Pine Island, Meredith NH
Pine Island in Meredith NH is 74 acres, the 12th largest non-bridged island on Lake Winnipesaukee.
Pine Island lies just to the east of Meredith Neck and with gorgeous views of the Ossipee Mountains to the North.
Solomon Lovejoy operated a ferry service out of what would become Shep Brown's shore house on Meredith Neck in the mid-1800s. As that time wooden sailing gundalows had been replaced by "horse boats" powered by two whose weight on a sloping treadmill caused the lags of water wheels on each side of the boat to move. In July 1988, a scuba diving team located a horse boat hull on the bottom of the channel near the buoys between Pine and Bear Islands. This horse boat most likely belonged to Mr. Lovejoy.
