I am fortunate enough to be spending the next week at a home on Rattlesnake Island, and I have some questions.

It is my understanding that a portion of the island is owned by the Lakes Region Conservation Trust, and while there is no public access(docking) to the island, if you are on the island legitimately, you may hike on the LRCT land.

Is this correct? I want to make sure I don't end up trespassing.

I seem to have read somewhere that the LRCT land is mostly in the center of the island, combined with some undeveloped lots that go all the way down to the water. Are these lots well marked?

Is there an available map showing what parts of the island are LRCT as well as trails and other points of interest?

Also, I wanted to send some honeymoon postcards (I sound like such a tourist!) with a 'Lake Winnipesaukee' postmark on them- is there some place that I can drop off mail for the mail boat?

Lastly, is the supermarket in Center Harbor the closest place to get groceries?

Thanks in advance

Rob
