  • Favorite Thing: North Conway has the looks and the charm of the olden days . And at the same time, the outlet stores are filled with the latest fashon and designer clothes.

    Getting to Conway is easy: From the South take i-93 north to exit 32 in Lincoln, and head east on Route 112, the Kancamagus Highway, known also as the 'Kank'
    This 34-mile scenic byway is one of the most breathtaking routes in this erea. It runs right through the middle of the White Mountain National Forest.
    Stop and see Rocky Gorge , about 26 miles east, a bridge over the loud falls to a footpath around Falls Pond.
    The Kank is known for many moose-sightings, especially at dawn, dusk or night. The ' Moose Warning ' signs are not a joke.

    Fondest Memory: The quaint little stores with their unique treasures.
    The Conway Scenic Railway.
    Visiting Story Land with our children.

  • Favorite Thing: A mountain with a gigantic rock ledge called 'White Horse Ledge'
    The Indians thought of it quite special.
    When the sun shines on it and you look closely ,
    you can see a large white horse image on the stone.

    Fondest Memory: We had an exchange student from Italy with us.
    We went to Cathedral Ledge where you have a beautiful view over the mountains and the valley.
    The Town of North Conway sits nestled between the trees below.

  • Favorite Thing: Just behind the fence is a steep ledge where rock-climbers try to conquer the rocks.

    Fondest Memory: The mountains are breath-taking. From here you can see the White Mountains. The town of Conway lays below. In the distance you can see ski-slopes they are very busy in the winter.

     Rude! Rude! Doesn't even begin to describe this place. The Front desk staff was arrogant. The food was terrible the server was rude and owner needs to find a new career that doens't involve working with the public. She should be ashamed of her behavior.

     Hi. We'll be taking a ski trip to your lovley town, Conway this year, and found your page. It's really great. Thanks for all the great info.

     Of all the states in the East, New Hamshire is my favorite for its scenery and its wonderful people. Your pages renewed that fact. The White Mountains and the Hotel were marvrelous. We golfed there and have such fond memories. Great job!
