Sebago Lake State Park opened to the public in 1938 as one of the
five original state parks. This forested lakeside park is situated on
the shore of Maine's deepest and second largest lake which provides
year-round recreation for thousands of visitors each year. Near the
foothills of the While Mountains, the park's 1,400 acres features sandy
beaches, extensive woodlands, ponds, bogs a river and diverse habitat
for a wide variety of plant and animal life.
Swimming, sport fishing, camping and boating are some of the summer
activities enjoyed by visitors. The park's 250-site campground is a
popular destination for family vacationers and provides lasting memories
season after season. Wooded areas offer a respite from the sun and
activity on the beaches. Whether hiking on marked trails or bicycling on
park roads, visitors find many way to enjoy the park.
Carved by ancient rivers and scoured by Ice Age glaciers, Sebago Lake
fills a basin made of granite that has been weathered for millions of
year. Thanks to those glaciers, visitors today an enjoy an array of
water sports on Maine's 45 square mile lake. |
