ABOUT US

We visited friends in 2003 and fell in love with the area. Newfound is one of the cleanest lakes in the world, and the fourth largest lake in New Hampshire. Pure, clean water, amazing views, state parks, waterfalls, hiking trails and the joys of Nature's Playground make visiting Coppertoppe Inn and Retreat a time away from the crush of modern life but with all the comforts of home. For more information about the Newfound Lake region visit NewFoundLake.org/.
