Just a one-hour drive northwest of Portland’s coastline, Thompson Lake lies in the Lakes & Mountains tourism region of southern Maine. Located at the intersection of Oxford, Androscoggin and Cumberland counties, Thompson Lake will lure you in with its charming communities and diverse countryside.
Thompson Lake offers some of the best salmon, lake trout (togue), and bass fishing in the state.
The water level of Thompson Lake is controlled by the Robinson Mill Dam, a 150+ year old structure that lies at the outlet of the lake at its northern terminus, in the town of Oxford.
