About Maine

Lake Living in Maine

Many have taken to calling Maine "Vacationland", owing to its ideal summer setting. Maine's rolling mountain views, pristine pine forests, and crystal clear waters have combined with its long-famous seafood (Maine provides 90% of America's lobster) have combined to give it a reputation for natural beauty and as the 1.3 million residents of Maine would put it "Life as it Should Be". Though many may think initially of rocky shorelines and beaches in Maine, the state secretly stores away a stunning array of lakes and lakefront property. What's more, Maine has consistently ranked as the safest state in the United States, making it a great place to look for lake lots, summer homes, or other waterfront property.

Discover the best lakefront listings in Maine - lake houses, properties, land, lots and acreage. Find real estate agents who specialize in Maine lake property to help you buy or sell a lake home. With an ideal summer setting, Maine is often referred to as "Vacationland". It is highly ranked as a safe place to live with rugged natural beauty with over 6,000 lakes and 5,000 miles of oceanfront.

The Pine Tree State

Maine is named the "Pine Tree" state, a reference to its renowned rugged beauty. You can experience over 5,000 miles of craggy coast, stunning dense forests, untouched offshore islands, and rocky mountains. Each season brings raw beauty: the bright green and wildflowers of spring, balmy, salty summers, fiery foliage in the fall, and crisp, sparkling winters. Not to mention, the endless state parks and beautiful Acadia National Park are wonderlands ready to be explored! Maine was first settled as early as 1604, when French traders established Acadia on the rocky shores. They soon ventured inland and discovered Maine and many of its over 6,000 lakes. These lakes are some of the cleanest and most untouched lakes in the country. Freshwater paradises are scattered across this landscape, and Lakehouse lays them at your feet. Here you can search lake property in Maine by lake, city, or even county. Alternatively, you can search using the interactive map and pan across the most Northernmost state of New England.

Maine on The Brain

Apart from being the safest state in the country, Maine is a beautiful state full of activity and fun for all ages. The sportsman will never be too far from a fishing hole or a golf course, and the state grants permits for deer, moose and even bear hunting. Fishing in Maine includes everything from the bountiful coasts, to the sparkling streams and the loaded lakes. Maine's anglers can catch everything all kinds of trout, landlocked Salmon, large and smallmouth bass, pike and musky.

Maine is also famous for its quaint coastal towns, which span its nearly 3,500 miles of ocean shoreline. Its largest city, Portland, totals only 68,000 and even it maintains a superb small town feel, with picturesque lighthouses and delectable seafood diners strewn across the shore. The capitol of Maine, Augusta, sits beside a 18th century wooden fort and a recreated trading post, taking visitors back to Maine's humble origins as a French trading port. Wherever you'd like to seek out your lake home in Maine, there's a lake perfect for you.
