The 2nd-biggest city in New Hampshire
Nashua might only have a population of just over 85,000, but it's still the second largest city in New Hampshire. It boomed during the days of the textile industry, which fueled its growth. It has twice been named the best place to live in America and when you visit the buzzy little city, you'll find out why. Not only is there a wealth of cultural attractions to explore right on the doorstep of your Nashua vacation rental, you've also got the vast wilderness of the White Mountain National Forest just a short distance away.

Shop till you drop
Often called The Jewel of Nashua, the Mine Falls Park that stretches along the edge of the Nashua River and canal is a haven for bikers and joggers. If you make it to the western end of the park, you'll be treated to a gorgeous waterfall which is particularly beautiful after the snow melts in spring. If you're bringing your family to stay in a Nashua vacation rental, Greeley Park is the perfect place to while away a sunny afternoon. The nearby Merrimack Premium Outlets offers tax-free bargains that will satisfy even the pickiest of shoppers.
Hot summers and snowy winters
Nashua is characterized by long, hot summers and snowy winters, with relatively brief shoulder seasons. If you're lucky enough to have nabbed a Nashua vacation rental between July and August, you'll most likely have gloriously bright days cooled somewhat by the mountain breeze. This is the time most families with children book a stay. If you want to avoid the crowds, try to score a rental in spring or fall when the prices and temperature are a little lower. The flurries of snow between December and February carpet the landscape and attract cross-country skiers and snowmobilers.
You don't have to travel far to get back to nature
The Mine Falls Park offers several different ecosystems, from high pine forest to swampy marshland and river systems that provide habitats for a surprising number of wildlife species. Along the banks of Mill Pond, you'll often see majestic great blue herons and colorful belted kingfishers, as well as noisy bullfrogs, the odd turtle and waterfowl. As well as more familiar creatures like squirrels, busy little beavers and minks have carved out homes for themselves here. You may even see other furry friends like otters and cheeky chipmunks. Just be sure to bring your camera.
