Above this four-season retreat is an oversized, two-level garage – perfect for parking your vehicles – cars, ATVs and even boats! Great East Lake (once known as Newichawannock) is the largest fresh-water lake in York County and spreads into New Hampshire. The name Newichawannock is a term from the Abenaki Indians, meaning ''river with many waterfalls''. The lake level is controlled by a stone dam, which empties into a canal, flowing into nearby Horn Pond. This canal was constructed around the time of the Civil War and the sides of the canal are built of rough split stone and laid up without mortar! Known for outstanding water quality, residents or day visitors enjoy fishing, boating, water skiing and swimming in the summer months and ice fishing, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling in the winter months.
Conveniently located within a mile from the New Hampshire border and tax-free shopping, this lake home is a comfortable drive to ski areas in the White Mountains, about an hour to Portsmouth, NH or Portland, ME & 2 hours from Boston. ENJOY Maine life as it should be.
