Want to know what’s way better than Chipotle? This place! Similar concept but homemade and more original. Great & fast when you’re starving after a hike or skiing. The line can get long so go on their website and order ahead for pick-up. Add on the pickled onions & a side of their dressing or BBQ sauce, you will thank us later.

Since this place has opened it has been SLAMMED! People love this place, not just for the beer but for the BBQ/ food, too. In Winter seating is limited so you may wait in line. In warmer months they have a HUGE outdoor seating area. If you get take-out be sure to ask about the beer selection and take some home!

A short 10 minute walk to arrive at this amazing waterfall. After parking, go down & to the left under the bridge, then an immediate right. Note- it’s an easy walk, but steep, with lots of stairs, and gets slippery during Spring/Fall.

Ok this is for adults & kids, but there’s a reason why this place has hundreds of thousands of visitors every year! It’s a must see! Tickets sell out VERY quickly, and they’re only open in January and February so get your tickets quick. Note- this is about a 1 hr and 15 min drive from our place. The fastest way a GPS will say to go is over the Kangamangus Highway but this is closed in the winter, so please go the 93 route instead!

Hiking & Trails

Please keep in mind the level of difficulty is hard for us to determine, as everyone has a different skill set. We recommend using the app “AllTrails” to look up the trails before going, which will give you a more in-depth description of the difficulty, and what to be prepared with.
This is behind our townhouse in the backyard :) just go to the middle of the backyard and there is a path straight to the back woods. Super easy and flat! There are multiple trails back there. Pro tip- download the app “Trailforks” and it has all the trails back there. It’s virtual so you can see where you are at on the trails. This picture was taken from the end of the “Railroad” trail

Great for beginners (that are fine walking up hill for 30-45 min) and great views on top. Make sure to wear proper shoes as there are a lot of pebbles towards the top. When you get to the fork it will say black cap summit to the left, BUT go to the right and it will loop around to the summit with much better views and an easier, less rocky path.

Intermediate level hike with great views on top. A lot of beginners try this, you can do it if you’re a beginner but only if you are in good walking shape. Many boulders if you take the right trail so just be aware and where proper footwear.

This trail is SUPER popular with tourists. Tallest waterfall in NH. Beginners try it but keep in mind it’s straight up hill for over an hour. We saw a lot of people give up halfway when we did it. You won’t have views from the top just the waterfall. The water level is dependent on the season and how much water we’ve had in the area. Spring will have the best water flow from the melted snow. If you love waterfalls it’s great- we actually like more of a view so felt this wasn’t worth the hike. But it is popular!
