Rattlesnake Island on Lake Winnipesaukee
Rattlesnake Island is a 368 acre island on Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire. There are conflicting accounts of where it got its name, because its shape looks somewhat like a snake, but rattlesnakes were actually found on the island as late as the 1940's. The skins and remains of some of these snakes can be seen at the Libby Musuem on Route 109 in Wolfeboro. The island is located within the town of Alton.
