Ossipee in the Winter

Looking for some feedback from those of you who've fished it. 
Looking at maybe renting there during the derby.  No direct access for our machines on the property so I'm hoping we could use the public launch?  Any worries with that? 
Does the entire lake tend to freeze over with the right conditions?  Any usual open areas or places of concern?
Any fished it during Derby weekend?  Crowded?
thanks as always......

If you're referring to the public launch off Rt. 25 (Pine River launch) I wouldn't count on it.  Unless there's a snowmobile easement that follows the river to the lake, I would never trust that ice on foot, never mind on a machine.  Maybe there's another launch you're referring to but the only other one I know of is private and may not be open or available othewise.

I'm not too familiar with the area. 
Rt 25 launch is the public access I presume. Looks like Peqwuaket Trail Rd? Lakefront Landing Marina?

Winter access restricted to only that launch?

Steve H.:
Pictured is the public (state) launch off Rt. 25.  Note the river that boats must travel the river to get from the ramp to the lake.  Highly doubt that's doable with a machine. 

Lakefront Landing Marina, at the end of Pequawket Trail, is a private marina and I don't know if they allow snow machines to access from their property.  Also, there's current there and I don't know if it would be safe or they would want the liability.

Ya the one off 25 would def seem sketch. Maybe worth calling the Marina though.
