Colorful Cheshire County

This region of southwestern New Hampshire is also known as the Monadnock Region and Cheshire County. Whatever you call it, you have to appreciate its colors at this time of year. Although heavy rain and wind took down several leaves earlier this week, this area is still filled with an array of beautiful autumn colors.

Below are some photos of this region, some compiled from facebook postings, with credit given to the photographers.

We took this photo of this beautiful maple on Belmont Street in Keene

We're fairly booked at the Bridges Inn at Whitcomb House for October. Most of our availability at this point is during the week. If you can't make it to New Hampshire during October, we think this region is beautiful at most any time of the year.
