Thanks!
Yes, we did enjoy the Sebago/Songo/Brandy/Long trip, very much. We get out on Long Lake a couple of times a year (it's fun to go to Rick's Cafe on the causeway by boat) and go down the river into Sebago at least once per year. This year, we were able to get another Winnipesuakee boating family to pull out for the weeknd and join us on the trip.
It's so nice to be able to legally sleep on the hook and it's just terrible that NH has chosen to strip that experience away from folks. I love Winnipesaukee and always will, but it's got a bit of a snob factor that's missing in the Maine Lakes Region.
If anyone here likes going through Sally's Gut, you'll love the Songo River that connects Long Lake/Brandy Pond with Sebago Lake. It's like Sally's Gut x 50 and has a swing bridge and a lock to navigate. The river and lakes are well marked and one can make a wonderful day or weekend out of exploring that particular waterway. PM me if you want any details.
We've been going to Bridgton ME since 1989, but we stay on Highland Lake for the most part. We have some property up that way and intend to retire there. It's amazingly laid back and relaxing. Headed there for the weekend, as a matter of fact...
