If you’re a Mainer or resident of a neighboring state, you must add Sebago Lake State Park to your day trip bucket list. As one of Maine’s original five state parks, Sebago Lake State Park opened in 1938 to provide recreation and outdoor activities to the public.
The area encompasses 1,400 acres and features extensive woodlands, ponds, rivers, sandy beaches, and habitats for numerous plant and animal life.
Geographically, the park lies at the foothills of White Mountain, in the towns of Naples and Casco. Sebago Lake State Park offers 250 campsites shared between two campgrounds, Witch Cove and Naples Beach.
As a visitor, you’ll enjoy activities including canoeing, cross-country skiing, sports fishing, camping, hiking, snowshoeing, and roadway biking. Swimming and boating are also available at the day-use area of the park's east section.
If you’re a hiker, you’ll be pleased to know that the hiking trails are well-marked and rated easy to moderate. They meander through various forest types and woodlands and empty along the north side of Sebago Lake and Songo River. You’re likely to see bald eagles, deer, and other wildlife on your hike.
Fishing in summer is possible via the park's boat launch and Songo Lock Veteran's Fishing Pier. Unlike most parks in Maine, winter fishing is allowed since ice doesn’t form on the lake until much later. However, caution must be taken before venturing out.
The facilities on the park include food service, group picnic shelter, playground, RV dumping station
RV hookup (electric and water), public restrooms, and trailer boat launches.
Sebago Lake State Park is open all year round from 9:00 pm to sunset, unless otherwise stated at the gate. You should note that specific activities such as picnicking and winter camping are available upon reservations, so make sure to contact the park ahead of time.
