1353.0. "NO PHONE NO LIGHTS NO MOTORCAR" by SALEM::JUNG () Fri Mar 16 1990 10:58

                  I am looking for an inexpensive place to stay
                  at Winni P for about a week in MAY. I don't
                  need a 6-8 room condo nor do I want to pay the
                  4-5 hundred $ . All I need ia a shower and a roof
                  over my head. Hopefully this would be on or very
                  near the water. Does such a place exist. Any 
                  help would be greatly appreciated. I have checked
                  all notes related to Winni, camping, etc. , and 
                  all the rentals offer more than I'm interested
                  in. Thanks in advance!!!

    There's a motel in Laconia called Barton's that looks fairly
    reasonable, and there's an enclosed shopping mall nearby that has just
    completed construction of an upper level that contains lots of motel
    rooms. Sorry, I forget the name. Call Laconia Chamber of Commerce, they
    might know. It's right on Weirs Blvd.

    	You might want to look into some campgrounds. Last year we stayed
    at a place apx 5 min. from the Gilford Marina, and about 15 min. from
    the beach. I think the average price for a tent site was only $ 12.00.
    If you don't mind roughing it a bit, then this is a good alternative. 
    Most parks have a bathroom/shower set up, and a good many have a basic
    general store for the things you forgot. I'm sorry but I don't recall 
    the name of the park we stayed at. I know I can relax alot better when
    I am in the woods with my tent/wife/hammock/cooler/radio/good eats....
    I can go on forever with this, I guess you could say I enjoy camping.
    
                                    I hope this helps

1353.3CAMPING SOUNDS BESTJETSAM::CATALDOMon Mar 19 1990 15:097
    Try Ames Farm in Gilford.  You may be able to just rent a room in some
    of the properties they have.  I don't know the rates, but be aware that
    May is the time the lakers and salmon are not deep, and they're easier
    to take.  Any place offered commercially on the water may be expensive
    for a week.  Camping sounds like the best shot.
