Where to Look for Vacation Rentals In New Hampshire

New Hampshire is bordered by Massachusetts in the south, Vermont in the West, Main and the Atlantic Ocean in the east, and Quebec, Canada in the north. Concord is the state capital, but Manchester is the largest city.

New Hampshire has gone down in the history books as the first post-colonial sovereign American nation, made such by its secession from Great Britain in January 1776. It was also one of the original thirteen states that established the United States of America. It was also the first state to have its own state constitution. This rich history is acknowledged by the state's license plates, which declare, “Live Free or Die.”
New Hampshire was the breeding ground of many well-known Americans, such as the founding father Nicholas Golman, President Franklin Pierce, Senator Daniel Webster, Revolutionary War hero John Stark, editor Horace Greeley, Christian Science founder Mary Baker Eddy, renowned poet Robert Frost, astronaut Alan Shepard, and the controversial author Dan Brown.
