Maine's oldest lake association, founded in 1908 to protect and improve the watershed of Great Pond and Long Pond

Family-owned lakeside store serving the Belgrade Lakes region since 1958. Selection includes a market and deli, merchandise, sporting goods including fishing tackle and worms, and a cafe to open soon!

As a Maine based, family-owned building supply business, Hammond Lumber Company is committed to public service and to making a contribution to the local and regional communities that have supported us over the years. Believing in the values and ethics of good sportsmanship, we have also been an enthusiastic supporter of area athletic teams from our earliest beginnings. Within the framework of athletic competition, area youth have been given the opportunity to accept a challenge, to compete, and win or lose, to stay in the game. We've developed many enduring relationships over the years and the people of Maine are part of our history and continued success. Accordingly, we make every effort to contribute in ways that are most beneficial to the community at large.

Loon Ridge of Belgrade Maine, Formerly Abenakis All Season Camps, is excited to share our new cottages with you!

Every inch of our cottages have been remodeled and updated into a luxurious haven with a rustic Maine flair. These cottages feature completely modernized kitchens and bathrooms, beautiful bedrooms and open concept living space with magnificent sprawling views!

The property is nestled between Belgrade Stream and Snow Pond (or Messalonskee Lake) with direct access to each body of water. Each cottage is perched on the ridge overhanging the stream, giving our guests stunning panoramic views.

The meandering stream is home to several pairs of loons which serenade our lucky guests daily. Loon Ridge of Belgrade will bring back memories of yesteryear with our family focused camp experience and all the modern amenities our guests could wish for.
