Motorcycles are everywhere - so are boats! Please inspect your boat BEFORE launching it into our lakes. We cannot afford to lose the battle against invasive species.

Every week all summer long, a surveillance boat and diver make the rounds on New Hampshire's Suncook Lake in Belknap County.

Started the day with an umbrella! But my Clients and I had to refuel at the Yum Yum Shop Hard decision on what sweet treat to get! Coffee and flower gardens were perfect after the rain. I got a raspberry filled cookie. The lemon filled was also a no-brainer. Enjoyed by all! Do you have a favorite?

Timing your move in the Lakes Region isn’t just about the property, it’s about knowing when the right buyers are looking. 🌅

Showings here move with the rhythm of the tourism calendar. Late spring through summer, out-of-state visitors fill the area, and interest in lakefront and second homes peaks as vacationers mix property tours with trips to the water. Fall brings another wave when foliage views draw buyers who want to experience the best of the region, though the window is a bit shorter. 🍁

Meanwhile, locals take advantage of quieter months, late fall, winter, and early spring, making it easier to tour without crowds. This means sellers can target peak exposure by listing just before the vacation surge, or connect with serious year-round buyers when things settle down. 🏡

Every season offers its own advantage, whether you’re aiming for the buzz of summer visitors or the steady attention of locals. It’s all about matching your timing to your ideal buyer.

Do you prefer house hunting when the region is buzzing, or during the calmer off-season? Let me know which feels right for you!

Early arrivals set the tone for Laconia Motorcycle Week before the main rally shifts into high gear. 🏍️

June 12 in Laconia was all about the buildup, campgrounds open at the Speedway, vendors prep along Lakeside Avenue, and the first wave of riders rolls in to stake out their spots. The city is in a lively transition: while signature rides, street events, and races are still ahead, you’ll notice growing activity, the start of vendor setups, and the energy that comes from an influx of early visitors. It’s a unique moment when you can enjoy some elbow room, get your bearings, and soak up the anticipation. Now Bike Week begins!

For anyone planning to be in town during these dates, think of it as your chance to explore the quieter side of Bike Week before the official start. Early check-ins at lakeside hotels, casual meetups at local spots, and scouting the best places to catch the action, all possible before the full crowds arrive. 🌅

Have you ever arrived in Laconia ahead of the main rally dates? Share your favorite pre-event rituals or must-do spots in the comments!
