Local Management
Managing Property in Ashland
Ashland is a small working village on Little Squam Lake, just off I-93 at Exit 24, with a real downtown, everyday services, a town beach and Plymouth ten minutes away. Little Squam connects to the main lake by a channel, which makes Ashland the most accessible and often most affordable way into the Squam waters, and it is where a lot of the lakeside rental cottages are.
We manage both halves of that: lakeside cottages that rent by the week in summer through our vacation rental management program, and village houses and apartments that lease year-round through our property management service, from our Plymouth office.

Local Knowledge
What an Ashland Owner Should Know
Ashland’s ZIP code is 03217, and its 2025 property tax rate is $19.19 per $1,000 of assessed value. The town has something no other town here has: its own municipal electric department, with rates set by the selectboard, which matters to a landlord who pays the utilities on a rental. Students attend Plymouth Regional High School in SAU 48, and Speare Memorial Hospital is ten minutes up Route 3.
A rental on Little Squam runs on a summer calendar rather than a ski one, with the marinas, a general store and a couple of restaurants at the lower end of the lake. The state layer applies to every weekly rental: the 8.5% Meals and Rooms (Rentals) Tax, a Meals and Rentals license before the first booking and the license number in every listing, which we administer for the homes we manage.
Ashland Owners
Managing From Ten Minutes Away
Our Plymouth office at 56 Main Street is the base for Ashland work, and the cleaners, plow contractors and tradespeople we coordinate already cover the Squam side of the valley. For an owner who lives in Massachusetts or further, that is the difference between a cottage that is ready for Saturday’s arrival and one that is not.
We do not publish income projections for any town. If you are weighing a specific Ashland property as a rental, the free short-term rental analysis looks at that property rather than a market average.
