Maine
Normally there are very few lake homes for sale in the Schoodic Lake, and very few listings for lots and land.
The towns of Milo and Brownville are near Schoodic Lake, where one can find the necessities.
Dover-Foxcroft is just under 20 minutes away and offers restaurants, motels, and vacation cottages, along with hospitals and an airport.
Monson and Greenville are cities just an hour away from where there are more dining, shopping, and tourist attractions.
Covering 7,021 acres it is one of the largest lakes in the Maine Highlands area. The waters of Schoodic Lake are exceptionally clear and reach depths of 188 feet.
Pontoons, rowboats, canoes, and small watercraft are most common on the lake but there is an occasional powerboat or other personal watercraft.
All watersports are allowed on the lake but the hardwood forests surrounding Lake Schoodic make it a great location for snowmobiling, snowshoeing mountain climbing, and biking.
The gravel roads that cut through the forest have become popular hiking routes for their scenic views of Mt Katahdin.
Schoodic Lake is designated as a cold water fishery but it still hosts a summer fishing derby where smallmouth bass is abundant. In February the lake hosts an ice fishing tournament that is timed with the free fishing weekend.
The Black Fly Festival takes place in June and has become a popular celebration despite its name.
Another event in June is the Best Whoopie Pie of the Year Contest where local bakers compete to make the Maine dessert delicacy of two cakes (chocolate, pumpkin, gingerbread, and more) with a sweet creamy filling.
Those looking for fun off the water can visit the nearby town of Schoodic, Maine.
One popular attraction is the Acadia Mountain Guides Climbing School, where visitors can head out with a guide and learn how to climb down Maine's beautiful mountains. Those who love honey will enjoy visiting the Champlain Mountain & Beehive Loop Trail, where visitors can hike through the woods and relax in nature.
A home or vacation rental on Lake Schoodic can be a peaceful escape for anyone.
