One of the things that makes the 2025 NETtra conference special is that it's not in one of the "typical" conference cities! However, this does mean that there are a few additional things to consider in terms of getting to the location. Public transportation is very limited in NH, as are taxis and rideshare services. It is important to plan in advance!
Conference Main Location:
Church Landing at Mill Falls on the Lake Resort
281 Daniel Webster Hwy, Meredith, NH 03253
Please note that while the conference location is the Church Landing property, accommodations may be in the resort's other buildings within a walking distance of Church Landing. A resort map is available here: https://www.millfalls.com/about-us/property-map/

Driving:
Meredith, NH is located in central NH, not far from I-93. Approximate driving times:
Flying:
The recommended airport is Manchester, NH (MHT). Our hosts at UNH will be offering a complimentary group airport shuttle (limited spaces available, reservations required) for peak arrival and departure times. You also may want to rent a vehicle to have more freedom to explore the great destinations and attractions of New Hampshire. Please note that there is no regularly scheduled bus/public transit service between MHT and Meredith.
Boston Logan Airport (BOS) is another option offering a wide variety of flights. From BOS, Concord Coach Lines (see below) offers twice a day service to Meredith (connection required in Concord, NH). It is a .8 mile walk (est. 15-20 minutes) from the bus stop location to Church Landing, mostly a scenic walk along the lake, but not recommended if you have a lot of luggage. Please note that taxi and rideshare options in Meredith are very limited.
Bus:
Concord Coach Lines provides twice a day service from Boston South Station (for bus and train connections), Boston Logan Airport, and Northern NH (North Conway).
Manchester Airport Shuttle:
We will be offering complimentary, shared van transportation on 10/7 and 10/10 between MHT and Mill Falls Resort. Space is limited. More information is available here.
Hired shuttle:
Lakes Region Airport Shuttle provides airport and local service. Reservations must be made in advance.
Rideshare:
Uber and Lyft are available in New Hampshire, but drivers can be very limited and you may have to wait much longer than usual. Please note that rideshare may not always be a reliable option, especially outside of cities.

Add some days on to your trip!
New Hampshire is famously beautiful during its peak fall foliage season in early to mid October. It's a compact state that offers a lot - lakes, alpine peaks, beaches, quaint rural communities, historic cities, and more. Check out www.visitnh.gov to start planning your trip! Or reach out to your friends at University of New Hampshire to get insider tips ;)
If you plan to stay through the weekend (Oct. 11-12), there are a number of fairs and fall festivals happening across the state that weekend. One classic rural NH event to check out is the Sandwich Fair, a 20-minute drive from Meredith: www.thesandwichfair.com.
