New Hampshire's Connecticut Lakes rentals, within Coos County, boast some of northern New England's prettiest scenery. The four lakes stretch from Pittsburg north to national forest, and the Canadian border at Quebec. With Maine just east and Daniel Webster Highway (Route 3) giving easy access to great vacations, this landscape has lovely forest, waters and the mountains for exploring.

There's lots of choice in accommodation throughout the region, with modern lakeshore villas, private and superbly designed, through inns, motels and Pittsburg NH lodging in the village. Choose your traditional, rustic cabin or go for a hotel. This area is far from overcrowded, meaning you'll always find a peaceful, quiet spot. The company might well be moose, not people.

The biggest and closest lake to Pittsburg, just five miles distant, is First Connecticut Lake, over five miles in length and almost three wide. The lakes aren't all that originally named, they move on to Second, Third and up to Fourth, the smallest and farthest north. But what they lack in originality name wise is made up for in their beautiful scenery.

25,000 acres of land is now protected, since 2002. The Connecticut Lake Estate Forest and Coleman State Park are specific regional parks too. The area is a haven for wildlife, largely undeveloped and unspoilt. Enjoy its natural beauty, far from the crowds.

In winter, the waters are transformed to form a snow-covered wonderland boasting snowmobile trails. In summer, the area is ideal for fishing and hiking. The best way to reach Fourth Lake and strike out to Canada is walking on a well-signed trail. Also nearby is the famous Appalachian Trail.

The Connecticut River's headwaters give great opportunities for fly fishing. Just waiting for you are abundant salmon plus trout. In these plentiful ponds, rivers and streams you'll find brook, brown, rainbow or lake trout, as well as landlocked salmon. There's superb ice fishing between January and April.

Many of the Connecticut Lakes rentals are situated in a wildlife lover's paradise. As well as the plentiful moose, you should be able to see coyotes, shy deer, turkeys in the wild and even bears as well. Amongst the most peaceful ways to enjoy this pristine water paradise is to head out by kayak with the family. The luxury mountain getaways NH has to offer are in a wilderness environment, clear of all high rises that offer a real escape from the pressures of modern city living.
