    I would give this service 6 stars if I could!!! Every time we come into town we go on a Sunapee…read morecruise and it's amazing! If you are debating it, doooo it! So fun for all ages. Tickets- they can be bought right online. We always go for the scenic lake tour. Seats- They start boarding about 15-20 minutes before they leave. Get there early!!!!! You can get the seat of your choice that way. There is seating on the ground level (mostly tables) or if you go up top there are a lot of chairs all around. What to wear- sunscreen!! You do sit directly in the sun if you sit up top. You may want to bring a light jacket because it can be breezy, but I was fine without one. Be careful of any hats you wear since it is breezy! The ride- the captain is so great about giving facts about the lake and houses on the lake. It is the perfect amount of talking. They also play light "yacht rock" music in the background. They don't go too fast and it is SUCH an enjoyable ride. There is a bathroom on board and you can purchase drinks (a full bar) and snacks. The crew was very nice and helpful when we had questions. They made sure the ride was exactly 90 minutes and even took us into a cool cove they don't normally go into when it was looking like we were going to arrive back early. I have never done the dinner cruise. It's the same ride but for $23 more it's a buffet style dinner from the Appleseed restaurant. The only con of that is there is no outdoor seating on that boat.

    We sat on the bottom level at the first table, so we were the first to go through the buffet line…read moreand the first to exit. So that was cool. My husband tried to order a beer off the menu, but they didn't have it. Instead had several different beers. Weird. I ordered a club soda and was brought something clear and bubbly, but it wasn't a club soda. Eventually I got my right order, and he chose a different beer. There were crackers and dip waiting at our table for us.. For dinner, the salad, Mac and cheese, bread, potatoes, and lasagna were all great. We didn't try the pulled pork or beans. The carved roast beef was Ok (kind of fatty). Cake choices were excellent and very delicious. Staff was good. The captain shared interesting facts along the way (Steven Tyler's house). It was smooth sailing. Sadly too cloudy for a sunset viewing. Background music was much to our liking. People along the lake were out on their decks waving to us as we passed and the Captain blew his whistle. Once it was dark and dinner was over, we were ready to get off, but we had another 30 minutes to the ride. And not much to look at outside.

    Lake Runnemede was once a privately owned lake which was donated to the town at some point. It is…read moreadjacent to Paradise Park, so you can take quite a little hike if that's your preferred activity. I personally like to take the Zig Zag trail up. You can't quite walk the entire way around the lake, but you can climb the hill and take a short walk to the entrance just past the legion. There is a gazebo to relax in across from the popular access point (near price chopper.) there are benches to sit and relax along the bank too. If you're taking kids fishing, the sunfish will be literally NONSTOP- so it keeps fishing exciting for kids but obnoxious for grown fishermen. No boats or swimming is allowed in this lake (if you need to swim, head to Kennedy Pond!) Do NOT drive down the driveway, it's not allowed for anyone for any reason (unless you live on the road.) Also be aware of the "no parking between signs" because the fire department requires access at all times and you WILL be ticketed if you choose to ignore the signs. There's plenty of parking, don't be that guy!

    Lake Runnemede, or Everett's Pond, as the locals call it is a aquatic gem in the heart of Windsor,…read moreas well as part of Paradise Park. Once privately owned by the Everett's family, it is now co-owned by the Town of Windsor and a local conservation organization. The lake is mostly for visual beauty and wildlife, as much all recreation is off limits. Not boats or swimming is allowed. I believe fishing may be off limits too now, but I used to fish here all the time. (The lake has huge carp, bass, and pickerel, and other crap fish). Access to the lake is from a path across the street from Price Chopper. Another is on State Street which is a walk in- only access road across from the School. More hiking paths as well from Paradise Park.
