Wolfeboro, New Hampshire is the perfect destination for those seeking a small town experience alongside the largest lake in New Hampshire, and has drawn both presidents (French president Nikolas Sarkozy) and presidential candidates (Mitt Romney) seeking serenity and summer fun. Here, writer Annie Graves shares a collection of images from Wolfeboro, New Hampshire as part Yankee Magazine‘s ongoing “Could You Live Here” series. Highlighting towns with a small population, but plenty to offer in terms of a simpler way of life, the series celebrates the best of New England’s community spirit. Please enjoy this slideshow of some of our favorites from Wolfeboro, New Hampshire. See the full feature “Wolfeboro | Could You Live Here?” in the July/August 2016 issue of Yankee Magazine.

  1. You have just ratcheted up our eagerness to get to Bald Peak as new members. Thanks for bringing Wolfeboro to life.

  2. I lived in the Lakes Region area back in the early 1970s. The really brave ones are those who can live there throughout the winters! You should ask the complete question, “Could you live here year-round?”

    1. A good and fair question, but if you’re comfortable traveling a little, No. Conway, Concord are only an hour, Rochester if you need big box stores in 35 min., and Portland for great Music, Food, Entertainment and the Atlantic is 1 1/2 hrs of an easy drive. All manageable in the ‘off season’!
