The Little-Known Swimming Hole In New Hampshire That Locals Want To Keep Secret 

There are quite a few places to cool off when the weather gets warm, but not all of them are created equal! Of course, the small coast offers some fantastic beaches. But, they're frequently crowded and parking can be a challenge. Instead, make your way to a secret swimming hole in New Hampshire. Lonesome Lake is an idyllic place to relax and take a refreshing dip in the water. While plenty of locals have found this beautiful spot, you might find that it’s less crowded than more well-known lakes and swimming spots.

This lake is so picturesque, you’ll want to stay all day. From the deep blue water to the lush green surroundings, there’s nothing but tranquility for miles around you when you’re here.

The mountains in the distance are a memorable view as well. Be sure you bring your camera for this trip, as there are many views you won't want to forget.

The water is so inviting that you’ll want to jump right in and feel like a part of the beautiful scenery.

Depending on the weather, you might get to see a truly striking sight. The fog comes over the mountaintops and gives the whole scene a mystical, magical feel. There's nothing quite as peaceful as watching the mist roll in over tranquil water.

You can even go hiking here in the winter and look out over the frozen lake’s pristine icy surface. It will look like a whole new place at this time of year.

The trails are beautiful during any season, but make sure you’re prepared for the icy ground if you come in the cold months of the year.

Lonesome Lake may be aptly named, as there usually aren’t too many people crowding its shores. Depending on when you go, you and your family might even feel like the only ones in the world for a while. Enjoy it no matter the temperature, and let us know how your experience was!
