Merrymeeting Lake
Merrymeeting Lake is a 1,233-acre (4.99 km2)[1] water body located in Strafford County in eastern New Hampshire, United States, in the town of New Durham.The undeveloped areas are the western side of Sawtooth Cove, because the land is extremely steep there and difficult to build on, and the far eastern shore of the lake which is not easily accessible by road.During the 1990s, most of these structures were replaced by higher end summer homes, some worth millions of dollars.The Powder Mill Fish Hatchery is located at the base of the dam, and is fed by the overflow of the lake's water.The lake is classified as a cold- and warmwater fishery, with observed species including rainbow trout, landlocked salmon, lake trout, smallmouth bass, chain pickerel, and horned pout.
