Those people who are lucky enough to visit the Lakes Region in New Hampshire should be certain to rent a canoe while they're there. For the uninitiated, this may seem like a given. After all, it's called the Lakes Region. There is so much for visitors to do—or to not do if that's their choice—that getting on the water is not always something people remember to fit in. Being on the water is a great way to enjoy the beautiful scenery, no matter what lake you're on. It's even better when you launch your craft from your own waterfront home on Lake Winnipesaukee or the Lakes Region. Whether you want to fish, or just get out in the water, and take a deep breath and drift, spending a few hours in a canoe is a great way to spend a day—or two. Fortunately, there are several great canoe rentals in the Lake Winnipesaukee area for visitors to choose from: 1. Wild Meadow Canoe and Kayak is located on Lake Winnipesaukee in Center Harbor, New Hampshire. Wild Meadow Canoe and Kayak has, of course, the two kinds of boats in its name, but also paddle boards and rowing shells. If you want to purchase, this is also the place for you as they also have inventory for sale. 2. Anchor Marine Boat Rentals is also on Lake Winnipesaukee, which is the sixth largest natural lake in the United States. Anchor Marine boat rentals also have a variety of boat types for people to rent. For return visitors, Anchor Marine has moved and is now located on Union Avenue in Laconia. The new facility has more and easier parking. 3. EKAL Activity Center is another established business on  Lake Winnipesaukee, where visitors can rent everything from paddle boards to, of course canoes. Affordable and fun water activities are available here for people looking to have a great view of nature.
