Cottage on Newfound Lake
We drove up to Newfound Lake from MA. The cabin was camp-style comfortable, slept Grandma and Grandpa in one bedroom and 2 adults + 2 kids in the other bedroom (one child on the floor, there's 3 twin beds). A good selection of board games, puzzles, and movies were in the living room. Beautiful breezy front porch. Great grassy shady yard. Swing set (available to the association) right next to the duplex. Must be a typo-- there's only one bathroom in the cabin. The whole cabin was SPOTLESS, and I'm picky. There were sparkling-clean bed linens, but there were no towels. The owners are delightfully friendly and generous. Clean and functional kitchen.
No exaggeration: Newfound Lake is virtually drinkable, its so clean. Gorgeous, mountainous, low-key, super-friendly area. Great swimming area 20 ft. from house. Nearby downtown Bristol (5 minutes away) has some cute shops and the necessities.
Definitely: Go see Sculptured rocks (15 minutes away), ask a local for directions, wear your bathing suit.
See Profile falls (15 minute drive + a very short hike), wear your suit.
Rainy day: Kellerhaus Ice Cream Sundae bar and gift shop (25 minutes away), and "Fun Spot"--huge arcade/bowling/skee ball etc.(5 minutes from Kellerhaus).
