From the Boston area take either 93 or 95 north.

From 95 North

Follow 95 through the NH tolls to the exit for Rt. 16 - Spaulding Turnpike North. Sign says, "White Mountains / Lakes Region" Exit left. Follow through two tolls to exit 15 which is Rt 11 West. Follow to Alton Traffic Circle. You’ll see a McDonalds.

From 93 North

Follow 93 through the Hookset tolls to exit 15 in Concord which is the exit for Routes 393, 4 and 202. Follow to the Epsom Traffic Circle. (Just down the hill past Wendy’s). Go around the rotary and follow Rt. 28 north all the way to the Alton Traffic Circle. You’ll see a McDonalds there.

From Alton Traffic Circle

Follow Route 11 West through Alton Village and down to the Bay. You can’t miss it.

Directions: From Alton Bay

In front of J.P. China's Restaurant (at the Busy Corner Store - Amilynne's) go straight onto Rand Hill Road from Rt. 11. Do NOT bear right on Rt. 11. Follow Rand Hill Road .07 of a mile to Alton Mountain Road. Hang a left. Follow up to the top of the mountain. Enjoy the views of Lake Winnipesauke off to your right as you ascend. As the road proceeds down the other side of the mountain you encounter a "T" in the road which is called the Cornergate. (You have followed Alton Mt. Road for 2 miles at this point). Alton Mountain Road goes to your right. Proceed until your first left which you’ll find after .09 miles from the Cornergate. Take a left onto Alton Shores Road.
