Frost and family lived here, 1915 - ?. It is now a museum and poetry workshop.
Inside, a collection of signed first editions of Frost’s works and other memorabilia from his stay. Outside, a nature trail with plaques displaying poems written during the poet’s Franconia years.
The Frost Place features summer conferences and school programs, and each summer an emerging poet is awarded a fellowship with a cash stipend and an invitation to live and write in Frost’s former home for the months of July and August.
NOTE: This is NOT the Frost summer home which made national news in late 2007 when it was vandalized during an under-age drinking party. That was in Ripton, Vermont.
