Lakefront Monday highlights different lakes in New Hampshire. This page is sponsored by Lady of the Lake Realty in Meredith NH. If you want information on a lake e-mail us for lake profile. We will try and have a different lake every Monday

NH Cyanobacteria / Blue Green Algae blooms

alt tag

Cyanobacteria / Blue Green Algae blooms have been more numerous this year than in the past.  

This year the state was able to provide the public timely data because the state is using a drone with a multispectral camera. The camera can see wavelengths beyond what human eyes can perceive to determine the concentration of cyanobacteria in the lake. The other benefit of the drone is they can view in some cases the entire lake rather than just looking at one beach to take a water sample.

Lady of the Lake Realty keeps track of Cyanobacteria updates throughout the summer to keep our clients informed on which lakes have repeated blooms. This is one of the benefits of working with an agency that specializes in waterfront properties when making a purchase in the NH Lakes Region.    

If you are going to make a waterfront investment - work with an agency that has knowledge of all the lakes and will use the resources available to help you select the property that is best for you.

 Squam Lake History NH 

Squam Lake is the second largest lake in the lakes region of New Hampshire. It is located in the towns of Ashland, Center Harbor, Holderness, Moultonborough, and Sandwich, The lake is approximately 14 miles long and 5 miles wide, with a surface area of 41 square miles, 6791 acres Squam Lake is a popular destination for fishing, bird watching, boating, and camping. Unlike other lakes in the region, the shoreline is sparsely populated often boating along you don't even see homes, but you are sure to see Loons.  

The lake was first inhabited by Native Americans. The Abenaki people called the lake "Keeseenunknipee," which means "the goose lake in the highlands." The first European to see the lake was Samuel de Champlain in 1603. The white settlers that followed shortened the name to "Casumpa", "Kusumpy" and/or "Kesumpe" around 1779. In the early 19th century, the lake was given another Abenaki name, Asquam, which means "water". 

In the 18th century, Squam Lake became a popular destination for logging. The lake was also used as a transportation route for fur traders. In the 19th century, Squam Lake became a popular tourist destination. Hotels, cottages, and other businesses were built along the shores of the lake. The lake was also a popular destination for steamboats, which provided transportation and recreation for visitors.

Today Squam Lake continues to be a popular destination. The lake is a popular destination for hiking, boating, swimming, and fishing,  The lake is home to a variety of businesses, including hotels, restaurants, and shops. Our family always gets a seasons pass to Squam Lakes Science Center where you will find wildlife in its natural habitat. The film on Golden Pond put the lake on the map. 

  • Home to over 200 islands.
  • The lake is fed by over 30 rivers and streams and drains into the Squam River.
  • You will find a variety of fish, including salmon, trout, and bass.
  • Surrounding mountains include Squam Mountain Range, the Sandwich Range, and Red Hill ( my favorite hike )

NH Lakes that have gas docks!

NH lakes with gas pumps

Lakefront gas dock questions come up often when searching for NH Waterfront Real Estate 

These are the lakes in NH I found with gas docks.  Balch  - Merrymeeting - Newfound - Northwood - Ossipee -  Squam - Sunapee - Winnipesaukee - Winnisquam  NH lakes with gas pumps

A gas dock is very convenient for filling your boat but most lakes do not have that convenience. Lugging 5-gallon cans down to the shoreline is hard work and the chances of spilling gas into the lake are high.  For about $30 you can purchase a gas transfer battery-operated hand pump. Easy to use, set it close to fill point on the boat and your set to get started. Most have an auto turn-off when filled.  I have one and love it. A ton easier than trailering your boat to the gas station. 

Lady of the Lake Realty can help you find a waterfront home on one of the lakes with gas pumps or any of the quality lakes or ponds in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire
