Sunapee Happenings

IT MAY SEEM QUIET...

Tho, at first glance, it may seem quiet in Sunapee Harbor under a blanket of snow… but on closer look there are Bob houses on the lake, construction at LSPA for new addition, The Anchorage Restaurant is OPEN! and just out of sight, Project Sunapee, the Historical Society & The Livery Boards are planning music & movies and museum exhibits for your summer enjoyment.
