Newfound Lake

by Jeanne Mulhern Hoflen, Kent G. Hoflen

Overview

Newfound Lake, often referred to as "New Hampshire's best kept secret," borders the towns of Bristol, Bridgewater, Hebron, and Alexandria and has been a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts and vacationers since the late 1880s. Charming cottages and inns formed around the lake to meet the needs of the growing tourism industry. In Newfound Lake, rare postcard images, primarily from the authors' private collection, transport the reader back to these special moments in time.
