Within a short drive, you can stroll through Sunapee Harbor and explore local shops, galleries, and events. It’s easy to spend a few hours browsing, dining, or enjoying lakeside activities before returning to your relaxing stay.
Local Bites Just Minutes Away
Grab a sandwich from a nearby country store, stop for fresh baked goods, or enjoy lunch at one of the area’s favorite spots. Our Shorts feature some of these local gems—all within easy reach of our properties.
Historic Gardens and Nature Trails
A visit to The Fells offers a perfect afternoon outing. Located just a short drive from all of our stays, this historic estate features beautiful gardens and walking trails with views of Lake Sunapee and Mount Sunapee.

Our YouTube Shorts were made to give you a glimpse of what it’s really like here—unscripted, authentic, and always close to the best of Sunapee.
