Experience a Side of North Woodstock You May Have Overlooked

Although North Woodstock is convenient to all of the natural wonders of Franconia Notch State Park and the recreational pursuits of the White Mountain National Forest, this little village near Lincoln holds an allure all its own that you have to see to believe.

Many visitors arrive in North Woodstock expecting all of your run-of-the-mill White Mountains activities. Skiing at Loon Mountain, hiking in the Franconia Notch State Park, visiting Flume Gorge, and fishing in Echo Lake are just a few of the nearby options, but you could also easily enjoy these from a Lincoln vacation rental. So what really sets North Woodstock apart?

To start, the Lost River Gorge and Boulder Caves is one attraction whose stunning beauty and mysterious nature will never disappoint. Also known as the Lost River Reservation, this series of caves in Kinsman Notch offers a memorable journey along the Lost River as visitors wriggle through passages and cross boardwalks all while enjoying amazing sights such as Paradise Falls.

Next on any itinerary must be a stop by Clark’s Trading Post to catch a glimpse of the famous Bear Show, where trained black bears play a little Bearsketball and put on a display of tricks and antics. And afterwards, you can enjoy the other attractions of this family entertainment center, including a circus, the White Mountain Central Railroad, a mystical mansion, and several museums.

Still looking for attractions right outside your North Woodstock home rental? Speed enthusiasts will definitely want to visit the White Mountain Motorsports Park for exciting stock car racing, while those looking for a quieter, more scenic option can hit the links at the Jack O’Lantern Golf Course in nearby Woodstock.
