Ossipee is a town in Carroll County, New Hampshire, USA. The population was 4,211 at the 2000 census. It is the county seat of Carroll County 6. Ossipee is a venerable resort area and home to part of Pine River State Forest. Originally known as "Wigwam Village," and then "New Garden," the town was named for the Ossipee Indians, one of the twelve Algonquian tribes. It was once the site of an Indian stockade fort, designed to protect the tribe from the Mohawks in the west. In 1725, the Indian stockade was destroyed, and then rebuilt by Captain John Lovewell. The new fort was one of the largest in New England. Ossipee would become incorporated in 1785. The town shares its name with the Ossipee Mountains, once a range of ancient volcanoes, which border it on the west. Ossipee is a major source of sand and gravel, transported by railroad, to Boston, Massachusetts. According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 195.7 km (75.6 mi ). 184.3 km (71.2 mi ) of it is land and 11.4 km (4.4 mi ) of it is water, comprising 5.85% of the town. Ossipee is drained by the Ossipee, Pine, Beech, Bearcamp, and Lovell rivers. Ossipee Lake is in the northeastern part of the town. The highest point in Ossipee is 2,080 feet (634 meters ) above sea level on an unnamed ridge in the Ossipee Mountains in the western part of town. Featured Homes in Ossipee, NH
