RAYMOND’S Frozen Custard

The best custard by far in Maine Baby!

WHAT IS FROZEN CUSTARD? When asked the question, one often gets many different answers. Some typical responses are, “Is that the stuff inside Donuts?” or, “Is it pudding?”

But usually the response is, “I have no idea!”

Frozen Custard is a gourmet ice cream treat that first originated at the turn of the century on Coney Island, New York, as a carnival treat. The popularity of frozen custard quickly grew and was the rage of the East Coast. Frozen custard was found at many East Coast resort areas. Travelers had a chance to taste the new sensation and it quickly spread to the Midwest. Milwaukee is currently considered the “Custard Capital of the World”. The enjoyment of Frozen Custard was then taken by snowbirds to winter resort havens in the south resulting in multiple new shops to satisfy these customers. The popularity of frozen custard continues to spread into other regions of the country.

Raymond’s offers multiple exciting flavors and service with a smile – Stop By Today!

W E LCO M E I t’s Wonderful to See You.

As you begin to consider your touring plans for this year, you will not have to look farther than the beautiful community of Naples. Tagged as the Heart of the Lakes Region, one visit will convince you of what so many have discovered before you, genuine love for the area.

Located centrally in the Western Maine Lakes Region, you will never be far from great shopping, fantastic restaurants, ample camping opportunities, and of course, the limitless water attractions of Long Lake, Brandy Pond, and Sebago Lake.

I should not forget to mention one of the best July 4th fireworks shows around.

The Causeway in Naples offers a pristine stop for a leisurely lunch, a public dock for boaters, a short walk to an amply supplied public library, a water tour on the Songo River Queen, or if you prefer, a birds-eye view from a seaplane. If you like quiet spaces, take your family for a picnic to Blue Rock park and throw in your fishing line or stop at the Crooked River to watch the boaters pass through the Songo Locks.

Naples has so much to offer any time of the year, and we encourage you to visit over and over again. You will not be disappointed.

Welcome to the Heart of the Lakes Region The Information Center is very unique as we share the same building as the Naples Museum, so stop in tour the Museum and view some of the history. Purchase a history book or vintage photos of the area.

You will also find booklets from around the state, a list of local events and suggestions for day trips within 30 mins of Naples you won’t want to miss.

Naples is a four season town, stay at one of the areas B & B’s that are open year round and see the spectacular views and colors it has to offer.

Winter in Naples is quiet, stay busy ice skating on ponds and lakes, ice fishing, snowmobiling on the local trails. Winter photography is beautiful.

What could be better then a walk on the lake and watching Bald Eagles snatch a fish someone left on the ice. One visit just won’t be enough!

The Info Center is a drop off point for those wishing to make donations to Harvest Hills animal shelter in Fryeburg. You will see a most needed list on the donation box or make a monetary donation and it will be picked up by their volunteers.

Long Lake is an eleven mile lake with an average depth of 23 ft and max. depth of 59 ft, between the towns of Naples, Bridgton, and Harrison. Fishing enthusiasts may catch landlocked salmon, small and large mouth bass, and chain pickerel.

Brandy Pond is also known as Bay of Naples. It's a connecting body of water between Long Lake and Sebago Lake. With an area of 762 acres, the maximum depth is about 44 feet. Because Brandy Pond serves as a passageway between Sebago Lake and Long Lake, coldwater fish species such as landlocked salmon, brook trout, and brown trout can all be found within its waters.

Trickey Pond is nearby on Rt 114, a 315 acre body of water with a max.

55' depth and exceptionally clear. The pond produces high quality landlocked salmon, and provides good habitat for adult brook trout, lake trout and splake.

A portion of Sebago Lake State Park is in Naples, a very popular destination for its sandy beach, woodland walking trails, picnic areas, playground, restrooms, boat launching and 250 campsites on 1400 acres.

The Songo Lock is the last working lock from the 30-plus locks built in the 1830s which linked Long Lake to the Atlantic Ocean near Portland via the Cumberland and Oxford Canal. Songo Lock connects Sebago Lake to Brandy Pond and Long Lake. The Songo Lock was rebuilt in 1911 by the Sebago Lake Improvement Company for water level control. The Lock is in Sebago Lake State Park between Naples and Casco off U.S. Route 302 and is now used primarily during the summer months by boaters wanting to travel between the two bodies of water. Visitors must pay a fee to travel through the lock by boat. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970 and is maintained by the State of Maine. For more in depth history and maps of the C & O please visit the Naples Museum.

The trail head says that this is the Bri-Mar Trail, looks like the sheep pasture. You can find the trailhead on the left side of Route 85 if you are heading North out of Raymond.

camping

Naples' campgrounds are some of the best kept secrets in Maine. The privately owned parks are of the highest quality and packed full of activities and events.

Located in the center of southern Maine’s Lake Region, Naples has a wealth of opportunities for recreation year-round.

Visitors are drawn to the Naples Causeway on Long Lake and Brandy Pond where they find our special attraction, the Songo River Queen II. For those looking for the camping experience, Naples abounds with options of every type.

For those looking for the rustic experience, you’ll find small clearings in wooded areas near lakes and streams. Quiet, solitude,

20

and star lit skies will cap off the experience of camping in these remote areas. For some, the camping experience can be found in assorted commercial campgrounds that offer everything from basic tent sites to far more elaborate sites with water and electricity hook-ups for pull behind trailers or recreational vehicles.

Some campgrounds offer amenities such as swimming pools, areas for sports and games, convenience stores, firewood for sale and bathing facilities.

Naples 2021

2021 Naples Guide.indd 20

2/24/21 10:30 AM

Here are a few local campgrounds we recommend:

ts t

Colonial Mast Campground is so named due to the history of the property and area. Located in Mast Cove on Long Lake. During Colonial times, the trees in this area were harvested for ships masts as they grew so tall and straight, hence our name. It is our great location on the lake, our sandy beach and the beauty of these tall trees that folks who are camping with us visit to enjoy. We strive to provide the best in family camping, with our well-maintained grounds, friendly customer service, and kids planned activities. With the addition of our indoor pool in 1997, we offer year round recreational camping. The pool is open to the public, and the pool and hot tub, along with our beautiful lodge are well enjoyed by the community, especially in the winter months, offering open swim time, aquacise classes, birthday parties and swim lessons. See our ad on page 23.

Four Season's Campground Bob and Judith Van Der Zee started camping with their family at Four Seasons Camping Area in 1971. Ten years later, they purchased the campground. The day to day operations are now run by two of their children, Andrew Van Der Zee and Beth Brown. Much of the campground looks the same as it did 40 years ago, except the trees have grown taller, and the sites are more spacious to accommodate larger trailers. Many families come back year after year and make wonderful memories along the shores of Long Lake. See our ad on page 23.

Loon's Haven Family Campground has been enjoyed by families since 1961.

The white sandy beaches, clear water, and wooded setting offer a relaxing getaway. You can hear the loons call across the spring-fed pond early each day while you enjoy the fresh morning air and the beauty that surrounds you.

Evenings bring more loons calls, and the most stunning sunset shows you have ever seen. As the only campground on crystal clear spring-fed Trickey Pond you can be sure to enjoy swimming, boating, kayaking, and fishing without having to exit the campground. We offer waterfront, 50amp, and full hook up sites, and are very pet friendly. Rental units and onsite store and cafe offerings make it so you do not have to leave during your vacation. See our ad on page 22.

Crooked River Campground - Make Sebago’s Crooked River Campground your destination for incomparable quality in family camping. We offer seasonal camping, with some of our campers having returned here – season after season – for over 20 years! We have a seasonal site that will exceed your expectations.

In addition to our RV rental unit, we have two tent sites (no utilities, with picnic table and fire ring) that are available for $50.00 a night. Along with exceptional campsites, the following is a list of some of the many family-friendly activities and amenities that we offer.

Sebago’s Crooked River Campground is located at the north end of Sebago Lake, interconnected by the Songo River, accessing Brandy Pond and Long Lake. Enjoy navigating a 35 mile stretch of water that offers something for everyone. More than anything else, you will enjoy the company and camaraderie of other families – just like yours – who are attracted to everything that Sebago’s Crooked River Campground has to offer. Don’t be disappointed. Contact us about seasonal camping or reserve your RV rental unit today! Your hosts - The Wolpert Family. See our Kayaking rental ad page 12
