The Poland Springs Resort, A Bygone Treasure

Posted on April 7, 2009 by Andri Kyrychok

img_13511

I recently brought my family to the Poland Springs Park in Poland Springs, ME. The hill and area contained on top the said hill once had the wondorous Poland Springs Resort upon them. People from all walks of life from presidents to common men came to this spot to relax and drink in the “miraculous” waters contained there in. The resort is no longer there but the Maine House, a tourist mecca, is in the general spot where it once was. Here is the photo set from there and I encourage everyone as always to check out these great places.
