This 420 Ramble was so good, I forgot to spark up! (Yes, I got the date wrong—again. Does that make me look sloppy? Maybe. But for the record, this is my hobby. By day, I’m a successful real estate agent and a former attorney, which means I’m obsessively detail-oriented when it counts. I just don’t always have my “IN MY PRIME!” reading glasses handy when I go Live.)

Welcome to Know Where NH, where we’re exploring the hidden gems of the Granite State for all you folks out there dreaming of a life with a little more freedom! Today, we’re in Gilsum, New Hampshire—a tiny town of about 800 people just off Route 114, where history, nature, and that ‘Live Free or Die’ spirit come together in the most unexpected ways. Let’s dive in!
Right here is the Gilsum Stone Arch Bridge, built in the 1860s with nothing but granite and pure New Hampshire ingenuity. No mortar, just perfectly carved stones holding strong for over 150 years. This bridge is a symbol of Gilsum’s grit—a town that keeps things simple and sturdy, just like the state itself.
Gilsum’s the kind of place where you can breathe easy. No state income tax, no sales tax, and wide-open spaces along the Ashuelot River. It’s perfect for anyone who wants to live life on their terms—whether you’re kayaking, hiking, or just soaking in the quiet. And let me tell you, the views here in July? Pure magic.
Now, Gilsum’s got a quirky side too. Every June, this sleepy village turns into a rock hound’s paradise with the Gilsum Rock Swap and Mineral Show. People from all over come to trade gems, fossils, and minerals right here in town. It’s a little offbeat, a lot of fun, and totally New Hampshire—where folks embrace what makes them unique.
Living in Gilsum means low taxes, tight-knit community, and a chance to build your life the way you want. This piece of granite I’m holding? It’s not just a rock—it’s a reminder of New Hampshire’s foundation: strong, independent, and free. Whether you’re looking to start a homestead, escape the city, or just find a place to be yourself, Gilsum’s got that rugged charm that says, ‘Come live free.’
That’s Gilsum, New Hampshire—a small town with a big heart and a whole lot of freedom. Stick with Know Where NH as we keep uncovering the places that make the Granite State the best spot to live your life your way. See you on the next adventure!
