Sleigh ride at the Farm by the River
My wife and I took a lovely kid-FREE late afternoon private sleighride from the nice people at the Farm by the River in North Conway, NH on one sunny but snow-covered late afternoon this past winter.
Krystal was our guide and the beautiful horses that pulled our sleigh were named Jim and Bob (how appropriate). LOL!
Our package was $99 which included a 45 minute sleighride with chocolates and nice bottle of Champagne. A warm blanket is provide as well. There was also a large group and another couple in a private open sled but they were appropriately spaced. The ride starts right at the farm and includes a 30 to 45 minute ride through the woods. Bring a camera as there is great view of Mt. Cranmore, Catherdral Ledge and the trail goes right up the side of the Saco River. You may even see tracks of live animals.
I'm not sure if I would recommend the inn for lodging itself but I definately recommend the Victorian sleigh rides. May look to go horse back riding there in the summer.
The Farm is located right on West Side Road.
Krystal was a great hostess and she gave us some insight about the area and the farm (including the story of the 3 legged wolf that resides on property).
