Golf in Oakland

Oakland is a Kennebec County community on the shores of Messalonskee Lake, closely associated with Waterville to the south on the Messalonskee Stream. The lake is one of the more active recreational bodies of water in central Maine, providing fishing, boating, and swimming access that supplements the broader Waterville area's cultural offerings. Colby College, across the Kennebec in Waterville, gives the broader area an intellectual vitality and arts scene unusual for a Maine city of its size — the Colby College Museum of Art is among the finest in New England. Waterville Country Club, located here in Oakland despite its name, draws from the broader central Maine population base across the rolling terrain between Messalonskee Lake and the Kennebec Valley.
