Property
Woodbury Shores is in the Town of Litchfield that is located 16 miles southwest of Augusta in southern Kennebec County. The current estimate of population (in 2003) is 3,317.
Early settlement of the town began before the Revolutionary War and occurred around the ponds, lakes and streams. In 1793, the town was organized as a political entity as Smithfield Plantation, and in 1795, the Plantation successfully petitioned the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and became incorporated as the Town of Litchfield.
As early as the 1900 hundreds travelers would arrive by a trolley line from Lewiston, Maine. Once there they would enjoy the water and the grounds, have dinner at the Tacoma Inn, then return by trolley at end end of the day. As the years progressed the property was developed into summer rentals. The Marsella family purchased the property in 1972 and has maintained and developed the property to its current status.
