Just a quick boat ride from the Rattlesnake Island Association dock in Glidden Cove, located in West Alton, brings you to your private pilings dock and a level gathering area at the water's edge. Outbuildings provide convenient storage for gear and utilities, while the waterfront offers endless opportunities for swimming, boating, or simply wading when the lake beckons. The panoramic views stretch from north to south across the Broads, showcasing the best of New Hampshire's most popular lake. A brief uphill walk leads you to a charming shed, complete with 200 amp electrical service, water, a refrigerator, cook top and a possible sleeping loft.

Rattlesnake Island is one of the lakes largest islands and offers hiking trails that traverse it, including routes to its highest peak with breathtaking views of the region. On the mainland, you'll find two association parking areas, a boat launch, and docks, ensuring seamless access to your slice of island paradise.
