Silver Lake is a convert|969|acre|km2|sing=on [ [http://www.granit.sr.unh.edu New Hampshire GRANIT database] ] water body located in Carroll County in eastern New Hampshire, in the town of Madison. Water from Silver Lake flows via the West Branch to Ossipee Lake and ultimately to the Saco River in Maine.

Much of the lake's perimeter is forested, but there are numerous swimming spots. Popular beaches include "the foot" of the lake, "Nichols Beach", and "the head of the lake", where the general store "The Silver Mine" has just been rebuilt after an unfortunate fire.
