I posted this in the New Hampshire forum also but thought I would try here as well. We are going to be spending a few days in August in the White Mountains area, and I am trying to decide on a bed and breakfast to stay in. There are so many choices! I was originally looking in Jackson, but then I came across a couple that looked great in Bethlehem and Lisbon, which look like they are closer to the Franconia Notch side of things. Having never been there, I have no idea if one location is better than the other. We plan to visit Mt. Washington, do the Kancamagus drive, Franconia Notch, etc. Not really looking for outlet shopping so North Conway is not a draw.
The B%26amp;B%26#39;s I have narrowed it down to are Carter Notch Inn, Inn at Ellis River and Inn at Jackson in the Jackson area, and Bear Mountain Lodge and Bishop Farm Inn in the Bethlehem/Lisbon area.
Any advice is much appreciated!

Where to stay in White Mts - Jackson area or Bethlehem area?
I really don%26#39;t know either Inn but the Lisbon area will put you away from things. If it is in Bethlehem you are OK and Jackson is great.

Having lived in VT/NH all my life and visiting ';the Whites'; in all seasons I would opt for Jackson just because it is such a lovely town with great access to the Pinkham Notch area. You could do a long day loop from Jackson, along the Kancamagus, through Franconia Notch and back along route 2 through Gorham.
Jackson is lovely and has several options, but I find it a bit to touristy if I may! I love the Conway%26#39;s in small doses as well, but mostly in their sholder seasons.
Very nice place and a historic landmark in Bethlehem is the Angel in the Mtns, right on Main St., a totalrehab in the past couple years with an attention to detail for the buildings preservation. A gold course close by - May not be opened yet, but that just equals quite. The Rocks Xmas tree farm down the road a piece from there. I believe sometimes they host entertainment if memory serves me right?
From there Littleton is just around the corner, and while there you MUST vist ';Chutters candy store'; the longest candy counter - World record and everything. The kid in you will love it, bet you can%26#39;t go in empty handed and leave come back out the same way!
Some big box stores in Littleton, but far enough from Main St to not take away from it - Ya know!
Travel Well!
