Clark's Bears

110 Daniel Webster Highway (Route 3) Lincoln, NH, 03251 Phone: 603-745-8913

Still a must-see stop for fun-seeking travelers

Ninety years ago, Clark’s Bears began when Ed & Florence Clark invited travelers to tour their sled-dog ranch. It’s been a must-see stop ever since, now famous not only for its trained bear show but also its steam railroad, antique Americana and Segway rides, Yandong's Chinese Circus and Merlin's Mystical Mansion. Kids love the water blaster boats, Old Man rock-climbing wall and Tuttle's laser shooting gallery. Enjoy a burger at the Whistle Stop, a slice of pizza and Pullman's or an ice cream sundae at the Peppermint Saloon. Tickets include all rides, all shows, all day.

Everyone has a jolly time on the rides, activities at popular Santa’s Village

For generations, in the winter and in the summer, families have been coming to Santa’s Village, and if you are planning your first visit, you will see why right away. The holiday spirit is everywhere, from the rides (Reindeer Carousel, Little Elf Flying School, Yule Log Flume, Skyway Sleigh, Jingle Bell Express) to the shops (Jolly Lolly Candy Store, Sugar n’ Spice Bake Shop where you can decorate your own gingerbread man). Even the water park gets into the act, with the fun Ho Ho H20 attraction: lots of splashes, slides, climbs and buckets of water. And there are three, three-story water slides. Lots of options for eating, from snacks to full meals, and you can rent a private cabana or small “suite.”
