Explore 800,000 acres of pristine forest
The little community of Intervale sits snuggly in the White Mountain National Forest. Staying in one of the few Intervale vacation rentals will give you access to some of the most remote and wild regions in the state. If you head up to the forest, you'll have more than 800,000 acres of pristine park to explore by foot or bike and mountains to ski or snowboard during the winter. When you return, you can drive a little further south, and you'll have all the dining and cultural attractions of North Conway as well as a 200-factory strong shopping outlet.
Frothy craft brews and smokehouse BBQs
For more than 50 years, Story Land has been wowing kids with character-based rollercoasters and shows. You can get wet on the Bamboo Chutes, sit down for tea with Cinderella or dance the afternoon away with Duke the Dragon. For something more adult, try M&D Productions, a community-based theater which has created plenty of award-winning musicals and dramas over the years. Afterwards, you can pop into the Moat Mountain Smokehouse & Brewing Co. for a frothy craft beer created in-house, accompanied by some lip-smacking burgers and BBQ meats.
Hike and bike or ski and snowboard
The activities on offer vary immensely depending on the season you visit. Between spring and fall, the dozens of hiking trails are popular with vacationers. Alternatively, you can saddle up to ride along the banks of the rivers and through the pastures and forests. If you bring the kids, they'll love the wagon rides at Intervale Community Farm. During winter, you can use your Intervale vacation rental as a base and head to the hills to snowboard down the powdery slopes or strap on your cross-country skis to explore the snowy wonderland.
Intervale vacation rentals are open year-round
Intervale vacation rentals welcome guests all year round. Of course, it'll come as no surprise that the summer break months are busiest with family vacationers. Book up early if you want to hit the slopes during winter. During the shoulder months, the weather can be gloriously warm and the crowds all but disappear. Spring is characterized by sunny and bright days, perfect for hiking, while fall couldn't be more scenic as the leaves turn from bright green to shades of orange or red. As well as fewer crowds, you'll also have fewer mosquitoes to contend with.
Spot the elusive bobcat
If you get excited about the thought of seeing moose ambling through the marshy wetlands or falcons nesting in the cliffs, you've come to the right place. You don't need a guide to reach the White Mountain National Forest from your Intervale vacation rental. While you're there, you'll likely spot bounding deer and beavers busy damming the little brooks and mountain streams. Though more elusive, hikers have been known to come across the odd coyote and bobcat. If you're lucky, you may even spot a black bear in the distance, perhaps with cubs in tow.
