Under Canvas White Mountains
Quick Facts
Why Dalton & the Northern White Mountains
Dalton sits in the northern White Mountains along the Connecticut River, near the towns of Bretton Woods and Twin Mountain and within reach of the historic Mount Washington Cog Railway, an authentic coal-fired steam train that has climbed the highest peak in the Northeast for over 125 years. This corner of New Hampshire stays genuinely quiet compared to the busier Kancamagus Highway corridor further south.
Under Canvas White Mountains is a newer property set on an old farm above the Connecticut River, with genuinely stunning sunset views toward the Vermont hills and a real covered bridge just up the river.
