Quiet and country lake life near Concord
Just south of the popular lake and hiking destination city of Laconia, the small town of Belmont is a landing place of its own. “It’s rural, country living,” says Brenda Rowan, Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty who used to live in Belmont. “You feel like you’re secluded, but you’re really not because everything is only 15 minutes away." Belmont has its own sandy beach on the shore of Lake Winnisquam, and the larger Weirs Beach is a 10-mile drive north. The capital city, Concord, is about 20 miles south of town, offering residents a change of pace from the nature-filled lifestyle in Belmont. “I truly think it’s the best of both worlds,” Rowan says. “You can have your horse stables and chicken coops. You’re surrounded by lakes, but you can easily commute to the city.” The community is car-dependent with a walk score of 2 out of 100; U.S. Route 3, which runs along the western edge, connects motorists to Interstate 93.
Belmont sits close to both Lake Winnipesaukee and Lake Winnisquam.
Lake Winnisquam has many lakefront properties with private docks in Belmont.

Access to Weirs Beach on Lake Winnipesaukee
As part of the Lakes Region, Belmont sees plenty of seasonal visitors. More locally, there are resort and camping areas along Lake Winnisquam where out-of-town travelers rent cottages or park their RVs. The town’s northern neighbor, Laconia, hosts even more outdoor enthusiasts during the summer and fall. The city rests on Lake Winnipesaukee, the largest lake in the state. Weirs Beach, about 10 miles north of Belmont, is a popular lakeside attraction with sandy shores, a pier and a boardwalk. Another Lake Region staple, Laconia Motorcycle Week brings about 300,000 bikers to the area each year. Despite the revving of engines once a year, the Belmont community maintains an extremely quiet atmosphere, with a calm score of 99 out of 100.
Weirs Beach Pier is a favorite hotspot with many dining options near Belmont.

Homes with acreage and lakefront properties
Branching off Laconia Road and Province Road – the main two-lane thoroughfares through Belmont – are a variety of housing stock. It's common to see 1,500- to 2,000-square-foot Cape Cods and homes with ranch styles, cabin inspirations and colonial influences. Some might sit on a couple of acres, while others provide direct access to Winnisquam Lake, and price tags typically range from $350,000 to $650,000. “Some properties have chicken coops or horse stables, but they don’t last very long on the market,” Rowan says. "The acreage is great for people who want to get back to nature with their gardens and their animals.” In the Windsor Woods subdivision, there are larger 2,000- to 3,500-square-foot New Traditional constructions that were recently built and cost between $740,000 and $1.2 million. Lakefront properties with private docks can reach up to $2 million. Winnisquam Beach Resort, a seasonal gated community on the lake, has quaint 350- to 800-square-foot cottages for sale for around $140,000 to $250,000. “People set up their campers and RVs around the little cabins,” Rowan says. “The community closes for the winter and opens up again in April.” Near the center of town, Great Brook Village is a 55+ community with 1,000-square-foot manufactured homes that cost between $120,000 and $150,000.

Local eats on Laconia Road
While the majority of Belmont is full of winding backroads and green pastures, Laconia Road turns into a small Main Street area where a few local eateries, shops and the town's public schools are located. J&J’s Yolk & Co. is a neighborhood favorite for breakfast. Residents gather at The Tap Public House Inc. for burgers, brews and the occasional live music. For a post-dinner treat, Jordan’s Ice Creamery serves homemade cones, sundaes and shakes from the window. This town center area is also where residents go for worship, with options including Belmont Baptist Church and St. Joseph’s Catholic Church. On the north side of Belmont, Belknap Marketplace is a shopping plaza with clinics, salons and department stores like Shaw’s grocery and Big Lots. Less than a mile from there, the city of Laconia has more options for dining out and running errands. “New Hampshire has tax-free shopping,” Rowan says. “So, people come from all over to shop for big things like school clothes.”
J&J Yolk and Co is a Belmont town favorite with breakfast style food everyday.

Swimming on Lake Winnisquam at Leslie E. Roberts Beach
At the northern point of Belmont, the Leslie E. Roberts Beach and Recreation Area has a playground and sandy beach that kisses Lake Winnisquam, for Belmont resident use only. This park provides access to the 2-mile Lake Winnisquam Scenic Trail, a lakeside path through bits of woods, connecting to the 2.7-mile WOW Trail. Nearby, the public Lakeview Golf Club has a 9-hole golf course and membership options. Centrally located in downtown Belmont, Sargent Park offers tennis courts and a skate park. Also located in this Main Street area, Belmont Public Library provides reading, STEM and art programs for small children and book clubs for teens.

Individualized education in Shaker Regional schools
Students living in Belmont are part of the Shaker Regional School District, which serves just over 1,000 students and, therefore, offers smaller class sizes than the state average. Belmont Elementary is a kindergarten through fourth-grade school that’s graded a C from Niche. Students in fifth through eighth grade attend Belmont Middle School, which receives a C-plus grade. Belmont High School, also graded a C-plus from Niche, is known to have a great baseball program. And with slightly more than 350 students enrolled, the school maintains a tight-knit community with the ability to give more personalized attention to each student.
Students in Belmont later attend Belmont Middle School.

Fun at the Fairgrounds and Lakes Region Casino
Belmont residents look forward to the annual Belknap County Fair, held at the Fairgrounds in the northern area of town. This family-friendly 4-H Fair, held in the late summer, allows locals to showcase their farm animals and agricultural skills. The Belknap County Fairgrounds also hosts the Fall Festival, another community-wide annual event. On the southern side of town, Lakes Region Casino offers poker tables and slot machines 7 days a week.

Commuting to Concord on Route 106
U.S. Route 3 weaves along the west side of Belmont, but residents typically take Laconia Road – or New Hampshire Route 106 – to get to Concord or Laconia. There is one Concord Area Transit bus stop at the Belknap Marketplace, which is part of the route from Concord to Laconia. “A lot of people commute from Belmont to Concord and work at the hospital,” Rowan says, referring to Concord Hospital. The nearest airports are Manchester-Boston Regional, about 40 miles south, and Portsmouth International, about 50 miles east.
Route 3 run through NH is the highway used to get to different town including Belmont.
Belmont is the perfect combination of lake life and country farm life.
