Boat ramps are scattered widely among the many fresh-water inland lakes and rivers, like Lake Winnipesaukee and the Squam lakes, for which New Hampshire is justly famous among people who love water sports. Most locations for fishing have access to boat ramps and boat launches. Need lodging? Lake resorts in New Hampshire cover the spectrum from elite hideaways for dedicated anglers to large properties that accommodate big families and offer lots of things to do, including water sports.
