Abstract: Excerpts from the report Summary: Recreation enterprises in New England need relatively large capital outlays to provide the kind, quality, and quantity of services most in demand. Operators require a high level of management skill to be successful. These are the major findings of this study of selected rural recreation enterprises in New England. In September 1962, data for calendar year 1961 were obtained from 32 rural recreation enterprise operators in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, and New Hampshire. The study was designed to obtain estimates of investments, costs, and returns for various types of activities, and to determine managerial and operational problems.
