Lebanon, NH
Upper Valley living at its best
Lebanon is the commercial center of New Hampshire's Upper Valley, a region defined by Dartmouth College, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, and the beautiful Connecticut River valley. The city offers excellent dining, shopping, and outdoor recreation, with skiing at Killington and Okemo just across the river in Vermont.
Coast to Creek Rentals provides long-term housing options for Upper Valley professionals, medical residents, and families. Our Lebanon-area properties offer convenient access to major employers while keeping you close to the region's incredible natural beauty.
Lebanon's downtown has undergone a renaissance in recent years, with new restaurants, a renovated opera house, and a growing arts scene complementing the established retail at Centerra Marketplace. The city sits at the crossroads of Interstates 89 and 91, making it an easy hub for exploring both New Hampshire and Vermont.
The Upper Valley's four-season appeal is a major draw. Summer brings swimming and paddling on Mascoma Lake and the Connecticut River, fall turns the hillsides into a spectacular foliage display, winter offers world-class skiing at multiple resorts within an hour, and spring brings maple sugaring season and the return of farmers' markets.
Why Lebanon?
- Near Dartmouth College and DHMC
- Easy access to Vermont skiing
- Connecticut River trail system
- Growing restaurant and brewery scene
