Town of Naples Maine

Naples is one of the most picturesque small towns in western Maine. While neighboring Windham is often called the "Gateway to the Lakes Region", then Naples surely is the "Heart of the Lakes Region" with eight lakes and ponds falling within its borders. These clean and clear lakes include Sebago Lake, Long Lake, Brandy Pond, Trickey Pond, and Peabody Pond.

Summer visitors are drawn to the Causeway where they find lots of fun activities by day and spectacular sunsets, bustling nightlife, and restaurants and pubs by night. And no one should miss the chance to cruise Long Lake or travel through historic Songo Lock on a rented boat or cruise on the iconic Songo River Queen. Add in golf, hiking, biking, swimming and fishing and the active outdoor enthusiast will never lack for things to do in Naples

Local marinas provide many watercraft options for fun on the water. Enjoy over 40 continuous miles of boating in the region by going north the full distance of Long Lake to the village of Harrison or south through Brandy Pond, the Songo River and into the majestic Sebago Lake.  Explore Sebago Lake's many coves and islands, tie up at a local marina for gas and food, or fish to your heart's content.

Whatever the season, Naples abounds with energy. Summer visitors, seasonal residents and campers look forward to the annual Blues Festival in June, the 4th of July parade and fireworks, community band concerts at the gazebo, mini-golf, arcades, novelty stores, antique shops and ice cream parlors.  Fall brings leaf-peepers, hikers and nature lovers in search of brilliant foliage and clean, crisp air. For some, winter is best, with snowmobile rallies, ice fishing, and nearby skiing. If you're looking for a place to make lasting memories, Naples is a great destination!
