Regional Information
The Belgrade area boasts a chain of seven pristine lakes. Each is unique and beautiful in its own way. La Posa is located on Long Pond sandwiched between two quiet and charming villages. Belgrade, located between Long Pond and Great Pond is a lively little community with many fine restaurants, artisan craft shops and antique stores. Day's Country store sells food items, meats, sandwiches, toiletry items, crafts, souvenirs and, of course, lives, fresh, Maine lobster. It is accessible by boat or by car. Mt. Vernon, located only four miles from La Posa, has a country store and hardware store, charming shops and a small cafe. It also has a quiet swimming hole. La Posa is located about 1 hour 15 minutes from Portland, and 20 minutes from Augusta, Waterville and Farmington.
