Impressive lake region located close to Rangeley, Maine.
Reviewed By X961VQlisak - New Hampshire, United States
Excellent deep water Brook Trout and Salmon fishing, plenty of Loons and ducks. The water can get rough when the winds kick up but it’s very quiet, even on the busiest holiday weekends. There’s something special about this lake, it’s really spectacular

This 512 acre- parcel has been conserved by RLHT to forever ensure that this spectacular vista remains unspoiled. Located along the Rangeley Lakes National Scenic Byway and bordering the Maine Bureau of Public Lands, the Appalachian Trail, Mooselookmeguntic Lake and Bemis Stream, the “Height of Land” parcel is identified on virtually every map, tour guide, brochure and website that focuses on the Rangeley Lakes region. This spot provides one of the most stunning overlooks in New England. With magnificent views of Mooselookmeguntic and Richardson Lakes and the White Mountains, this forested lake landscape provides the perfect setting for artists, tourists and all who appreciate mountain air and spectacular scenery. RLHT purchased the 512-acre property in 2008 from a large timber company and is currently engaged in a campaign to complete the funding of the acquisition.

4. Saddleback
Overall Ratings

At Saddleback, we've taken a different road from other large resorts. From our natural terrain and our wilderness environment to how the mountain was developed and is operated, almost everything about Saddleback is different.It's a magnificent mountain with genuine values and a gentle soul. It's the way Alpine skiing and riding used to be. Classic New England ski terrain with trails that follow the contours. Snow-covered conifers over most of the mountain create a different feel with rime-frosted trees at the lower elevations and snow ghosts at the upper. High elevation alpine experience with snowfields. At 4120 ft elevation, Saddleback is only one of seven ski mountains in New England with atop lift elevation over 4000 feet. Our vertical is greater than several well-known big mountain resorts. Kennebago Steeps! is the largest steep skiing and riding facility in the East. Saddleback has extensive glades like other ski areas but only Saddleback has Casablanca Glades & Chutes which provide endless ways down through Paradise.

Saddleback is back and a great addition to Maine and New England skiing. Saddleback has a great mix of bumps, glades and nice groomers. Given its northern location, Saddleback maintains mid season snow conditions late into the season. We visited mid March and everything wa open with good snow on bumbs, glades, and groomers. Saddleback only has a few lifts, but the new detactable guad gets lots of skiers up quickly limiting lines and given the modest number of skiers willing to travel to Saddleback, it doesn't get crowded. And given all of this, the price can't be beat. Will definitely be going back.

Excellent Overall Experience. Great for large groups and families. Good way to spend an afternoon or an evening. It's a bowling alley -- the big balls (not candlepin). It is also a bar, a pool hall, a lounge, and an arcade. The arcade is currently closed as part of the pandemic protocols. The lounge area is a big round indoor fire pit with big comfy chairs. Plenty of beer on the tap. You can order drinks and food delivered to your bowling lane. One weakness is the food. Its below average or barely average bar food. Ok for snacks and beer and bowling. The nachos are pretty good. The pizza is super thin and I'm guessing frozen/microwaved or something. Easy to find on Main Street in Rangeley and plenty of parking. We go at least once every year -- a group of 12 adults and teens.
6. Rangeley Lake State Park

We spent a week camping here and loved every minute of it. The campground is clean and quiet and most sites are private. The bathrooms are updated and there are a few scattered around so no site is too far from one. Great hot water and free showers. This is a state park so there is no store on site or nearby but there is wood and ice for sale at the entrance. We plan to return this fall and again next summer.
