If you're in the mood for a turkey dinner, this is the spot. Not the liveliest of restaurants - and be ready for a nap after - but very good comfort food.

Great for a day trip, this is a 16-room mansion and 5,500-acre mountaintop estate in Moultonborough, opened seasonally. It overlooks Lake Winnipesaukee and the Ossipee Mountains from a rocky outcropping of Lee Mountain formerly known as "The Crow's Nest." Hike up or take a trolly and get a cute little lunch.

The Hobo Railroad is great for families of all ages. Travel through a naturally wooded setting along the twisting "Pemi" River at the foot of Franconia Notch. Voted "Best Ride for Kids" by New Hampshire Magazine, it's not just a train ride, it's a family-fun attraction with scheduled entertainment.
