Rich in history, the Lakes Region is overflowing with inspiration for artists of all kinds

Nestled within the storied White Mountains, the New Hampshire Lakes Region has served as the inspiration for countless artists who paint pictures with words, cameras or canvases. Home to no fewer than 273 bodies of water and just a quick, scenic drive from Boston, the region is perfect for destination and travel blogs, regional event calendars, fishing publications, family-friendly vacation guides and much more. The scenery is spectacular, the attractions are unmissable, and the recreational opportunities are limitless. We invite you to come and see for yourself.
