When I was thinking of buying a place in Long Bay, the fact that there was not clear, long-term access to the water stopped me from risking my money if the situation changed. That was discovered when I hired a local lawyer to review the potential purchase. It looks to me like the situation is about to change.

It also looks like a reasonable change, since the SDS owners will still have access to the water and still have the docks. My biggest concern was that, in time, access would be taken away and that the docks would go as well. SDS does not own the lake front in that area.

I believe the WOW trail along Winnipesaukee's shore is a reasonable usage of government owned land and allows the people that own the land, all of us, to use what we own for our enjoyment.
