Visit Wolfeboro

When planning a visit to Brewster in Wolfeboro, your lodging options include inns, hotels, cottages, motels, and more. We are fortunate that there are several properties within walking distance of campus, and some just steps away! These include Pickering House Inn, The Suite Inn, The Cottages of Wolfeboro, Crescent Lake Inn, Windrifter Resort, The Wolfeboro Inn, and The Inn on Main. You may also like to consider the nearby and alumni-owned Lake Wentworth Inn—it’s always nice to support fellow Bobcats!  Don’t forget the other resort towns around Lake Winnipesaukee: Alton, Gilford, Meredith, Laconia, Lakeport, Center Harbor, Moultonborough, Melvin Village, and Tuftonboro. They are between 20 and 50 minutes away from Brewster, and the drive around the lake is quite pretty, especially in the fall. If you are seeking a chain hotel option, the small cities of Rochester and Dover are only 35 to 45 minutes from campus. Please make bookings as far in advance as possible, as Wolfeboro and the Lakes Region are popular tourist destinations in all seasons, and holiday weekends like Memorial Day are especially busy. To review all your local lodging options, we suggest visiting google.com/travel, the Wolfeboro Chamber of Commerce accommodations page, The Lakes Region Tourism Association’s “stay” page, AirBnB, and/or Vrbo.
