Normally there are very few lake homes for sale in the Long Pond - Rome, and very few listings for lots and land.
Long Pond - Rome has 31 miles of shoreline. Bangor International Airport, the closest major airport, is only 49 miles away.
Long Pond is part of the Belgrade Chain of Lakes, a favored destination in Maine’s Kennebec Valley Region. With I-95 nearby, Bangor, Brunswick, or Portland are an easy drive.
Waterville is just east of the lake for stores, restaurants, Colby College, or LaFleur Airport. Augusta offers similar conveniences, including Target, VA Maine Healthcare, and the Augusta State Airport.
The waters of Long Pond stretch 2,557 acres and claim 31 miles of shoreline. The lake reaches depths of 106 feet and has a mean depth of 35 feet.
Establishments of Belgrade Lakes line the upper eastern shore of the lake, and the rest is nothing but beautiful towering trees.
Kayakers and canoers have a lovely time spotting waterfowl, wildlife, and natural foliage. The serene environment is also host to boating, sailing, fishing, and swimming.
Anglers make catches of largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, landlocked salmon, crappie, perch, and more. Ice fishing is a hit winter activity, along with ice skating, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing.
Local eateries like Sunset Grill, Belgrade Lakes Seafood, or Hello Good Pie are sure to satisfy your cravings after a long day on the water.
If you are looking for an adventure, try hiking “The Mountain” or “French Mountain” trails alongside the lakes.
If you are a golfer, you probably already know about Belgrade Lakes Greens & Ground, an award-winning course that has been nationally recognized as one of the best public golf courses.
Long Pond is part of a community that embraces its surroundings, making it the perfect place for a lake property.
