Like this place: http://www.beangroup.com/homes/NH/Mo...ho/2134338024/

Is it open to the public or just the people in that community?
The beach at Far Echo is for the members. It's technically not a public beach, but you would be sharing with other members of the community. The particular house in the link is not directly on the water. "This paradise [beach] is a very short walk down the quaint 'deer path' from this home."

There is a very nice public beach in Moultonborough that is for the use of residents of the town.

I have lakefront property and our beach area is private. We abut a "right of way" that allows access to the water for other houses on our road, but there is no beach. There are lots of ways for folks to enjoy Lake Winnipesaukee without having lakefront property.
