One for the Ages

A family retreat on New Hampshire’s Lake Winnipesaukee is designed to stand the test of time – and a lot of sandy little feet

For a Maryland couple and their six children, vacations on Lake Winnipesaukee have always revolved around simple pleasures: swimming and fishing, driving the boat to town for ice cream, gathering around the campfire. When they first began visiting Wolfeboro, New Hampshire, some thirty years ago, “we really loved the charm and character, like a little Norman Rockwell town,” says the matriarch of the family. “The kids had a new sense of freedom here, learning how to do all kinds of water activities.”

Lake Winnipesaukee Overlook was featured in New England Home, September-October 2019 issue.
