Just 96 miles from Boston, straddling the border between Maine and New Hampshire, lie the clean, clear waters of Great East Lake. Tucked away in the southwest corner of Maine in the town of Acton, Great East has been a magnet for vacationers, campers, and fishermen for over 100 years.
Great East Lake covers 1768 acres in surface area, has a maximum depth of 102 feet and a mean depth of 35 feet, and it water quality and clarity are rated above average. These clean, cool waters host a variety of fish species including brook trout, brown trout, and lake trout, pickerel, bass, perch, and sucker.
There's a very active lake association here called The Great East Lake Improvement Association. You can visit their website by clicking here: http://www.greateastlake.org/. Among the upcoming activities they have scheduled are the Great East Lake Watershed Survey Breakfast on May 30th, the Watershed Survey itself on June 13th, and an Invasive Plant Patrol Workshop on July 14th. Their annual meeting is being held on July 11th this year. For more information on any or these activities just visit their website.
