Outdoor

Lake Lowell State Park in Londonderry

This one can be hard to find(don’t listen to your GPS!) but it’s a great hike with a lot of variety. Lake views, forest trails, a revolutionary-war-era cemetery, and an abandoned summer camp, all at one park!

Find it off route 11, and don’t approach from Little Pond Road! Take Route 11 to Lowell Lake Road.

Dining

Valley View Saloon in West Dover

This secluded spot was a treat. We went on a Thursday and had the creekside outdoor section all to ourselves. Pictured: “Psycho Chicken” Sandwich with Coleslaw.
