There are lots of associations around the lake and in Laconia. Make sure you understand the rules. Many are not so friendly with folks who have pets and or 'toys'. Some associations are a 'basketcase' because of financial situations, lack of inforcements, disgruntle owners etc. If you have a buyer's agent working for you, they usually look into these things otherwise don't trust your seller's agent, they are trying to sell!

I live at Wildwood on Winnisquam. For what you get the condo fees are very reasonable as there are no swimming pool or community building to maintain. There is a beautiful association beach with possible mooring. No day dock. The association is not so friendly for 'toys'. RVs, boats, etc cannot be stored or park on the premises. The association is pet friendly. It is not a 55+ community but most of the owners are.

Southdown is up the road from me. There are several associations, so it is wise that you look into them. I know one of them is in the verge of collapse, and others have problems!

Good Luck in your search!
