Dog Sledding Puppies Highlight of Trips from this Maine Country Inn in Greenville

Thursday, February 23rd, 2012

Dog sledding trips from the lodge have been very popular this winter.  With plenty of snow and trails in great condition; this has been a full filled activity.  Guests have not only come back talking about sledding but this year, they are greeted by a batch of puppies.  You can see they are enjoying the new puppies as much as the trip.  There is still plenty of time to take in winter activities from the Lodge at Moosehead Lake.
