Coffee first? Straight to the lake? A walk through your favorite town? Or the same spot you’ve been stopping at for years?

You’ve made the drive, the car’s still full, and the weekend (or week) is just beginning.

Where’s the very first place you stop when you arrive in the Lakes Region? Tell us in the comments!

Only in the Lakes Region (and Alaska!) ✈️🧊

Planes are officially taking off and landing on Lake Winnipesaukee! The Alton Bay Ice Runway opened earlier this month, transforming the "Big Lake" into a bustling airport.

Thanks to plow trucks clearing nearly 2 feet of snow and a solid 12-inch ice depth, we are welcoming aircraft back to the bay.

Whether you are a pilot or a spectator, this is a winter sight you don`t want to miss this winter.
