Roberts Cove/Plum Island
 

We anchored here on Sunday to swim. Saw a dock on Plum Island with a tent off the eastern side. Whats the story there? Does someone own the island?

I assume every island on the lake is owned by somebody.

Yes
 

Yes, private property. Also there is a floating loon nest just off the south side of the island (left side looking out toward the main part of the lake).

Yes, saw a couple adult loons and baby loon chick near the nest Sunday.

Is it ok to step on the island as there is no signage prohibiting it?

Looks like maybe it was purchased by Camp Brookwoods in 2000?

I reached out to the camp. They say the island is posted as No Trespassing.

Assume island property is privately owned
 

When in doubt, it's good to assume an island property is privately owned and not open to uninvited visitors. Just like the mainland. I believe - and someone please correct me if this is wrong - but there are a few island properties owned by entities and allow public or member access.

But there isn't much public access so again, assume it's private and you would be trespassing if you go on shore.

In New Hampshire, you are only trespassing if it is posted.
