At a glance
Overview
Aroostook State Park was Maine's first state park, opened in 1939, with a small sandy swim area on Echo Lake below Quaggy Jo Mountain in Presque Isle. It is modest by Acadia or Sebago standards: a quiet northern-Maine day-use park with picnic areas, a campground, and short trails. Typical State Park day-use fees apply.
