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.

We had an incredible experience renting an RV through Outdoorsy for race week in New Hampshire. As first-time RVers, we were a bit nervous, but our hosts Jason and his wife made everything smooth and stress-free from the very beginning. They were extremely communicative, quick to respond, and professional throughout the entire process.

Ryan and I were in communication more than a month before I rented the camper. I loved the way it looked and how affordable it was for us, so I wanted to show interest in it, and he helped by reserving the weekend I wanted it for us, which was a great gesture. Before we got the camper, he allowed me to go to his house to verify that my truck was able to support camper, which was great because we were able to check out the camper beforehand and make sure that my truck would be able to tow it. I was nervous before taking it out because I've never towed a camper before, however, he was very assuring and extremely helpful with helping me hook and unhook it, and was quick to text me whenever I needed anything while my family and I camped at the NASCAR race in NH. The anti-sway bars really helped keep it steady on the road, and it felt great to tow around. I'm glad that he was our host, because he's exactly the kind of host that you'd be happy that you rented from!

I rented Mike's RV for 11 days and the trip was uneventful and enjoyable. The vehicle was easy to drive and got good mileage. We did not experience any issues with any of the systems and found the stove and generator very easy to use. Pick up instructions were clear and when we did have questions during the trip, Mike quickly responded to them. The pickup location just outside the city was very convenient.
