We flew into the Manchester NH airport bypassing Boston and drove about two hours North on I-93 to the Adair Country Inn. Nestled in a quiet grove of beauty, we checked in for four nights to tour White Mountain leafs in mid-October 2017. We had a quiet, sunny, comfortable room, good for sleeping at the left side of the Inn with its own entrance. The staff is pleasant, proud of the history of the Inn.
The Inn is a great spot for discovering the beauty of the White Mountains in the autumn season. Dinner is served except on Monday and Tuesday nights. The food is good with an upscale tick. In addition, a good wine list is available. On the off nights, we drove ten minutes to Littleton, NH which is a bigger little town with several restaurants, shops, banks, etc.
During our four-night stay, we drove some 300 miles total on good roads without much traffic touring Franconia Notch, the Kancamagus Highway—known as New England's most superb scenic drive, Mount Washington, and the historic five star Mt. Washington Resort Hotel. In between are the most beautiful fall foliage views you can hope to see in a lifetime.
We plan to return to the Adair Country Inn next year in mid-October.
