Have you made any fun winter plans for the holiday season? If not, visit North Conway! Situated in the snow-capped peaks of the White Mountains, every winter season, this quaint little town is transformed into a winter scene that looks like it’s straight out of a Hallmark movie! Whether you’re seeking outdoor adventures, cozy sessions by the fireplace, or a night out on the town, North Conway has something for everyone. For your upcoming stay at a bed & breakfast in the area, here are some exciting winter attractions that are worth your time and attention.   

Hit the Slopes with Your Skis or Snowboard

For those looking to get a little skiing or snowboarding in during their winter break, North Conway is near some of the best slopes in the entire country and is frequently voted as one of North America’s very best ski towns. Some spots that both locals and travelers from all over enjoy include Cranmore Mountain, Attitash, and Wildcat, as well as smaller gems like Black Mountain for classic slopes that are perfect for all skill levels.  

Ice Skating, Sleigh Rides, & Snowshoeing

Skiing and snowboarding are fine ways to enjoy the fresh powder and wintery landscapes, but they aren’t your only options. For non-skiers, there are plenty of spots to ice skate, including the beautiful Nestlenook Farm. They also offer sleigh rides and snowshoeing if it’s been too long since you’ve laced up your skates. You can also skate for free in Schouler Park, near downtown.  

Shopping & Dining in Downtown North Conway

If you’re looking for ways to spend your time that don’t involve frigid outdoor temperatures, or if you simply need to warm up and grab a bite to eat, you have plenty of options in downtown North Conway. Some local favorites include The Muddy Moose, Delaney’s Hole in the Wall, May Kelly’s Cottage, and Barley & Salt Tap House and Kitchen. There are also plenty of outlets and cute shops and boutiques worth checking out, including Zeb’s General Store, and of course, the 5 and 10 Cent Store.

Winter in North Conway is unlike anything else, and after you’ve explored the area’s many attractions and are craving a cozy spot at a warm hearth, The Buttonwood Inn has you covered!
