Wow! Thank you for all the replies. I didn't get much back when I originally posted. I've been here in Manchester since 3/25 for another 2 week stint of work. I did get out and explore, but didn't visit Weare.
I was all set to stay at Mile-Away, as it was an easy drive from Manchester, and seemed OK. It was under a lot of snow, so I couldn't evaluate it as well as I'd have liked.
Upon reflection, I think I'll follow the suggestions and give Cold Springs a call tomorrow. It'll cost me a fair chunk more money. But I think we are going to bring the family out sooner than we originally thought, so "things to do" for the kids is now more important than before (my original criteria was clean bathrooms, and cable tv......) 
Thanks again for all the suggestions.

Grimmwit,
Welcome to New Hampshire, hope you like it. I am just a bit south of you. I think we have turned the corner to spring finally. Should start to warm up soon.

Here is another option Hidden Valley. I don't know much about it since I live in the area and have not camped there. It would only be about a 15min ride to Manchester from there.

After a lot of consideration, and digesting the replies here, I have made reservations at Cold Springs. I appreciate all the suggestions and comments.

Hope it all works out for you, do you have a site #? We should be up parts of most weekends in the spring working around the baseball games etc.

I've been assigned site W30. I was told it was the last site available. If you drive by it, take a look and let me know what it looks like.
I'm guesstimating that I'll be out there on or near May 8th.
Thanks again for all the feedback and suggestions from everyone - very much appreciated!!

W30 was always a seasonal site, people obviously left. It is at the top of the hill away the action of the pools and front gate. It will be quiet up there, nice neighbors of those that I know. My SIL is around the corner from you.

You made a good decision! Actually my golf cart broke down right in front of your site last Fri night-you may have seen me and my daughter pushing the stupid thing, but it was pretty dark...darn corosion on the battery terms so it wasn't getting the full juice on plug in!
Anyway, I am glad you chg'd your mind from Mile Away, nice enough place but CS has so much more for your kiddos. I may stop by and say hi NOT A STALKER!

Hey Len and Jane, what site are you at? We have golf cart problems our 1st week as well. Did not get up this past weekend, hope this one coming up.
grimmwit, how is the site, hope all is working out, looked like a lot of changes in that area of the campground on opening weekend. Some friends just moved in up there somewhere.
Anyway, hope all is good.

We are at the bottom of Suicide Hill, a cardinal 5th wheel. You didn't miss too much this past weekend, other than gorgeous weather and free mother's day pancakes But hardly anyone was there for seasonals. I was surprised at how many transients were there. Even saw a couple of tents!
A long timer has pulled out of the W's up in grimmwit's area and I was amazed at how different it looks up there, they even added a site up in that 4 lot corner.
