Lochmere blends river, lake, and village life along the Winnipesaukee River between Lake Winnisquam and the conveniences of Belmont and Tilton. Residents spend weekends launching kayaks, casting for salmon and bass, or strolling the Winnipesaukee River Trail. Nearby Ahern State Park offers quiet beaches, dog-friendly paths, and year-round access to Lake Winnisquam’s shoreline, while the protected habitat at the Lochmere Meadow Wildlife Management Area puts birding and snowshoeing practically in your backyard. Mountain bikers find lift-served terrain at Highland Mountain Bike Park, and shoppers have quick access to Tanger Outlets Tilton. Daily needs are simple, with U.S. 3 and NH 11 connecting you to Laconia and I-93.
Families appreciate strong public school options: one portion of the community is served by the Shaker Regional School District, and another by the Winnisquam Regional School District. Local libraries, youth sports, and seasonal festivals pair with county services based in Belknap County to round out small-town convenience without sacrificing the outdoorsy lifestyle.
Whether you’re seeking a year-round home near the water or a low-maintenance base for four-season adventures, Lochmere rewards you with an easygoing pace and outsized access to recreation and amenities. If you’re ready to buy or sell here, a trusted, local real estate agent can make the process smooth from first showing to closing—Agent Pronto can introduce you to the right pro.
