Echo Lake Beach, located on the slopes of Canon Mountain in the New Hampshire White Mountain's Franconia State Park, is surely one of New England's most beautiful lakes. Clear, clean and endlessley scenic, the 28-acre Echo Lake is majestically surrounded by the Franconia and Kinsman Ranges and lends an innate peacefulness that so many travelers are looking for in a New England vacation. The summer beach scene is Echo Lake's most busy time, offering visitors an ideal lake beach travel getaway and lifeguards on duty, a snack bar, and the chance to rent a kayak or canoe for quintessential New Hampshire mountains-meet-lake scenery. The fall is also a wonderful time to visit with its amazing trees reflecting its brilliant colors on the water.

If it's true that location is everything, then Echo Lake Beach is your scenic lake dream-come-true!
