To do or not to do...that is the question!:
This home can offer a laid back lakeside vacation of days filled kayaking, swimming, reading in a hammock or sitting by a crackling fire as the sun set. At the same time you are a boat or car ride away from all kinds of activities. There is historic Wolfeboro as well as Meredith Bay which both offer ample public boat docking to allow for a meal and shopping or antiquing in either areas. Both areas abound with local events such as fairs, musical events, and antique boat races. In early September the antique steamship parade passes right past this property, with additional daily sightings of these vintage ships as the enjoy the local waters for their annual week long gathering on Lake Winnepesaukee. Continue on your boat or car ride to the historic Weirs Beach and enjoy all the fun and honky tonk of bumper cars, a penny arcade , fortune tellers, and your fill of pizza, cotton candy and more. Cruise on the historic Mt. Washington or ride the scenic railroad to take in even more scenes
For the Nature Lover:
Kayak or canoe early in the morning or just before sunset and you will share the lake with the beauty and haunting sounds of the loons. They even have their own nature center with walking trails and gift shop right in Moultonborough. The hiking in the area is rich and able to accommodate all levels of hiker. In particular the nearby Rattlesnake trail offers beautiful panoramic views of Squam and Lake Winnipesaukee. The lakeside porch offers views of the famous 'Castle in the Clouds.' This wonderful tourist attraction offers a rich history of how a man went from rags to riches to rags again. The Castle offers walking trails, horseback riding and tours of the castle with pre-tour lectures by the local historical society. The winter months are filled with area ski mobiling, snow shoeing, cross country and down hill skiing all within minutes of this home, and even more skiing awaits within and hours drive. Warm weather and winter ice fishing on site and small game hunting nearby.
For those who like to eat!:
In addition to having all you need to create the gourmet meals of your choice (which is easy with several area local grocers who cater to discerning palates), there are a multitude of restaurants for both family and adult dining, and all of which offer their own take on what makes New Hampshire and New England dining special.
