Three Mile Pond

Three Mile Pond is a 1,175-acre lake located in Vassalboro, Kennebec County (also spanning into Windsor and China), offering public boat access via a dirt ramp. The pond features four small islands—Camp Island, Marsh Island, Shallow Island, and Overlook Island—providing scenic points of interest for paddlers and boaters. This is a popular spot for anglers and recreational boaters seeking access to a substantial Maine water body.

**What to Expect:** The boat ramp has a 10% slope descending to the water and features uneven dirt surface, so expect muddy conditions during wet weather and plan accordingly for launching kayaks, canoes, and larger boats. As a wildlife management area, there are no developed trails at the access site itself. Vehicles with trailers should be prepared for the steep slope and potentially slippery conditions. The pond's size makes it suitable for various paddling adventures, though paddlers should be aware of weather conditions on larger open water.
