CATHANCE LAKE is a large (over 3,000 acres) spring fed lake in the heart of the Downeast interior. Considered one of the premier lakes in the region, Cathance Lake is known for the quality of its water, and it’s landlocked salmon fishing; a substantial portion of the shoreline remains protected and undeveloped. The sound of loons characterize the lake, and the occasional bald eagle may be seen overhead. Cathance Lake is located on Route 191 - approximately 20 miles north of the historic coastal shiretown of Machias. Calais, Maine/ St. Stephen, NB, gateway to the Canadian Maritime provinces, is a 25 mile drive to the northeast.
