"Quiet, and rural, Some Farming still done on the road, so be prepared for the early morning rooster call. Road is a major shortcut from NH Rte.153 to NH Rte. 16, so it is fairly well maintained even in winter. Town Library is less than a mile away, as is one of the towns churches. Even with the traffic this is a very quiet area, with plenty of wildlife to view. Moose, deer, fox and coyote to name a few. Don't look for city amenities here, but if you want to get up early in the morning without the sounds of horn and sirens, this is a good place for it. "
