The covered bridge in Jackson was built in 1876. It is a popular place for taking wedding pictures, hence the nickname "honeymoon Bridge".

Located in the White mountains, it takes a hike of approximately 1,5 miles to get to the 200 ft high Arethusa falls.

This covered bridge replaces a steel and concrete bridge that was condemned by the state on River Street in Ashland. After the condemnation, the state proposed a two-lane steel bridge for this site. The citizens of Ashland, however, decided they would prefer a one lane covered bridge. The balance of funds needed for this project were raised by the Squam River Covered Bridge Committee of the Ashland Historical Society.
The bridge was constructed by Milton Graton and Sons. It was officially dedicated on July 1, 1990. The Squam River covered bridge was constructed in a manner which replicates the traditional style of covered bridges.
