I was a Maineiac for quite a while but never went up to Moosehead. One thing I noticed is that tourists, especially those from "the big city," love the lakes - as long as they're not too far from 20-screen movie theaters, shopping malls, etc. I guess you can take the yuppie out of the city but you can't take the city out of the yuppie [:D] Anyway, I don't think you'll have to worry about typical tourists up there - just make sure to bring the best bug repellent you can find, and at least twice as much as you think you'll need LOL.
