Middle Range Pond - Poland, Maine

Our Maine lake house is located in Poland - a stone's throw from Maine's Sebago Lakes region - on Middle Range Pond. A short two hour drive from the Boston-area, Middle Range Pond is home to so many water activities including paddle boating, kayaking, fishing, swimming and more! We love that Middle Range Pond is a smaller, quiet lake that does not allow Jet Skis.

 

The closest supermarket is Hannaford, located about 6 miles away in the town of Mechanic Falls, Maine. If you're driving from the south, the closest supermarket is Hannaford in Gray, a few miles away from Exit 63 (from 95N) and right on the way to Birch Point. There is also a Walmart located 13 miles up 26N in Oxford, Maine. 

 

When you're not enjoying everything that 'lake life' has to offer, there are many other Maine attractions nearby!
