If you see a gold moosehead on the back of a SUV, it’s probably us.  This vehicle is great for the North woods of Maine and the tire cover makes it fun.

Enjoy the natural beauty of the North woods fall foliage and the solitude of a canoe ride on a remote mountain pond.  This special four hour trip during September and early October starts with a walking trail to the pond where a canoe has been stored for your ride.  Our own Registered Maine guide will provide area stories and wildlife knowledge. Paddle through the quiet beauty listening to the water drop from your paddle and loons call through the air.  It is a respite you’ll long remember.  Call the lodge 207-695-4400 to reserve your trip with a lodging stay.

Found in the basement of the carriage house was the copper moose without his antlers.  Dennis welded the antlers, polished him up and fixed the base.  Now it is back where it belongs, looking out over Moosehead Lake and directing you to the sunset and wonders of the north woods.

Moosehead Lake from a visitors seaplane ride looks like the head of a Moose. Can you see it?  This picture was taken last week as a guest took a ride with Jack’s Air Service, right here in Greenville, Maine.  The lake is 20 miles by 40 miles and is the largest instate lake east of the Mississippi River.  Taking a seaplane ride is one of two very popular activities for vacationers.  The other activity is of course a Moose Safari.  Moose can also be spotted from the air, with a keen eye.

May and June are great months to come to the Moosehead Lake region to see Moose. It is calving season and not uncommon to see twins. Call the Lodge to book your room  and let us reserve a Moose Safari and Wildlife trip with our Registered Maine Guide. These photos were taken by Lodge guests.
