About This Home

As of July 2017

Great island retreat located near Hole In The Wall, a no wake area on Lake Winnipesaukee. The chalet consists of an open dining/living area with floor to ceiling brick fireplace with hearth. Lots of natural woodwork throughout. There is also a 16' x 20' storage building, with a garage door, for storing all the water toys. Sitting close to the lake, this property as 140' of waterfront with an 8' x 50' dock. The extra long dock offers easy, shallow swimming access, yet deep water docking, too! A quiet area with good views, sun and calm waters. Cow Island is one of the largest non-bridged islands on the lake and has great walking trails for exploring the island interior.
