Summer in New Hampshire’s Lakes Region is all about getting out on the water, soaking in breathtaking scenery, and creating unforgettable memories with family and friends. For the 2026 season, the EKAL Activity Center at Mill Falls is once again your gateway to adventure on Lake Winnipesaukee, offering everything from scenic island cruises and private charters to kayak rentals and lakeside experiences.

One of the best ways to experience Lake Winnipesaukee is from the water, and EKAL offers several ways to do just that. Their private pontoon charters provide a personalized lake experience, allowing guests to customize their day on the water. Whether you're interested in island hopping, sightseeing, celebrating a special occasion, or simply relaxing with family and friends, a captained charter offers flexibility and comfort while showcasing the beauty of New Hampshire’s largest lake.
For those looking for a more laid-back excursion, EKAL’s island cruises are a must-do during the 2026 season. These scenic cruises take guests through the iconic islands of Lake Winnipesaukee while highlighting the area’s history, natural beauty, waterfront homes, and local landmarks. With stunning mountain views, wildlife sightings, and endless photo opportunities, an island cruise is a perfect activity for visitors of all ages.
Couples and small groups can also enjoy the charm of the Miss Meredith, a vintage, wooden 1931 Chris-Craft that offers a unique and elegant way to explore the lake. Ideal for anniversaries, proposals, photography sessions, or simply enjoying a quieter outing, this classic boat experience adds a touch of nostalgia to any Lakes Region getaway.
For travelers who prefer a more active adventure, kayak rentals remain one of the most popular experiences at EKAL. Launching directly from the waterfront, guests can paddle through Meredith Bay and explore the scenic shoreline while enjoying panoramic views of Lake Winnipesaukee. Whether you're an experienced paddler or trying kayaking for the first time, EKAL makes it easy to get out on the water with equipment and safety gear included.
Kayaking offers a unique perspective of the lake that larger boats simply can't provide. Paddle into quiet coves, discover hidden corners of the shoreline, and enjoy peaceful moments surrounded by New Hampshire's natural beauty. Early morning paddles often reward visitors with calm waters and spectacular reflections, while sunset outings provide unforgettable views as the day comes to a close.
Families, couples, and solo travelers alike appreciate the flexibility of kayak rentals, making them one of the best ways to experience Lake Winnipesaukee during the summer season. With easy access directly from Mill Falls, it's an activity that fits seamlessly into any vacation itinerary.
