My nephews (8 & 10) & I signed up for the tubing trip this morning. When they dropped us off, we…read morewere told that it would be best if we walked out a ways to the second cove in order to get the best current out into the water. We did that, with our cooler raft in tow. However, i ended up pushing my nephews in their tubes for about a half mile (past the second cove) before we were able to get going. This took about an hour and a half. About 3/4 the way through our time on the water, we heard thunder. I realized they hadn't covered what to do in the case of bad weather in the briefing. So thankfully I was able to call the company from my tube & they advised us to get out of the water if we heard thunder & wait 15 min before getting back in. We heard thunder in and off for about 45 min so stayed out of the water on some rocks while we waited. I felt like we were bothering the company when they called & they didn't seem at all concerned, telling me it was a passing shower. After we returned to the water, we saw some lightening so I tried getting us over to shore. The water was getting choppy & we weren't going anywhere so I got out of my tube & pulled all of us to shore. We built a small shelter using our tubes & tried to stay dry but at this point, it was pouring. I called the company again & they said there was nothing they could do & couldn't come pick us up based on our location. I checked my GPS & we were .6 miles away from our stopping location. The company told us to start walking back along the shore. We did that and along the way my nephew slipped on the rocks because it was still pouring. Finally, when we made it back, we had to drag all the gear up the hill (which was mentioned during the briefing but we weren't expecting to do this in the pouring rain. When we got back, I expressed my disappointment that they'd send anyone out with conditions like that expected as I truly felt our lives were in danger. The woman said no one was blaming anyone and I corrected her. Yes, I blame the company for putting our lives in danger. She explained that they had no idea about the weather conditions and that this system just popped up out of nowhere. I can understand that but at no point did anyone offer to come & help us. They could have easily walked from where they were & helped us walk back. I would not recommend this company due to the lack of safety measures & how isolated we felt when conditions got bad.

Sofas on the lawn, a sea of broken down lawnmowers and a concrete block fire pit about the size of a small house, filled with remnants of said sofas and burnt beyond recognition metal & plastic. I wouldn't flinch if this was used for a mass human burning at one point. If you make it past the smell of Mustang cigarettes & formaldehyde , you will be greeted by a group of gentlemen right out of the Mad Max movies. All saddled around a lone campfire flanked by a few tarp-covered campers, a cloud of smoke above them of who knows what. These dudes are RTP. Ready. To. Party. Absolutely just a mish mash of Old Milwaukee chugging, old dudes ready to tell their life stories of past arrests and their Motorhead cover band (no joke). We actually used the kayaks for about 6 minutes in total before we were bbq'ing, drinking up a storm with these dudes. Just a friggin blast. A few other highlights I'd like to mention: -The restrooms were in the house up the stairs; not sure how the girls in our group got out alive and/or std free. -For about 2 hours there was a shotgun party across the street of nonstop gunfire; at one point showering down upon us into the trees as we played bocce ball. excellent. When it was time to leave, high fives and hugs all around from these dudes, like we've known them for years. So all in all, 5 stars across the board. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED as an afternoon hangout if you have a 12 pack, some friends and a willingness to hug some 50 year old dudes.

Mountain Pines Campground is a cute little campground. There are about 20 campsites and each…read morecampsite can fit about 2-3 tents. Each site also have a picnic table and fire pit. We stayed at campsites 18 and 19 and it was along the Baker River. They have free shower and toilet facilities, but only one shower and toilet per gender. They turn off their showers from 11pm to 7am so plan accordingly! There is also a water spout in the middle of the campground. WiFi is also available close to the check-in building. It's $10 per person, per night. Make sure to know your campsite number ahead of time. If you arrive late at night, they do not leave any notes or anything telling you where your campsite is. Also, ringing the bell does not help after hours. It's located near the side of the road so it can get annoying when cars drive past in the middle of the night. However, I don't mind staying here again. The folks here are nice. Campground is clean. It's also close to the Common Cafe and Tavern and the crags.

Most campsites are closer to the river and a little bit away from the road. But it is literally on 25 so it can be a bit noisy for traffic. There is an overflow/group camping site to the left when you come in which is good if you are with a group. The bathrooms are cool and kitschy. There is only one sink and shower in each. Two toilets in each. Plenty of places outside the bathroom to relax and wait if there is a line. Shower water is shut off between 11pm and 7am. There is a water tap in the center of the camping ring you can easily access. Not very sandy.

I've written 327 reviews and only five businesses had the lack of integrity, unprofessionalism, and ineptitude to "earn" a 1 star review. I do not take giving a one star lightly and provide plenty of opportunities for the business to correct a potential misunderstanding with lots of benefit of doubt before it's obvious "Oh, Dive Winnipesaukee doesn't give a crap about us as customers. This is intentional." Keep reading if you want the lengthy details. I'm not even going to get into the fact none of the employees wore a mask, that's almost an amusing "Oh well, diff'rnt folks diff'rnt strokes!" in the face of the entire experience. My husband called TWO DAYS ahead and made a reservation for 6 single kayaks and one double kayak for a group of 8 adults. We confirmed many times these were available for a half day morning, the employee said we could come in any time that morning, we said we'd try to arrive around 9:30am, and we gave our credit card information as well as our phone number. The total came out to around $254. 9:30am on the day of our reservation, as we were literally parking across the street from Dive Winnipesaukee, my husband gets a call from another employee who told us that they only had one single kayak available. We would have to make do with 3 double kayaks and a PADDLEBOARD instead. She said "I'll give you a discount for the miscommunication, I'll charge you the price of a single kayak for the double kayaks." Okay, not ideal to be told this at the last minute possible, especially since we've already put our credit card information down for our reservation. We decide to move past this and have a good time still. One front desk employee immediately tries to charge us for the original $254. I said "No, we are only getting three double kayaks and a paddleboard, plus we were told on the phone we'd be getting a discount because of the error." A woman came by (I think she is either the manager or owner) and said "I called Heath and told him everything." Heath is my husband and he's standing right next to me, he tries to chime in and she cuts him off and say "Let's get you out there and we'll sort this after." We agree and give them the benefit of believing they are an honest business and will sort this out. Their equipment is in bad condition. The three kayaks we got were completely different and in poor condition, it felt like they were purchased at yard sales. They're not sea kayaks, which they should've been because the lake had very strong currents and lots of boats. The worst part is they said they ran out of life vests and gave one of our friends the cheap kind you put on for a ferry (over the head, no straps to secure to body). My friend insisted this was not acceptable because 1. Kayak looked bad 2. The heavy wind and currents. Keep in mind they open at 9am, we showed up at 9:30am with a *reservation*. They didn't have 8 life vests?! After five minutes of my friend insisting, the guy went to look in their storage and found a real life vest. Why did it have to be such an ordeal, customer safety should've been number one and they should have had 8 life vests ready. Dive Winnipesaukee's business motto: Should've, would've, could've, don't give a crap so didn't. My husband went to the bathroom before we set out and the manager/owner/boss came out immediately with the receipt and asked us to pay. So much for waiting until after like she said. The price on the new bill was over $200, she didn't give us the discount that she promised ten minutes ago over the phone. I said "You didn't give us a discount, you said you'd charge us a single kayak price for the double kayaks because the reservation was messed up. You're just charging us full price for everything." She looked me in the eye and said "The original price was $254, it's $200 now. I gave you a $50 discount. Do you want me to charge you $254?" I was stunned, she's suggesting charging me the price for equipment we didn't get? Sure, charge us $254 and give us the equipment we reserved! It looked like she waited for my husband, whom she spoke with, to not be around. I told her that I wanted to wait and she said "I'm going to run the payment, we can discuss this later." Spoiler alert - there was no later! There was no training provided, when we asked them for places that we could kayak to we were given vague instructions of "There is a public beach, but it's closed. So just kayak around that bend, it's private property, but they might let you on." There's only one public beach, when that is closed then you're surrounded by large McMansion private properties and it gets tiring/boring quick. One of our friends also got stuck with the paddleboard on the rough waters. If you use Dive Winnipesaukee, be prepared to be screwed over.
