I was surprised with a scenic tour for my birthday and Tony made it a truly memorable experience!…read moreHe flew us over the Penobscot River which we had just rafted and went out of his way to find moose for us to see even though it wasn't the best time of the year to spot them. I cannot express enough what a wonderful experience this was and how much I appreciate Tony's knowledge, enthusiasm and kindness! If you're planning a trip to Millinocket, this is an amazing way to see the beautiful scenery of the region!

Zach with Wild Ferns Guide Service delivered an incredible Maine fishing trip friendly,…read moreknowledgeable, and fully dedicated to making it memorable. We caught our limit of landlocked salmon and even landed 18-19 inch smallmouth bass, all while learning valuable techniques and using top notch gear. Beyond the fishing, Zach went above and beyond with great food, a trip to Boon's Island, and genuine hospitality. As a veteran, I deeply appreciate his generosity and commitment this was one of the best guided trips I've ever had. He also has a badass personality. We were completely laughing 75 percent of the trip. He randomly paused got up and said " we are about to get bit I've felt this before" and he wasn't wrong from that point we were pulling in hogs 30 seconds in! My therapist suggested getting out doors into fishing and hunting because I'm up here in Maine. Fishing has completely changed my life and I want to thank Zach for being a complete badass and heck yea!

We had the fantastic opportunity to go on a dogsledding tour with Angel and Don a few weeks ago…read more They were kind enough to meet us at our hotel so we didn't get lost and could follow them back to their home. Once we got there, we were introduced to all of their wonderful dogs. There were so many of them and they were SO excited!! We played around with all the dogs for a bit while Don was feeding them a little snack before the run, and Angel was making sure we all had plenty of layers on to keep warm. Our group of four really had no idea what to expect with this tour. We thought that maybe we would be sitting in a basket on the dogsled while our guide mushed the dogs. Not the case at all. We mushed our own teams of dogs for miles and miles...and it was amazing! They hitched up two teams of dogs, we were given a crash course on intermediate mushing, two of us hopped on the back of our own dogsleds, and off we went! The two people mushing their sleds followed Don and Angel on a snowmobile and the other two people stood on the back of the sled attached to the snowmobile, which was actually pretty fun in itself! After mushing about 10-12 miles, we made our way back to their home to switch out new teams of dogs to give them a chance to run, and the other two in our group got their turn to mush another 10-12 miles. The girls in our group were a little chilly after the first run out, and Angel gave us warmer boots, gloves and jackets to wear so we stayed nice and toasty. During our tour, we went around lakes, over bridges, and through the woods. Don and Angel were so attentive to us the entire time, sensing when we needed a little help, always making sure to give us additional instructions when needed or to guide the sleds through a tough spot for us, and communicated very well with each other as well as their guests. Our experience with Don and Angel really made us feel like were actually a part of this amazing sport. Their dogs are so special and well cared for, and boy, do they love to run! This tour far surpassed our expectations, and we are already talking about booking an overnight tour next year (now that we're professional mushers). ;-) Go see Don and Angel and experience an amazing winter adventure!

I've been coming to the Nahmakanta Lake Camps for the last 20 years as a guest of Don and Angel…read moreHibbs. I began my love affair with this piece of Paradise, 51 yrs. Ago. These camps are the real deal for families, fishermen/women and anyone else who wants to experience the Maine Wilderness. The cabins are immaculate, bright and cheery and very well maintained. For those who want to prepare their own meals each one has a kitchen with all the utensils you need, a gas stove and a refrigerator. In front of each cabin there is a fire ring on the rocky beach where guests can enjoy an evening fire and comradery and listen to the calls of the resident loons. Scrumptious and filling home cooked breakfasts and dinners are served in the main lodge. I've walked out of that beautiful dining area that takes one back in time with tasteful décor and furniture in a true log cabin style, filled to the brim with some of the finest gastronomic fare I've ever tasted. The fishing is great as is the hiking on the numerous trails leading from camp and there is no lack of scenery in the area. Moose are a common sight in the remote trout ponds and on the lake as well as beaver, deer and loons. The brook trout are some of the prettiest in Maine and togue fishing on the lake can produce some good sized fish. Owners Don and Angel Hibbs are remarkable hosts. They do their best to accommodate everyone and they take care of any problem/requests immediately and are not intrusive. They run a tight ship and the atmosphere is peaceful and friendly. Don knows the country intimately, is a Licensed Master Maine Guide and catches as many fish as the best of them. If you are looking to spend quality outdoor time or just want to relax in a tranquil wilderness setting, the Nahmakanta Lake Camps are the best bang for your buck. I know I've been going there since I was 9 yrs. old.

You can spend a good amount of time in here looking at Agate's and tumbled stone of every color of the rainbow. The prices are a steal in my opinion. My hubby bought me a beautiful fluorite pendant. You could be in here for quite a while, so much to look at. I also noticed they had Llamas, goats & sheep outside. My husband's father goes here quite often and says they always have something new.
