Summer time Ubers/taxis?

goldwere · 05-20-2024, 10:45 AM

I'm staying around Gunstock in July with a group of friends. I'm curious if Uber/lyft is reliable in the summer time around that area and around the Weirs Beach area, or what people would typically recommend for getting to and from the lake, bars, etc. Thanks!

Uber is between very unreliable and non existent. Wouldn’t plan on using them. There are a few Taxi companies but for events you need to make arrangements well in advance. Same for the limo services.

I def would not count on Uber!

There are a couple of services that run people in and out of the Weirs... Mini Winni Party Bus and Bar Hoppah. Both can be found on FB!

Welcome to thew Forum. Hope you have a great stay here. No Uber or Lyft in my experience. Siri found Laconia Taxi for me to get to Manchester ("do you mind if I run a couple of errands on the way?") where I could get Uber/Lyft.

I have used Mr C’s taxi out of Laconia I believe on a few occasions for local area rides. Be advised that if their drivers are already committed to airport rides etc, etc, you will be out of luck… https://www.mrcstaxi.com/

For Limo service, ASL in Gilford is top notch!
