The more-affordable entry level pricing of waterfront vacation homes in this area continues to drive more and more fourseason tourism as summer beach fronts become snowmobile central or a quick trip to numerous ski resorts. Mountain condos become easy day trips all summer long throughout the Granite State. From the White Mountains to the NH Seacoast and everywhere in between, let our experience Inside This Is sue... team of professionals craft a Tourism Marketing message Find More for your business. Designed to reach new customers with larger sources of disposable income. After all, they’re not all tourists. Many of them are Super Tourists. The US Census says only 6% of Americans own more than one home, and most of these second homes cost more than our everyday home. Likewise, the Lakes Region Tourism Association estimates there are over 50,000 second homes in the Lakes Region alone. That’s a city larger than Manchester with very few land lines and even fewer mailboxes. Let us help you reach this luxury market for less.
This, combined with over 35 ponds and lakes ranging from 500 to 5,000 acres, means the area between Dover and the White Mountains is one of the most geographically intriguing places on the planet. The area was born and shaped by extinct volcanoes; you’ll find great adventure just off this beaten path and an independent spirit that’s a bit different from the Winnipesaukee experience.
long Route 16 is a celebration of the Eastern Lakes and Mountains Region of New Hampshire. The incorporation of the major highway leading to the White Mountains has left many of the quintessential New England towns unchanged by history, just a bit off the highway.
