Sometimes a lake is so much more
than a body of water...it’s a member of
the family.

Which of these iconic NE spots do you recognize!? We recently spent a long weekend in New England and had the BEST time! We were too early for fall colors, but it was still a great fall hype trip. We hit the perfect balance of city and nature too! [📌SAVE for your future New England Trip!] ✈️ We flew into Boston, and then stayed about 30 min north of the airport. My favorite trip highlights include: 🧙🏼‍♀️Visiting Salem, Mass- location of the infamous witch trials in 1692. Halloween is HUGE here! 🎃 -Witch Trials Memorial & Old Burying Point Cemetery -House of the Seven Gables -Film locations from the classic Hocus Pocus movie (Max & Dani’s House, Allison’s house, Town Hall. Etc.) -Jaho Coffee & Tea for an Apple Cider Donut Latte -The oldest candy company in America (Ye Olde Pepper Companie) -Salem Maritime National Historic Site -Any of the Salem Museums! -Black Craft Cult (an old bank converted into a creepy store) -Bit Bar ( an arcade bar!) -The Derby Restaurant & Bar -East Regiment Beer Co. -Notch Brewery ⛰️Hiking in New Hampshire’s White Mountains & Lakes Region! -Basin Cascade Trail (Franconia Notch State Park) -Artists Bluff Loop Trail (Franconia Notch State Park) -West Rattlesnake Mountain (overlooking Squam Lake) 👉🏼Who are you heading to New England with!?

Destroyed our prop and did damage to the lower unit in the MIDDLE of the lake. NOT marked by any means. Huge BOULDERS in water 2ft. Beautiful lake, horrible boulders with no markings. Someone should really do something about this and mark it.

You'll be hard pressed to find a more beautiful spot than what Squam lake has to offer. Due to it's shear size, you're afforded incredible views of the white Mountains just to the North, and the boat traffic is much lighter here than at Winnipesaukee or Squam. Part of that is definitely due to how dangerous this lake is to run if you don't know it!! Boulder likes are everywhere, you do not want to run a boat on this lake without a map that shows where all of the marker buoys are. Know your markers, and keep it slow when within 150' of...

Very peaceful and beautiful area. I love hiking and canoeing here in the summer and have never had a bad experience at this lake. The lake itself is well-maintained and very clean, as are the roadways to and from. It's a very nice getaway when you need to unplug or unwind, and is generally just a very tranquil and beautiful area. I always look forward to coming here and am never...
