 Belgrade Lakes Maine & Wings Hill Inn & Restaurant
Prior to our visit to Belgrade Lakes, Maine, I had done some homework pertaining to one of Maine’s best kept secrets and it was quite a revelation when I discovered that for many years well-known artists and writers had vacationed at this popular lakeside community including one of America’s most prominent playwrights, Eugene O’Neill.
During the 1920s Belgrade Lakes was a popular rendez-vous for the rich and famous, where they would travel by carriage and later by train with their steamer trunks to the Belgrade Depot, then seven miles by touring car to the village.
When a petition was drafted to create the new town in Maine it was this same John V. Davis who suggested the name of Belgrade be adopted, as he was probably still intensely impressed by the Belgrade he had known.
