About Rangeley Lake State Park

Rangeley Lake State Park covers roughly 870 acres in western Maine's mountain region, on the southern shore of a large lake. Visitors come for camping, picnicking, hiking, birdwatching, and fishing, and the lake is known for its landlocked salmon and trout. The campground has 50 sites near the water, and a beach looks out toward Saddleback Mountain. Facilities include a playground, a picnic area, and a boat launch with docks. The park also reflects the region's history as a destination for anglers and vacationers in the 1800s and early 1900s.
