Preserving the Unique History of Waterville Valley

Nestled in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, our town has experienced a rich history as a sanctuary for recreation for almost 200 years. From beginning as a logging encampment to its development into a prominent New England ski resort, we encourage you to check out our town’s unique and fascinating history!
