I took a Play With Clay class with my partner before the pandemic. It was the first time in a while since I was behind a pottery wheel; the teacher was super friendly and excellent at instructing me. My favorite part about the studio is how many kinds of art you can do, and, more specifically, how beautiful, yet functional a lot of their paint-your-own-pottery items are. There's really something for everyone there. Can't wait to go and be inspired by Fired on the Mountain again!

Highly recommend the Meet the Winemaker tour. I am not a huge wine lover so just a tasting would not interest me. Really enjoyed learning about the wine making process. Nathan made sure everyone had fin and was very accommodating in answering questions.

My wife and I have visited Clark's multiple times over the past 10 years with our grandchildren and children. It is a must adventure if you are in the Lincoln, NH area for a few days. The admission fee and food costs are very reasonable for what they offer. At Clark's you can be entertained by a bear show, Chinese acrobats and various other things like riding a Segway, panning for precious rocks, a museum, water slide, shops, Merlin's house and other must see and do sites. You absolutely have to go on the White Mt. Central RR and experience the thrill of riding on a train and seeing Wolfman get agitated having visitors invade his territory. A day at Clark's is a wonderful time for everyone in the family you will have a great time. It is perfect family fun

VERY IMPORTANT (WE HAD TO RESCUE SOMEONE FROM DROWNING BECAUSE OF THIS): As mentioned in another review, the currents below the biggest shoot (pictured) are very dangerous if you don’t be smart about it. The “calm” areas actually suck you in and trap you. The safe way is to swim aggressively with the current forwards, making sure to pass the rocks and go into the inlet. If you try to go sideways, you will get stuck in the strong current and it will be very difficult for anyone to come help you get out and will also put THEM in danger. This particular shoot is definitely a 16+ strong swimmer type slide. I wouldn’t let kids go on it, especially unsupervised. The slide is very smooth - it’s just the water underneath. Bring a rope attached to something the person can grab for if they get stuck. Also grippy water shoes are a must - the rocks are super smooth. Many people have drowned here. There’s a memorial to one of the guys from 2017 right next to it to remind you to make good choices. ————————————————————— Okay, on to the actual review: Trail: very easy, not wheelchair accessible despite being flat due to leftover railroad tracks and a tiny part at the end which has roots and is narrow. Very easy but long enough that it feels like a hike Falls: see above for safety. You can feel like a lizard on the rocks :) I would skip this if you’re a family actually and continue to the next bullet. If you’re a group of adults, just make sure you are all very strong swimmers who are comfortable w swimming in a current. Bring water shoes. Obviously be smart about water level. Emerald pool: not sure if this is technically part of “Franconia falls” but like 200 feet further up along the trail is the most beautiful green pool you will ever see. The water is crystal clear, ice cold, and a bright green. Very little current and lots of good boulders to sit on. You can jump from the rocks safety - it’s about 13 feet at the deepest point, and there’s nothing at all below except pebbles (you can look with goggles to make sure). Just make sure to jump out VERY far away from the rocks, further than you’d think. Don’t do flips because the shape of the rocks means you’ll hit it on the way down.
