Staying in Wolfeboro

Wolfeboro sits on the shore of Lake Winnipesaukee, and the listings here sit close to that water and to the centre of town: addresses along N Main St, Center Street and Mill Street, with a few set further out on Mt Major Hwy, Middleton Rd and Sargent's Pond Road. Several are within a short walk of the town's shops and the lakefront, and most name a beach nearby or a private beach among their facilities.

That shape suits different travellers. The Wolfeboro Inn, with 502 reviews and a guest rating of 4.0, is the established inn option, with a 24 hour front desk, business center, banquet space and free parking. The cottages and vacation homes appeal to families and groups: many have kitchens or kitchenettes, cots, high chairs and family rooms. Couples looking for a quieter base can pick the lakeside homes, while anyone wanting to be in the middle of town is best served by the Center Street addresses.
