Province Lake Association

Province Lake Association Province Lake Association is a non-profit organization set up to help protect/preserve Province Lake in Carroll County, New Hampshire. It was created in 1972.

ABOUT THE LAKE
Province Lake is located in southern Carroll County, New Hampshire. The lake is approximately 1008 acres and has a maximum depth of approximately 17 feet so there are no coldwater fish species in the lake. Three towns border the lake: South Parsonsfield, Maine and Wakefield and Effingham, New Hampshire. As with many lakes in New Hampshire the shoreline is almost completely ringed wi

th cottages and there is an abundance of water craft on the lake. Although not as congested as Lake Winnipesaukee boat traffic is increasing yearly. It is amazing that the water quality is very good and there is NO infestation of milfoil or other exotics.

Hi All,

The watershed survey update report is now available on our website at the link below. This is the survey that the ground work was done in the spring of 2025 led by our partner AWWA. It involved many PLA volunteers and several technical experts working as teams walking the watershed of Province Lake.

Letters have been sent to property owners who had erosion issues identified. It is strongly recommended by the PLA that those homeowners reach out to AWWA and have them come and do a site visit to specifically identify best management practices to implement on their property. There is no "requirement" to do this, but as we all know, the more sediment that enters the water, the more phosphorus we get and hence more cyanobacteria blooms. Please try to do your part to help.
