Lake Journal is an independent print magazine celebrating New England’s lakes. Through narrative journalism, editorial photography and distinctive illustrations, Lake Journal keeps you on the water. Our first issue will be published in November 2026. We’ll then publish three times a year. Each issue focuses on the unique character of one lake and its watershed. From New Hampshire’s Lake Winnisquam to Rhode Island’s Worden Pond, our stories profile the diverse voices sustained by the water. Lake Journal explores how artists, craftspeople, and naturalists are inspired by the lakes. We examine the lake’s legacy through history and design. And in every issue Lake Journal highlights the conservationists whose work is fundamental to the watershed. Quality paper, limited ads, and engaging stories illuminate life on the lake, inviting readers to lean back with a copy. As the only magazine devoted to the lakes of New England, we understand the profound, essential impact of the water on our lives.

Come on in, the water is fine.
