Lake Tarleton, lake in New Hampshire, United States
Lake Tarleton is a large, clear body of water in Grafton County, New Hampshire, surrounded by forests and hills. The lake is managed by a 48-acre state park featuring an unguarded swimming beach and picnic areas for visitors.
The water body was named after an early settler who established himself in this region. Over time, the lake and surrounding area became a popular recreational destination for residents and visitors.
The lake takes its name from an early settler in the region. Today it serves as a gathering place where visitors swim, fish, and enjoy outdoor recreation in a natural setting.
The lake can be accessed from two main points: the state park at the northern end with beach and picnic areas, and a boat launch ramp at the southern end for motorized boats. Pets are not allowed in the park, and visitors should remove all trash and check boats for plants and mud to prevent invasive species.
The lake remains free of invasive plant species, which is uncommon among local waters where many others struggle with unwanted aquatic weeds. This clean water quality is maintained through careful boat inspection practices before launching.
