Please check out their website in advance - you might need to make a reservation.
It has a hiking trail that goes around the entire lake. It took a little over an hour for us to go around. This is, by far, our favorite place nearby. There are two playgrounds for children, and places to grill. We highly recommend it!
Excerpts from the website:
“White Lake State Park offers some of the best swimming in the White Mountain region. The park lies along the shore of White Lake, which is an example of a typical glacial lake. During the Ice Age, glacial ice was buried beneath glacial till or debris. When the ice melted, a depression was created which gradually filled with water. Guests are welcome to enjoy a leisurely walk around the lake on a well-maintained foot path while looking for loons or signs of beaver activity, try their hand at the good trout fishing the lake provides or check out one of our types of boat rentals. The park offers a day-use area, group areas, and a campground with family campsites as well as youth group sites.
Make a Reservation
Book your trip to White Lake Beach: Visitors can make a reservation before arriving at the park as parking is limited (especially on nice weekends and holidays). Walk-in spaces are available for visitors on a first come/first-serve basis. Reservations can be made up to 30 days prior to arrival.”

They have maple cotton candy! But most importantly, if you don’t feel like waiting in a long line to get breakfast from Rosie’s, you can always drive here and get wonderful home made pastries, glazed donuts, and breakfast sandwiches (The Manly - roast beef, cheese and egg on a croissant.)
