail.

Um, well, you can take a train up the iconic mountain too. It's pretty outstanding. Try to go on a rare day when the top of Mount Washington is clear. It's a bummer to get all the way up there only to be in a cloud.

Shopping
Quality hand-crafted leather items, especially belts, wallets, handbags, jackets (bikers especially), shoes, and packs. Wonderful shop that we visit every summer.

Perfect toy store. Old school items with a touch of the new. They gift wrap everything on request. Right on the main drag. Just don't bring your kids in with you. Lol.

Getting Around
You shouldn't need a car rental from here unless your car breaks down. But that has happened to us more times than we care to admit. We LOVE this little Hertz rental shop around the corner from us. They have been clutch for us at least a dozen times over the years.

Parks & Nature
Possibly our all-time favorite hike in the area. Easy-moderate hike. Takes 1-1.5 hours to get up. STUNNING views for the level of difficulty.

Lovely loop trail hike around an enclosed mountain pond. Loons can be seen and heard. Mostly flat. Good for rainy days because no views except the pond. Really quiet and peaceful.

Super popular spot for lounging in summer. Cascading water on mountain rocks. A short 15 minute walk to get there. Bring food, snacks, pads and towels for lounging. Drinks. You'll see it all at Diana's baths.
