Under Brown Mountain Lights the Beast of Blandenboro wanders this magical land where lighthouses shine on kingdoms only accessible by ferries. A Lost Colony of legends and pirates revealed in historical sites and majestic mountains with views that make us weep. The home of handmade sculptures and scrumptious cuisine. North Carolina leaves this long-time writer and artist breathless with endless surprises, including the unlikely warmth a winter walk on the beach can bring.
At the northern tip of New Hampshire in the Great North Woods Region, sits the small, enchanted town of Colebrook. Located in Coös County, it is bordered on the west by the Connecticut River and home to the Beaver Brook Falls Natural Area. Artists and writers have been inspired to portray the views of the majestic White Mountains, and other bordering areas. Leave work behind and pack your bags for an awesome getaway to the Notch View Inn & Campground, where fun is around for the entire family. Who knows – you might even find yourself on an ATV.
The Notch View Inn & Campground offers panoramic views on its 34 acres, where the White Mountains are always available.
Private hiking trails, bicycling, canoeing, and kayaking are other ways to view the Presidential Range, which contains the highest peaks of the White Mountains, named for American presidents and other important people of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Camp sites are spaced apart with privacy in mind; firepits welcome a warm, intimate gathering.
Utilities are thoughtfully set up to allow you to face the mountain views.
The 41 large, full hook-up sites for RVs and campers, provide electricity, water, and sewer.

For large parties who would rather sleep indoors, the entire inn is available, sleeping up to 10 guests. A glamping tent is another unique rental. For photos of the inside, visit the website.
Some amenities include a smart TV, and a fully equipped kitchen stocked with glasses, plates, and cutlery.

The resort is centrally located on Ride the Wilds trail system, which is 1,000 miles of ATV trails. Rental packages are available from local businesses including the ATV, instruction and the required safety equipment.

This Northwest Portal is one of five traditional ways of entering Ride the Wilds, which includes the town of Colebrook. These multi-use trails offer rides for the novice or the experienced rider, with wilderness paths, country roads, breathtaking waterfalls, and a climb to the top of Dixville Peaks. Plenty of fishing is also available, as part of the trail travels along the Connecticut River.
Nature lovers will truly be in their element, as the Great North Woods offers 300 plus species of wildlife. For tips on spotting moose, visit this website.
Go explore even more natural beauty there, as it showcases the Huntington Cascades, less than a half mile from the Dixville Flume. For information about the Dixville Flume, click here.
