Gorman Chairback Lodge & Cabins
About this site
Built as a private camp in 1867, Gorman Chairback Lodge & Cabins is a spectacular respite in the heart of Maine's 100-Mile Wilderness. Located on AMC's conservation land by the shore of Long Pond, Gorman Chairback offers a central location for a myriad of outdoor activities. Hearty, homemade meals, friendly staff, and cozy private cabins prepare you for hikes to Gulf Hagas and Third Mountain, a lodge-to-lodge cross-country ski, or a day of shoreside relaxation on Long Pond. The newly renovated main lodge features expansive sunset views, a cozy living room with wood stove, and a family-style dining room. Guests in the winter have access to 35 miles of groomed cross-country ski and snowshoe trails around the lodge. The lodge-to-lodge trail network is groomed and offers full-day adventures replete with magnificent views and moose tracks. A shuttle service is available, and a gear shuttle transports your luggage to your destination so you can ski or snowshoe with just a day pack. Complimentary snowshoes are available. Additional Info: Full-service season: January 8 – March 7, 2026 and June 11 – October 17, 2026. Amenities include canoes, kayaks, paddleboards, showers, meals included, wood-fired sauna, and snowshoes. Dogs are welcome in winter only.
