Discover Great East Lake RV rentals for memorable road trips
Great East Lake straddles the Maine-New Hampshire border, curving across like a comma. The lake is the headwater of Salmon Falls River, which passes by several towns along the state borders several times before merging with Piscataqua River, which eventually meanders into Portsmouth, NH. The first settlers-mostly trappers and an odd farmer-made their way into central New Hampshire in the mid-1600s. By the 1700s, there were several sawmills along Salmon Falls River, including one where the town of Wakefield now is.

Getting Outdoors
Tall firs crowd the shores, casting shade onto the coves and inlets that fish enjoy. The small-but-mighty lake encompasses around 1,700 acres. Within these tea-stained water, which is fairly clear, several species of fish can be observed swimming about in their endless pursuit of food. Anglers can expect to catch lake and rainbow trout, smallmouth and largemouth bass, white perch, American eel, chain pickerel, and many more. Though most of the shore is privately owned, the owners tend to be laid back and will give permission freely for bank-side fishing. Launch a small-craft boat or kayak and fish from one of the two boat ramps. Black bears, although shy, are notorious for stealing unattended catches off the hook. Close to the heart of Maine’s moose country, they too are frequent visitors to Great East Lake.
Camping at Great East Lake
Nearly every person with the soul of an adventurer has the same dream: to wake up surrounded by nature. Even this far north, mosquitoes can be an issue, as are tents that reveal leaks in rainstorms. The solution is to rent an RV. Camping at Great East Lake isn’t possible because there are no public campgrounds. However, there are several options in the area. Lake Ivanhoe Campground, just minutes away in East Wakefield, NH, is a family-friendly facility with a playground, sports field, and planned activities. Campers can choose from full, partial, or no hookups, and pets are allowed.
Exploring the Area
On occasion, it becomes necessary to come up for air and interact with a fellow human. The small towns and communities scattered across central New Hampshire have endless attractions and interesting shops to explore, and getting to that next town is a snap in a rental motorhome. Many local communities host annual country fairs and festivals, which are a terrific way to find unique artists and crafters. Wolfeboro, NH, is well-known for its interesting festivals, which includes a Festival of Trees.

Everything about this trip was perfect. Both the comfort and reliability of the van exceeded our expectations. The hosts were incredibly easy to deal with. We wouldn’t hesitate to refer them to friends.

Ben was a great and reasonable host, who was very communicative and responsive throughout my trip. The RV sustained some damage during the trip, and Ben was productive to work with through repairs, as well. I would recommend Ben's RV to anyone looking to explore the country via motorhome.
