Waterfront

Picturesque Lake Cobbosseecontee is the site of all our waterfront activities including sailing, waterskiing, windsurfing, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and stand-up paddle-boarding.

Our waterfront staff are certified lifeguards who hold further certifications in their specialty areas. The ten mile long lake is great for sailing and canoeing trips, and its protected coves are ideal for learning to waterski in calm, undisturbed water.

Our waterski boats are equipped with teaching booms so beginners can experience the thrill of standing up on skis, or a wakeboard, the very first time. Red Cross swim instruction is taught in the protected area of our substantial dock system while canoeing, kayaking, and stand-up paddle-boarding classes enjoy exploring the local shores.

Sailing on Lake Cobbosseecontee

We are fortunate to be located on such a big open lake, allowing for amazing sailing opportunities and our sailboats of all sizes cater to professional instruction for the beginner through the advanced sailor. Windsurfing is always challenging and popular as girls improve their balance and learn to control the sail.  Our well-known bass fishing lake is the perfect spot for girls to try out fishing from our docks, and out on the open water.

Kippewa’s waterfront is equipped with 4 Malibu ski boats, Pico and 420 sailboats, canoes, kayaks, stand-up paddle-boards, fishing equipment, chase boats and windsurfers.
