Default One of our best Vacations Ever

Belmont Resident,
About 18 years ago our young family went to Attean lake in Jackman ME and stayed at Attean Lake Lodge for a week. Stranded on an Island. No electricity, no phone, great food served by the lodge. Little boat with an outboard motor. The lake was totally undeveloped. No lights at night. I remember thinking that if we ever get in trouble on the water, they will never find us. The kids first experience fishing where they caught about 20 fish in a half an hour, most of the time without a worm on the hook buy fish who seemed quite excited to see a worm on a hook or even the smell of a worm on a hook.

In our mind the lake is still just as pristine as it was back then. What a wonderful place.
