Bartlett Inn NH Blueberries Bumper Crop July 2011

Blueberries are ripe!  2011 is a banner crop of blueberries.  They are much larger and growing in clumps versus other years.  Good Spring rain, followed by sun and a touch of luck from Mother Nature has give us a good crop to share with our guests this summer.  The Bartlett Inn, surrounded by the White Mountain National Forest of New Hampshire, has 2 and a half acres covered with wild blueberry bushes that are ripe for picking!  The blueberries are a beautiful deep purple and are ready for pie, pancakes are just by themselves!  Come stay at the Bartlett Inn in one of our family friendly cottages and enjoy free blueberry picking before or after Storyland in Glen New Hampshire!!  We picked a pound today and will enjoy the pie later!! With some ice cream of course.

Cut Your Own Christmas Tree for $5 bucks in New Hampshire!

ChristmasTree Bartlett Inn NH

Fir Balsam Christmas Tree Cut your own Tree Bartlett Inn NH

That is correct.  You can cut your own Christmas Tree for $5 bucks in the White Mountain National Forest  of New Hampshire!  The Bartlett Inn has a tradition of cutting our own Christmas Tree each holiday season.  Usually we find a nice tree on our own property but this year we just could not find one that had a good shape so Innkeeper Nick and his family went to the Ranger Station on the Kancamagus Highway in Conway, NH and paid just $5 to cut our own tree.  This is a great deal on Christmas trees that can cost from $20 – $120 dollars. The Bartlett Inn prefers to cut a less traditional tree: It goes by many a name; Charlie Brown Tree, Stick Tree, Pencil Tree or the real name Fir Balsam.  It is fragrant and grows with larger spaces between branches than trees grown on a tree farm.  It is not as full and bushy as a farm grown tree but it has benefits as the space between branches allows ornaments to be seen and dangle freely and it has an open airy feel.  We made a point to make and buy very light ornaments as the branches are not very thick or stiff.

Start a new family tradition, come to stay at the Bartlett Inn in New Hampshire and cut your own Christmas Tree.  Bring your own twine to tie the tree down on the car and rules for cutting are that you can use hand tools only..no chain saws so bring your own little saw and have fun!  We did.  For more information on staying in NEW Hampshire and cutting your own Christmas tree call 1 800 292 2353.

Mt Washington Auto Road New Hampshire

Mt Washington Views NH

Mt Washington Views with Bartlett Innkeepers in NH Foliage NH

What better than a sunny September day to take The Bartlett Inn’s Summer Employee (Ozgur from Turkey!) on a sight seeing day and where better than for a ride up the Mt Washington Auto Road in Pinkham Notch NH.  We like the sign that says not a good road to drive if you have a fear of heights at the beginning of the road!  A little frightened we put the truck into 1st gear and went for it!  What can we say…spectacular views at every turn and the top too! We enjoyed lunch at the canteen and the museum in the bottom of the observatory.  One perk of driving up is that you are not limited by the time of the returning coach or cog train.  There are many hikes that can be done from the top too!  On teh way back to the Bartlett Inn there is nice short hike to Glen Ellis Falls off Route 16 .
