Summer on the lake embodies a timeless appeal that captivates us all. Photographer Richard Schultz spent part of last summer documenting the beauty of the landscape and the generations of families who call Maine’s famed Sebago Lake home.

Very nice piece. Having spent more than 65 summers looking west over the Dingley Islands and watching the annual Wohelo 4th of July Boat Parade, I can really appreciate your fine pictures.
In the July/Aug issue of Yankee, the Sebago article and pics were great! I haven’t read Yankee Magazine in a few years (what was I thinking!). A few weeks ago I picked up the magazine to give to my sister to read during her recuperation from surgery. Recently, she returned the magazine to me and I’ve finally found the time to read it. When I saw the article on Sebago lake I couldn’t wait to read it because we own a cottage on Sebago. Much to my surprise, the picture on page 94 of the signs on the tree has our name on it. How lucky was I to pick up the issue with the Sebago article. We bought our “camp” 10 years ago and have turned it into a lovely cottage. We truly love Sebago lake and have a deep respect for keeping it clean and beautiful. We often refer to our cottage as the “Sebago Sanctuary”. We have many fond memories of time spent with family and friends! I’m hooked on Yankee and sending in my subscription!
Fabulous photos – made me ache for a visit. Thanks so much for sharing them!
The pictures are so beautiful and really define the “spirit” and feeling of Maine in the summer.
I am so homesick!
But to grow up living in Maine is something you just can’t buy.
Thank you for the pictures.
Where does the Wohelo Camp name come from? Any relation to Camp Fire Girls? (of which I was a member many years ago)
Great pictures. Brings back alot of great memories when my family would visit my Aunt and Uncle who had a cottage at the lake. I remember camping up there when they first landed on the moon. Thanks for bringing back the flash backs
