WELCOME
Granite Lake is a pristine, spring-fed lake located about 15 miles east of Keene, NH between the Towns of Nelson and Stoddard,
NH. The Granite Lake Association is a 50+ year-old nonprofit association comprised mostly of members who are homeowners with
lake frontage on, or with lake rights to, Granite Lake. While there is no public beach or swimming area, a boat launch is available.
Funding is obtained from membership dues and donations. For more information please see About Us.

It affects us all
It affects us all
The Stoddard Selectn recently voted to submit a special warrant to the May Town Meeting for an engineering study of its lake
roads, including Granite Lake.
GLA received a $50,000 cash grant from NH Department of Environmental Services early in 2008 for the preparation of a Granite Lake watershed study: first to identify and measure the primary sources of threats to lake water quality and then to prepare a management plan to reduce the impact from such sources. Sources to be examined include: logging; water runoff from roads and driveways; road ditches without treatment areas; culverts without adequate headwalls; septic systems in areas with high water tables; and fertilizer use on lawns and gardens. Choice of a qualified engineer consultant to quarterback source examinations and to prepare the plan should be completed in the next couple of months. The grant requires GLA to provide about $33,000 toward the effort: in the combination of about $18,000 in volunteer service hours and of about $15,000 cash of which about $10,000 already has been contributed by member donations in response to the plea made at the August 2007 special meeting.
