Wilsons on Moosehead Lake reporting: So much to report!  There are many exciting things going on here at Wilsons Camps on Moosehead Lake.  We have gone Wi-Fi!!!! We now have a broadband system offering wireless Internet to our guests.   

We are in the midst of a beautiful, hot summer.  Not much rain, and cool nights.  Perfect for enjoying your summer vacation at Moosehead Lake.  Flowers and trees are in full bloom.  Moose and deer are being spotted on the side of the roads on a regular basis.  We had a moose and deer hanging out in our cove just yesterday.  Lots of small game are also out and about enjoying the beautiful weather!  Our waterfront is alive with ducks and geese in the cove showing off their babies.  Loons are also parading with their babies on their back making their beautiful music.  These all make for great photo opportunities!

Attention Fishermen:  May 1st marked the start of open water fishing for Moosehead Lake and other bodies of water.  The water is warming up and fish activity is increasing.  You can see them jumping out of the water in the cove and around the docks.  Guests have been quite successful right from shore. 

Water is being released from the East Outlet of the Kennebec River.  It is currently running about 2500 CFS keeping fish in the River making for excellent July fly fishing.  The East Outlet is now open all year for fly-fishing only!  Walk right out your cottage door over to the River for some of the best fly-fishing!  For daily water releases, call 1-800-557-3569 or give us a call at 1-800-817-2549 to make your reservation!   Small mouth bass fishing is also great down at Indian Pond.

Hunters:  We have packages that range from lodging only to complete guided packages with meals.  Plan ahead for this fall for grouse, woodcock, moose and deer hunting.

ATV Riding:  Reminder: You must be on marked ATV trails or have written landowner permission!  Please respect the landowners.  Club trails start at the end of our driveway.  We have gas on-site for your convenience.  TRAIL UPDATE: The northbound trails to Rockwood and on to Jackman and Canada; along with a trail to Pittston Farm is complete!  The new trail across Greenville from the Junction accessing the great gift shops and restaurants is open.  Make your reservations to stay with us for some great ATV riding opportunities!
