Glen House offers ‘Root for the Earth’ package

GREEN’S GRANT — Thursday is Earth Day, and the message from The Glen House is it’s time to Root for the Earth. To celebrate Earth Day, not only this week but throughout the year, The Glen House is offering the Root for the Earth package that includes a one-night stay, two eco-friendly souvenir bottles, two earth-themed cocktails, a $20 donation to plant 20 trees in the White Mountain National Forest.The Glen House, which opened in 2018, was built with sustainability in mind. It is heated and cooled by a geothermal system and the building insulation is a combination of spray foam and rigid panels, which provides a very high “R” value. 

LED lighting is standard throughout the hotel and elevators are highly efficient Otis Gen2 models that regenerate energy when the car is moving down, returning energy to the building to use elsewhere. Public water fountains were designed for filling reusable water bottles and the hotel recycles all plastic, metal and paper. All outdoor lighting is dark sky compliant.
