Lake Wesserunsett is probably best known for being the home of Lakewood Theater. The Lakewood Resort and Inn opened as America's first summer theater in 1901. It served as a tryout location for many productions destined for Broadway. Steam powered passenger boats would connect with trolley cars in nearby towns to bring visitors to the resort which offered recreation, camping, and tourist bungalows in addition to the theater. The Maine State Legislature designated Lakewood as the State Theater of Maine in 1967. Summer visitors to Lakewood can still catch a show, enjoy fine dining, or play a round of golf on the shores of this state treasure.
