Four Seasons Four Reasons
Live, Work, Learn and Play
Enjoy the Lakes Region in every way

The Greater Bridgton Lakes Region consists of small communities, each lending its own unique style to the overall area. Though our charming towns and classic New England villages are small, we have all the services you may need. We take your fun, relaxation and business seriously, so check us out.

Playing

Playgrounds and beaches provide children an opportunity to have fun, make friends, get exercise and be physically challenged. From building sand castles to swimming, the fun and benefits of time spent at the beach are endless. There are playgrounds and beaches scattered throughout the Greater Bridgton Lakes Region Area for your enjoyment. And while you are at it, pack your picnic basket, grab a blanket and rediscover the boundless joy of eating in the great outdoors. Keep it simple and remember not to litter.

While you are at the beach, remember that we all love clean water. It only takes one boater to do immeasurable damage to our vulnerable ponds and lakes. Invasive water plants, such as milfoil, are spread by boats, which pick them up at one infested lake and carry them to another. Boat wash stations are available at some boat launch sites in the Greater Bridgton Lakes Region Area. And Courtesy Inspectors are often on hand to help inspect boats for plants. All launch sites include signs explaining the need for such inspections. After you’ve checked that your gas tank is full, your lunch is packed and your gear is stored, please check and remove any vegetation from your boat.

Though we’ve listed places to play, picnic and launch your boat, don’t forget that we have plenty of other places to play during each season throughout the Greater Bridgton Lakes Region. For lists of hikes, bike rides, and other outdoor or indoor activities, be sure to check with the Chamber Information Center.
