City and
Destination Information
The Town of Wolfeboro was settled in
1768 and is known as the oldest summer resort in the United States. Governor
John Wentworth, built a mansion here making this the first summer
resort in America. You can enjoy a variety of year-round events and activities
all surrounded by beautiful scenery. And, although thought of as primarily a
summer resort area, you'll be tempted to visit in any season. For additional
information, contact the Chamber of Commerce (http://wolfeboroonline.com)
or the town of Wolfeboro (http://www.wolfeboronh.us).

| The Wolfeboro Inn - Built in 1812 by the Rodgers family, The Wolfeboro Inn was a private residence for about 75 years when it became the Copper Kettle providing food and lodging to travelers. A three-story addition was added to the original building in 1987. The inn is filled with traditional New England decor with handmade quilts and antique furniture. As you enter the inn you are greeted by a lobby fireplace that provides warmth and a feeling of hospitality in this country inn that is filled with the style and amenities of a full service resort. Guests may choose between modern suites with balconies from which they can look out over the lake in the new building , or relax in the old-world charm of the beautifully restored and expanded rooms of the old Inn. The Inn's forty-four guest rooms are individually decorated and distinctively different. They range from rooms in the old inn, built in 1812, to modern, elegant, country-style rooms and spacious suites. In addition to standard amenities, all have air conditioning, wireless internet and cable TV. Some have refrigerators and private decks with views of Wolfeboro Bay.

Restaurants and Dining Suggestions
East of Suez - For over 30 years this family restaurant has been serving exotic cuisine from across Asia and the South Pacific. All of their dishes are prepared to order with fresh, local produce, specialty condiments and internationally imported ingredients. Although the menu is small, it is filled with time-honored favorites locals have grown to love over the years.
| The Music Garden - This interesting little tea room and gift shoppe is located right on Main Street at the docks. It is located in the same building as Jo Green's Restaurant. One of the more interesting aspects of the tea shoppe is that you can choose your own special bone china cup and then sit down and relax with a cup of tea and some scones. Be sure to join them for full tea at 4 p.m. where you can listen to live harp music as a part of your relaxing afternoon. Linda Griffin, the proprietress and harpist, has long been a friend of mine. She is an excellent harpist and I know you will enjoy her music, as well as getting acquainted with Linda. Be sure to visit the gift shoppe before you leave where you will find a selection of antiques, bath and body products, and "tea related" items such as teapots, clotted cream, jams, biscuits, cheese straws and several assorted teas. Open Wednesday through Friday from noon to 4 p.m., and from 5:30 to 7 p.m. On Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. (open only to full afternoon tea patrons from 1:30 to 3:00). For additional information,, phone 603.569.1889. |
