The AMC does a lot of good things, what with their White Mountain trails as well as their Three Mile Island Camps on Lake Winnipesaukee.

Just to put things in perspective, here's a little comparision in property taxes that may have you realizing that your $20,000.Meredith property tax is a super bargain basement deal for Three Mile Island.

With 43 wooded acres, 47 cabins, a main house, a boat house, and an unknown (maybe 8000'wf?) length of island waterfront, Three Mile Island, a non-profit organization, pays about $20,000/year to Meredith in property tax.

With a total of one acre and 220' of waterfront, myself and my three neighbors occupy four 1/4 acre lots with 55' of waterfront each. The combined total in property tax for this one acre is about $35,000/year.

That is correct. Three mile island has 43 acres and pays 20k. We four separate owners have one acre total, and we pay 35k.

Just something to think about if maybe you have been considering that your 20k tax bill was a bit high.
