Guys Weekend Extravaganza
The North Country is perfect for a weekend away in the North Woods of New Hampshire. Home to New England’s best snowmobiling, you can ride over 700 miles of perfectly groomed trails all the way to Maine, Vermont, or Quebec if you want. Rent a big rustic cabin at Partridge Cabins in Pittsburg for you and the boys. Open year-round, most of their cabins sleep two to four people and include a fully stocked kitchen, satellite TV, and a charcoal grill. What more could you ask for?
If you don’t have your own sleds then Lopstick has a special Ride and Stay Snowmobile Experience Package that includes two nights stay and a full day snowmobile rental. Spend one day cruising snowmobiles down the world-class trail system and the next out on the Connecticut Lakes ice fishing. Just walk outside your cabin door and catch lake trout, cusk, and brown trout on First Connecticut Lake.

After a long day in the cold, warm up with dinner and drinks at the Black Bear Tavern.
Of course, all that snowmobiling and fishing will work up a real appetite. No one wants to be hangry! Hop on your sled and ride up to the Black Bear Tavern in Colebrook for lunch. As Colebrook’s newest sports bar and restaurant, you’ll always find the big game on the TVs, a fully stocked bar with all your local favorites, and great food. If you’re in Colebrook, you can spend the night at the Colebrook Country Club or the Rivers Edge Inn. Both locally owned inns have direct access to nearby snowmobile trails.
Once you’re back in Pittsburg for the night, grab dinner and a cold beer at the Buck Rub Pub. This family run pub serves up delicious pub meals with friendly service that you’ll only find in the North Country. Plus, you can just ride your snowmobile there as the Pub is located directly on Snowmobile Trail #142.
