White River Junction is a compact, walkable Upper Valley riverfront village with a surprisingly lively arts and food scene, easy rail and highway access, and abundant nearby outdoor recreation — comfortable to call home for multi‑week therapy contracts.
Within about 10 miles are Lebanon (home to Dartmouth‑Hitchcock Medical Center) and Hanover (Dartmouth College) for extra dining, culture and services, so you’re close to bigger‑city amenities without living in one.
