My friends and I are looking for a fun area in NH to rent a condo/townhouse for NYE? We'd like to be near a ski mountain, but also near a fun bar/club to party on NYE. We are a crowd of 25-28 year olds from Boston & NYC looking to get out of the big city but still have a fun party on NYE...not looking for a resort type of environment where we'll be celebrating a "dinner" party with kids and families...
Any suggestions?? Every NYE party I find near a ski slope seems to have family oriented events - not that we need some fancy club because we're happy with a fun local bar (none of us are single so we don't care about that either) - just lookin' to have a good time in a fun town with options!
We're not total big city snobs, so a quaint fun town would be ideal!
North Conway.... fun little downtown with a ski town feel in the winter, lots of restaurants and bars, and very close to wildcat, Brenton Woods, Attitash, Cranmore, and Black Mountain ski areas.
The other bet would probably be Lincoln, but it has less of a "Village" feel. Cannon and Loon are pretty close by.
Honestly, if you want the most nightlife along with great skiing you should probably head to Killington in VT though. It is always written up in national ski mags as for it's nightlife, and it's the biggest mountain in the east (for skiing).
I am also heading up to North Conway for NYE from Southeastern MA. Do you know of the names of any bars or places that will have music, food and drinks. I also fit the profile of Angelesta's thread that you responded to. I have checked big hotels like the White Mountain B+B in NC and hey have a big dinner planned but the band is a five piece that plays the blues, etc. Not really looking for that on NYE. I have checked Lincoln also and have been to the Woodstock Inn numerous times but it's sold out. I have also been to North Conway a bunch of times also but not on NYE so any help would be great. Thank You
Not too sure on specific places. I stayed up there last xmas at a B&B. We just walked the streets and walked in places that looked good. I assume on NYE it will be a little too crowded to window shop much.
One place that is phenomenal to eat is Maestros. It's tucked back off 16 and small, but its some of the bets italian food I've ever eaten.....and I can usually take or leave italian. this wasn't plain old pasta and tomato sauce.
It's a bit of a drive from NC but if you can, stop inn and get a drink at the Mt. Washington Inn. There is a bar downstairs in the old wine cellar. VERY cool place....and it's supposed to be haunted. By far one of the coolest places in NE.
A decade ago, I remember there use to be a bunch of places that use to do nighttime skiing...You could ski until 11:30, hit the lodge, celebrate new years and then go skiing at 12:15am...That was when the economy was good though, so no idea anyone still does that.
Delaney's and the White Horse Pub are my personal favorites and my crowd (22-26 year olds) usually frequents those two, but they're probably not what you're looking for, they have a small town bar atmosphere and not much dancing/music. The Red Parka might be up your alley, and they also built a new dance club up there that I had heard about, but I've never been and can't recall the name. North Conway is definitely where you want to be though, I myself wouldn't go anywhere else.
