Water access directly from the site sets Myer's Lodge East apart from many free sites in the area. Set within Flagstaff State Park and managed by Maine Bureau of Parks and Lands, this drive-in site includes a fire ring, outhouse, and picnic table at no cost. The access road is rough, so drivers should plan accordingly. Cell service is available. Myer's Lodge West sits half a mile west for campers who want a comparable free alternative nearby.
Description
Located in western Maine just east of the village of Stratton about 40 miles north of Farmington, Bigelow Preserve includes over 36,000 acres of public land. The preserve encompasses the entire Bigelow Range, which includes seven summits. The highest of these at 4,150 feet is West Peak, one of only 10 Maine summits over 4,000 feet in elevation. Bounded on the north by 20,000-acre Flagstaff Lake, the preserve offers many opportunities for outdoor recreation. Flagstaff Lake is part of the Northern Forest Canoe Trail. The Northern Forest Canoe Trail is an historic 740-mile watertrail through New York, Vermont, Quebec, New Hampshire, and Maine. https://www.maine.gov/dacf/parksearch/PropertyGuides/PDF_GUIDE/bigelow-preserve-flagstaff-lake.pdf
