Now, you may feel that's lots but there's even more cool stuff to do here at Ben Gile Pond. Going for a hike on the Piazza Rock Trail is always a delightful adventure, and golf can be played at Evergreen Golf Club & Golf School.

I've been visiting Bugeye Pond for as long as I've been alive as my family owns one of the two camps on it and I've always found it to be a very pristine and relaxing place. Aside from snowmobile noise in the winter and traffic on route 27, I would have to say it is the most gorgeous place in Maine. As for the fishing, I haven't been there since I actually began fishing so I can't really attest to that. My parents were up there this past weekend and said there were people on the pond all weekend long, but they never saw anybody land a brookie despite the abundant rises....
