In the heart of the Rangeley Lakes region, Grant’s is Maine’s original fly fishing-only camp. Since 1905, we’ve been guiding serious fishermen - and their families - to some of the world’s finest native trophy brook trout, brown trout and landlocked salmon fishing on the peaceful Kennebago River and on beautiful Lake Kennebago, the largest fly-fishing only waters east of the Mississippi. Come unwind on the screened porch of Grant’s large, comfortable cabins on the lake. Enjoy three hearty meals a day, including lobster and pnme rib. There’s always plenty for the whole family to do, from nature hikes and wildlife photography to swimming and your own traditional Rangeley boat docked on the lake. Pets welcome.
