Escape the Heat at Owl's Nest Resort: Racquet Sports, Golf, and More in the White Mountains

Escape the summer heat and humidity to the White Mountains of New Hampshire, where the Owl's Nest Resort offers a refreshing retreat with pleasant summer conditions. The resort boasts an award-winning playground of racquet sports, championship golf, fine dining, and outdoor adventures.

At the heart of the resort is a world-class racquet-sports center, the only one in the country to feature tennis, pickleball, and platform tennis in one location. The 25 courts buzz with activity, hosting clinics, lessons, and tournaments. The eight red-clay tennis courts, sourced from Vermont quarries, provide a "feathery" playing surface that is less demanding on the body.

The pickleball facility, with 13 courts, has been rated No. 2 in the world by Tennis Resorts Online. The tennis and pickleball programs run from May through October, while platform tennis on four heated courts takes over from October through April.

Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the 18-hole course redesigned by Jack Nicklaus, offering breathtaking views and classic Nicklaus doglegs. The resort also owns another 18-hole course that will unveil a fresh design later this year.

For relaxation, Owl's Nest offers an Olympic-size pool, a 25-person Jacuzzi, and yoga classes by the lake. Panorama Six82, the resort's restaurant, is hailed as the No. 2 restaurant in the White Mountains. Three more restaurants are set to open this year, including Hooks for seafood, Slice pizzeria, and Butch's New York-style deli.

Accommodation options include family-friendly homes with one to four bedrooms and hotel rooms, half of which are oversized lakeside units with balconies.
