List of lakes of Maine

The qualifications for this list of Maine lakes is that the lake is located partially or entirely in Maine, named, and has a surface area of more than 10 acres (40,000 m2).

This makes it legally a great pond unless it is dammed, smaller than 10 acres (40,000 m2) prior to damming, smaller than 30 acres (120,000 m2) afterwards, and entirely bounded by land owned by a single landowner.

There are also at least 1,022 named lakes too small to make this list.

Some lakes are located in, or border multiple counties; in these cases they are listed in the single county assigned to them in the primary reference for this list.

In some cases, alternative or former names of the lakes are given inside parentheses.
