Bridgewater, New Hampshire is a very rural New England town that runs along the eastern shore of Newfound Lake. Pretty laid back and quiet. You won't find any major stores or commercial enterprises. The town's largest employer is Bridgewater Power that employees just 12 people, you get the idea?
The summer population does increase considerably as visitors and summer residents return to their cottages and homes on the shores of Newfound Lake. Newfound is one of the cleanest lakes in the country and is has always been a favorite of boaters and vacationers in the Lakes Region.
