User input for West Pond, York County, Maine:
Gary Calabrese: West Pond is a truly special place, in the foothils of Mr. Washington. As you approach the pond from the South on Rt. 160, you are met by a breathtaking view of Mt. Washington which is 40 miles away. The water in west pond is crystal clear, and you can often hear the loons. There is a large area around the pond that is protected in tree growth, so the pond will never face additional stress of building. There is also no public access for boats, and that keeps it quiet and free of the kind of noise and congestion you see in popular lakes elsewhere.

Shawnee Peak is a nice place to do that, and paddling on Ossipee River is so much fun. This lake is so wonderful. The slopes of King Pine are so inviting noone can resist, and if you came for an overnight stay River Run Canoe Rental and Camping is a magnificent spot to camp.

Mountain Inn is a great location to get some rest. Lakes are such peaceful places, why not visit Spruce Pond close to West Pond, and you can distinguish Bickford Hill from West Pond. There are other places here than West Pond, for example Long Pond; glide down the rapids of Little Ossipee River in a kayak.
