Where is Cedar Cove in Alton? A buddy of mine is looking at property there. he ask me where it is and I can't find it on the map.

Cedar Cove is east of light #74 and northeast of Plum Island. It is a no-rafting area.

I didn't think there would be a cove inside a cove! I thought that whole inlet is Robert's Cove.

Didn't used to be called "Cedar Cove". When I was a kid, I went to Camp DeWitt which was located there...don't think the little cove had a name back then. It is, however, where I learned to sail and canoe. Sigh.

The cove got the name when the association was developed. The beach there is for "Ceder Cove Association Members Only".

When there is only one of something in our experience we don't need a name, it's just "the cove".

The earth has only one moon and one sun, so we forget their names and just call them the moon and the sun. Some people can't tell you their names although they have hear them many times.

Just to amplify the correct answer given by Bizer....

From the New Hampshire Code of Administrative Rules.....

Saf-C 407.03 Prohibited Areas...

A Google using "cedar cove winnipesaukee" will also return a number of pages listing property sales in the Cedar cove area....

Our sun and moon don't have any names in English. Sol and Luna are often used but they are the Latin terms.

The 10th planet doesn't have a name in any language.
