Camp vs Town Over Lake Launch | Concord News

For 74 years, a summer camp and the town of Barrington, New Hampshire, have clashed over a boat launch on Ayers Lake — with the camp claiming private ownership and the town insisting public access is sacred. After the town built a gravel ramp to replace a worn path, the camp hired lawyers to fight the permit, even as boaters and campers keep using the lake. A $100,000 grant helped the town upgrade what they called their own public launch — but the camp argues it’s trespassing on private property. The U.S. Department of Agriculture weighed in, and now the legal battle rages on — all while campers swim and boaters glide, unaware the lake’s access could soon be decided in court.
