Make the hinterland woods and pristine lakes of the White Mountain National Forest your playground when you stay in this village on Maine’s western border.

Stoneham is small town sprawled across a stretch of lakeside woodlands that backs directly onto an enormous tract of protected wilderness. Discover the natural splendor of the White Mountain National Forest on your doorstep and explore the preserve’s mountain lakes, crystal-clear streams, heritage landmarks and vast network of trails. Indulge your senses at a wilderness retreat in Stoneham and relax in the pristine surroundings.

Sparsely populated and tucked into some of Maine’s most magnificent greenery, Stoneham is in a truly secluded corner of the state. Buckle up in your car or lace up your hiking boots and get ready to start exploring the region’s outdoors. The edges of Stoneham are bordered by two stunning lakes: Virginia and Keewaydin. Laze on sandy beaches and take a dip in the clear waters. Go boating and enjoy views of the pine-studded fringes of the shore. Join a sunset cruise or go stargazing after nightfall to experience the breathtaking array of constellations visible from this pristine part of the world. Hike up Speckled Mountain to be rewarded with excellent views west across the rolling hills of green.

Venture further north into the depths of the White Mountain National Forest. This 800,000-acre (323,750-hectare) expanse of protected forest sprawls over the New Hampshire border and can be explored by car, on horseback, by bicycle or on foot. Choose from the network of hiking trails or go on a zip-line adventure through the treetops. Antiques stores, picturesque covered bridges and heritage locomotives tell the story of pioneering days in these wild woods. In winter, go skiing through the region’s breathtaking backcountry trails or snowshoe your way up the mountain peaks.

Stoneham is situated on Maine’s western border, approximately 1.5-hours’ drive northwest from Portland and its international airport. Rent a lakeside lodge for the whole family to enjoy or treat yourself to a rejuvenating stay at a wilderness retreat. The town is a four-season vacation destination. Enjoy the warm, sunny summers, make the most of the winter wonderland of ski trails and horse-drawn sleigh rides or experience the many hues of the New England fall foliage.
