I think the best time on the lake is at night (around 2 a.m.) when there's no boat traffic and almost all the lights along the shore are off. The stars are so brilliant. It seems as if I'm sitting in a huge planetarium. I love it. I took the little people in my life (6 of them between the ages of 7-12) out this past summer and they were in awe.

October is great too. Everything is so crisp and fresh. Going for a brisk boat ride (clothed in layers in case it gets warm) to Centre Harbor (from Bear Island) and then walking to what is now Canoe for an early dinner will always hold great memories for me. I can't remember the name. It was the restaurant that opened right after it was the little banana boat ice cream place.

The Ossippee mountains are spectacular at that time of year.
