Lake Kanasatka


Lake Kanasatka is a lake located in Carroll County in the Lakes Region of central New Hampshire, United States, in the town of Moultonborough. Early maps refer to the lake as "Long Pond", presumably because of its long and narrow shape, "Quinebarge Pond" or "Lake Quinebarge". The lake is located one-half mile north of and nine vertical feet higher than Lake Winnipesaukee.
The lake is classified as a warmwater fishery and contains largemouth and smallmouth bass, chain pickerel, white perch, yellow perch, sunfish, and brown bullhead.
The lake has about 180 homes, including the Kilnwood Homeowners Association development, comprising 29 homes with a shared waterfront. The lake also is the location for Camp Quinebarge, a traditional, co-ed overnight camp founded in 1936 by Tom and Ruth Kenly of Short Hills–Millburn, New Jersey. The camp draws campers from around the world and lies on the northern shore of the lake. Lake Kanasatka is an oligotrophic lake, with high water clarity and scattered emergent plants.
