Fishing details/Whitewater Rafting details: A glance at any map reveals a number of bodies of water ranging in size from Moosehead Lake to ponds of only a few acres. Some waters are easily accessed by car while others require some hiking and carrying. Among the popular species are bass, perch, trout, salmon, and togue. If this is your first time fishing in the Moosehead area, we recommend the use of a guide. Basic fishing outfits can be purchased from several stores in town. Be sure that you have a license and an up-to-date fishing regulation book. . . Then if you are up for something with more action - Experience whitewater rafting!!Each year thousands of paddlers challenge the whitewater of the Kennebec, Penobscot and Dead Rivers. With the Moosehead Lake Region situated between these premier whitewater rivers, the area is a perfect spot for the river enthusiast to stay. Outfitters provide you with everything needed for a fun, safe trip.

Hunting Details/ Scenic Flying Experience: The Moosehead Lake region offers many exciting opportunities for hunters of all ages. Our region teems with wildlife and affords hunters a vast amount of terrain in which to spend a few hours, a day or a week. Some popular species of animals to hunt include partridge, rabbit, deer, bear and moose. Each of these has a specific legal hunting season and set of regulations, which can be found at the website for the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. If this is your first time to the Moosehead area, we recommend the use of a guide. . . .Since much of the Moosehead Lake shoreline and many sporting camps are not accessible by road, seaplanes get quickly where motor vehicles and boats cannot. Two commercial air services offer sightseeing excursions. A half-hour flight around the lower half of the lake is a good way to appreciate the vastness of both lake and wilderness. Currier's Flying Service or Folsom's Flying Service, both will offer you a scenic flying experience!

Snowmobiling details: You have access to The Moosehead Lake Snowmobile Trail from the front yard of the Loon's Nest cabin. This trail climbs up to lofty overlooks, passes through deep forests, stops at outposts like Kokadjo, Northeast Carry, Seboomook, and Pittston Farm, and Greenville, never too many miles from food and fun.

Five local clubs, town employees and many volunteers keep these trails in great condition. Whether you want to take just a morning or afternoon trip or spend all day on the trails, your choices are many. Pack a lunch and stop at any number of locations with beautiful scenery; or plan to ride to one of the surrounding towns and enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner at one of the areas restaurants or inns that cater to snowmobilers.

Annual Maine Snowmobile Trail Rides: B-52 Memorial Elephant Mountain Snowmobile Trail Ride and The Ricky Craven Moosehead Lake Region Ice Fishing Snowmobile Trail Ride.

My friend & I stayed at Loon's Nest in September (a perfect time of year). The house was wonderful with all the amenities you would ever need. I would recommend this home to anyone! It was so convenient having a dock since we brought our boat (which we could launch at the nearby marina). The location was terrific - private, not far from Greenville, restaurants, shopping, etc. We plan on returning to Loon's Nest!

Everyting as described. Plenty of space inside and out. Large parking area for our two snowmobile trailers (5 place and 2 place). The wrap around deck is the place where I would entertain all summer long! Clean and very well maintained. The description of the property had our hopes up, and we were not dissapointed. The close proximity to the lake was a must. 30 seconds on snowmobile and we were on the ice fishing. Easy access to the all the trails from the diveway. This was our first time here but hoping it will not be the last. The owners take pride in thier home and it shows. My hats off to them for making our experience a great one.

Still Awesome

This was our second time staying at "The Loon's Nest". We stayed here 7 years ago and had been talking about going back ever since. The house is still terrific, a real home away from home. Every amenity is included and it is as clean and tidy as it was the last time we were there. The entire area is a place everyone should visit. Moosehead Lake is beautiful from every angle. Lily Bay State Park was quiet and peaceful. We even took a guided moose safari by van and canoe. We saw several moose, not a big deal to those in the area, but to Pennsylvanian's they are amazing creatures. We highly recommend this wonderful home.

My family enjoyed our stay at this beautiful log home and even though there were 6 of us, we were all comfortable. The house is very nice with plenty of room and a great porch! Kitchen has everything you need and a pleasure to use. We enjoyed hiking over at Mt. Kineo and renting a jet ski was the highlight for my older teen boys. They even did the traditional jump off the bridge! The roads from the nearest town, Greenville, were being paved, so they were difficult to travel and we had to stop frequently due to the work being done. There was a mix-up with the sheets that were left on the beds to use, and double sheets were mixed with twin sheets, which made for a frustrating arrival for me to get the beds all made for everyone. But those were the only gliches, in an otherwise, well worth-it trip to a great home! We had a lot of garbage piling up and the cans had been gotten into by animals, but we made one phone call, and they were there to pick it up right away! Weather was great with one real rainy day; we enjoyed playing a board game together that evening. Plenty to do on the lake or off if you are looking for simple pleasures. We were glad to have brought 2 bikes, and they were well used. Loved Maine, loved Loon's Nest! It was clean, cozy and comfortable for all! Thanks so much!
