As a lifetime resident of Berlin, NH I’ve shopped, dined and otherwise explored various attractions in and around North Conway all of my life. On the drive down I’ve passed the Nordic Village Resort a countless number of times. Last fall, the Minion pumpkins near the office had my daughter and I stopping for a few photographs but we had never really considered the resort for an overnight stay. Recently though, we decided to vacation in the Mt Washington Valley and as part of my review of the area for my blog lodging was arranged for us at Nordic Village.
We were immediately surprised by all that the resort offers, something you might never guess from driving by alone. The family focus at the resort is impressive with something for the kids to do any time of day, every single day regardless of weather and season.
Our kids enjoyed the pools (of which there are plenty) immensely while I was especially partial to the Nordic Falls area based on its evening beauty alone. The resort in fact was my husband’s favorite part of the entire stay. The nightly family activities are great and we enjoyed selfies with a clown and the next night met some interesting animals at a Wild Encounters show! Our two-bedroom townhouse was wonderful with plenty of room for our family – I enjoyed coffee on the balcony each morning, loved the well supplied kitchen and wished I had a jet tub at home given the lengths my children (who usually fight off soap and hot water) went to bargain for their turn in it.
The master suite was a loft with a private bath (and that lovely jet tub) and had a large comfy bed. If I had to nitpick the only thing I might have asked for was a larger, newer style television in that bedroom since my eyes have become well trained to the flat tv style. But really, there wasn’t a whole lot of time for tv anyway! The rooms were clean, as were the grounds and the staff was very friendly. We will be sure to recommend the resort to friends and family near and far and hope to have the opportunity to return many times ourselves!
If you’re planning on a vacation in the Mount Washington Valley we definitely recommend a stay at Nordic Village. Special packages are always available to save you money and ensure a great stay that goes the extra mile!
Thank you to the Mt. Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce for arranging our visit and to the Nordic Village Resort for hosting the ButeauFull Chaos clan!
