GET OUT & CAMP OUT

LAKE WINNIPESAUKEE

There are 273 lakes and ponds in the NH Lakes Region alone, ensuring plenty of fun throughout the seasons. One-sixteenth of New Hampshire is covered by water, much of it in the Lakes Region, so there’s plenty of opportunity for on-water fun in every season. The region’s largest lakes include Lake Winnipesaukee, with over 200 miles of shoreline and 274 habitable islands, Squam Lake, where On Golden Pond was filmed, Lake Winnisquam, Newfound Lake and Ossipee Lake. The smallest is Duncan Lake (114 acres), once a favorite fishing spot of Grover Cleveland (the 22nd and 24th President of the United States), who was a summer resident.

LAKE WINNIPESAUKEE is located in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire at the foothills of the White Mountains; it is the largest lake in the state at 72 square miles. Communities on Lake Winnipesaukee include Laconia, Lakeport, Weirs Beach, Gilford, Alton Bay, Wolfeboro, Moultonborough, Tuftonborough, Melvin Village, Center Harbor, and Meredith.

NEWFOUND LAKE, which some say is among the cleanest lakes in the world, is 4,106 acres in size and is one of the deepest lakes in New Hampshire (168 feet deep at one point, and at another, 183 feet deep). This pristine lake is approximately two and a half miles wide and seven miles in length, and is fed by 8 springs; it has 22 miles of shoreline. Newfound Lake is proud to say that it is Milfoil FREE!

SQUAM LAKE, the film site for On Golden Pond, is known as one of the most peaceful and pristine lakes in the country, and offers visitors plenty of opportunity to enjoy its natural beauty. Big and Little Squam lakes are naturally spring-fed and are connected by a channel in Holderness. Big Squam is six miles long, four miles wide and 98 feet deep. Little Squam is two miles long, one half mile wide and 84 feet deep.

SQUAM LAKE, CIRCA 1910

LAKE WINNISQUAM, at 4,264 acres, is the third largest lake located entirely in New Hampshire. The lake is primarily fed by the outlet from Lake Winnipesaukee, and Winnisquam’s outlet is the Winnipesaukee River, which flows into the Merrimack River. Winnisquam is 10.5 miles long by 1.5 miles wide; the communities on the lake include Sanbornton, Belmont, Laconia, Tilton and Meredith.

OSSIPEE LAKE is located in the northeastern portion of the Lakes LAKE WINNISQUAM Region and has 3,092 acres. It is a quiet lake known for its fishing and proximity to the Conway area.

LAKE SUNAPEE is a 4,100 acre lake surrounded by several beautiful State Parks in the shadow of Mount Sunapee and

Mount Kearsarge. There is a relaxed rural feel to the area, which is dotted with quaint smaller towns.

HIGHLAND LAKE is a 206 acre lake in Andover (Highland Lake OSSIPEE LAKE

Inn), known for its pristine drinking water purity, as well as being ideal for all watersports and fishing. The quaint village beach is accessible only to its residents and the Inn’s guests.

LAKE OPECHEE Opechee Bay is a 449 acre lake located in Laconia. It is located directly downstream from

Paugus Bay and Lake Winnipesaukee, and connects to Lake Winnisquam via a one-mile segment of the Winnipesaukee River that runs through the center of downtown Laconia. KEZAR LAKE in North Sutton has a surface area of 182 acres and 2.1 miles of shoreline; the lake is 26 feet deep. Kezar is one of the earliest developed lakes in the area, and there are many fine older homes around the shore that create a charming atmosphere. NORTHWOOD LAKE is a 653 acre lake located in the towns of Epsom, Northwood, and a small portion in Deerfield. The lake has an average depth of 12 feet and a maximum depth of 20 feet. The lake is mesotrophic and has some excellent bass fishing. On the lake you will find a marina with a gas dock. This is a great location for all boating in the summer, while in winter the lake is dotted with bob houses; snowmobiling is popular and ice car racing is a yearly event.

LAKE SUNAPEE LAKE SUNAPEE

Looking for a place to sit and relax for a while? You can’t beat a picnic table with a view of Lake Sunapee on a summer afternoon. Or if you’re feeling a bit more physical, a hike to the top of Mt. Major in Alton will reward you with some spectacular views of Lake Winnipesaukee and the surrounding area.
