From the sellers of Maple Leaf Motel at 150 West Main Street in Littleton:
Twenty years ago we lived in Lake Placid, NY .
We liked it a lot, but had grown weary of working for others. Circumstances offered us the opportunity to make a drastic lifestyle move and become our own bosses. The big question was, of course, what to do. We rather quickly decided to explore the lodging or marina sectors of hospitality.
Our criteria was relatively simple:
- We wanted something that we could operate with little or no additional staff.

10 Great Things About Bretton Woods, NH
Michele Penner from our Bretton Woods office shares with our readers some of the great things about Bretton Woods, New Hampshire.
1. Skiing
With 464 acres of downhill skiing and riding, Bretton Woods is New Hampshire's largest ski area. Sixty-two trails, 35 glades, 3 terrain parks, 10 lifts, and 92% of trails with snowmaking capabilities. Bretton Woods consistently ranks #1 by Ski Magazine in numerous categories. For Nordic skiers there are 100 kilometers of fantastic terrain—both in the open fields and through the woods—95 of which are track and skate groomed.2. Golfing
Did you know Bretton Woods has two championship golf courses? The Mount Washington 18-hole course celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2015—it was designed by Donald Ross in 1915. This challenging course offers the incredible scenic backdrop of both namesakes—the hotel and the mountain! The 9-hole Mount Pleasant course now includes 6-holes with junior tees and kid-friendly pin placements so the whole family can get out and enjoy the game.
3. The Omni Mount Washington Hotel
The 200-room Omni Mount Washington Hotel is one of the few remaining grand hotels in New Hampshire. Commissioned to be built by Joseph Stickney, a wealthy coal broker, the hotel took 250 Italian artisans two years to complete. There have been extensive renovations over the past 24 years on this 115-year-old grand old lady, and her surroundings making it a top "bucket list" destination! Tours are available. If you don't know about the history of the hotel, I strongly suggest taking one!4. The Omni Mount Washington Resort Spa
The Omni Mt. Washington Resort Spa offers 25,000 square feet of full-on pampering! This luxury spa offers facial treatments, body treatments, and full salon treatments for both men and women, as well as a co-ed lounge, private ladies and men's lounges where you can relax both before and after treatments. But wait, there's more: luxurious shower facilities, locker rooms, steam rooms, saunas, and an outdoor hot tub. An unbelievable way to spend a day or just a few hours.14

As one story ends another begins. David & Nancy Ernsberger have owned and operated the popular gift shop "The Nest" for five years.

Her plans for the building have been a closely guarded secret, b... 7

Your New Hampshire Spring Festival Guide
"When fields are fresh and streams are leaping". . . that's spring in New Hampshire according to the poet Claude McKay. It's the time of year when mud and maple sugaring season give way to festivals, crafts fairs, strawberryfests, and dreams of flip-flops (although the carefree summer days at Weirs Beach are still a ways off). The Lakes Region is home to over 270 lakes, and roughly 85 percent of the area is wooded. Outdoor recreation is what New Hampshire's Lakes Region is all about, and there's no better way to celebrate the outdoors than by festival-hopping across the Granite Stat...
