Nice place. This is my first time there. The stairs leading to the water need work so exercise caution. Looks like a great place to fish from a boat, especially if there has been sufficient rain all season to keep the water level up. On our next trip there we will explore the bank on the other side of the bridge.

Its so beautiful! Really neat to see! Highly recommend!

Small peaceful, the sound bridge makes as vehicles pass throughout & rope swings

Amazing swimming hole for the whole family. Clean and serene this spot is beautiful. Equipt with 3 or 4 rope swings. And a shallow area for the kids.

This place has been my goto place as a young boy with my dad and brothers and friends, I have been going here for years and years, its got good jump points, rope swings, sitting spot for youngins, and a good current, so it keeps it from being Stagnant, Love This place, Lots of memories!!!

Very good replica of the old covered bridges.

Easy access, two car parking lot, or you can park on the side of the road. Make shift steps down to the edge of the river. Rocks are very slippery, so I suggest entering the water to the right through the sandy shallow area. There are a handful of ropes hanging from different spots on the bridge. Current is a little strong, so not very suitable for people who cant actually swim. There is a shallow spot that goes out like 10 feet, shallow enough for children around 5-10 years old, then it drops off. Overall a great spot to swim!

This is a cool covered bridge in Gorham Maine, very nice spot .

Clean family/ kid friendly atmosphere. Plenty of jumps and rope swings for everyones enjoyment. Please be respectful and keep this area nice for future fun.

Covered bridge and a swimming hole with swinging ropes.Be careful of rocks under the surface!

This is a nice car stop at the covered bridge. It’s essentially a small parking area next to the bridge which goes over the river. There isn’t any fancy structure to climb or trails to go on. The bridge however is nice to walk across, look down from or take pictures of spanning across the river. The sun is usually favorable to lighting the bridge around midday. There is a small spot to go down to the river on the opposite side from the parking area.

Great swimming hole, there are a few ropes I saw kids swinging from. Not much parking, but a great spot to swim on a hot day.

Fun local swimming hole. Can get crowded on hot days. Rope swings on the downstream side and open area on the upstream side.

Excellent swimming hole on the river with a bridge in excellent condition.

Pristine area, for swimming or fishing or hiking

The swings there are really tall and awesome

Nice place to bring small group of friends and make a picnic at

Swing ropes or jump off the bridge into the lake.this have it all

One of the best swimming holes around! Can get crowded, especially on weekends and hot days. People should be aware that 1) there are turtle nests, please be careful! and 2) the area is frequently monitored by police, and there is a no alcohol rule from them that isnt posted. Also, it is open to public access during the day but considered trespassing after dark.

Quintessential New England experience. So quiet and peaceful; fun to walk through a piece of history.

Its great fun for the kids

Nice spot to swim.. Not much parking

Babbs Bridge is a covered bridge spanning the Presumpscot River on Hurricane Road, between the towns of Gorham and Windham in Cumberland County, Maine. Built in 1976, it is a replica of a 19th-century bridge that stood on the site until destroyed by fire in 1973.

God I love this place! My go to place to meditate when Im stressed.

Beautiful place!

One of our favorite swimming holes! kids love the rope swing and jumping from the bridge. bridge jumping is actually not allowed

Beautiful, peaceful spot

A beautiful mid-October day!

Great colorful scenery, leaves are bursting with fall colors.

Great covered bridge visted with a group of covered bridge friends

Place is beautiful be nice if tourist could keep it that way

Great place to swim, with an awesome rope swing. Parking is limited on a hot summer day, but worth it.

The kids love to come and swim here however sometimes the company is not appropriate for my children.

Such a sweet place to see! The bridge appears to be in great shape. Such a quiet area, a beautiful spot.

Love this spot!! Great place to take a swim or go for a nature walk! We visit it very often, especially on those hot summer days when you just need to cool off a little!

This place is a small taste to heaven its absolutely beautiful and hold many very dear memories to me

Swim, fish do whatever you want

Great swimming hole if your looking for a local spot

Go check it out if you are in the area. There are some rope swings too!

Nice covered bridge. Excellent place to kayak and fish. There are no parking signs around the bridge but people park there anyway as its easy to do so and not be in the road. Legally, Im not sure if its okay.

Beautiful old classic covered bridge still in daily use.

Love going for a swim there! Also features great nature walk trails as well!

Fun,, old timey covered bridge,, safe

Quiet. Calm. Water was refreshing.

Absolutely beautiful bridge and river

Came back home for a vacation and had to come and see the renovation of the bridge..took pictures and looked all around remembering when I used to bring my boys here to swim in the icy, cold,clear water.. happy to see some of the original boards on the inside

Great fishing

Scenic View

Nice old fashion bridge just dont try to go across with a big vehicle

I had fun

Babbs Bridge is a fun little spot, well-known by some and hidden from most. Its a 1976 replica of a 19th century covered bridge. There are some small trails along the edge of the Presumpscot, shallow rocks and sand for wading, and a rope swing for the adventurous. A note of caution: while most drivers are careful when crossing the bridge, be careful and courteous when walking through or near the bridge.

Very nice bridge. Great restoration job.

This is a beautiful place, water and scenery is picturesque. BUT... The bridge closed and is under construction as of late September 2016.

Beautiful covered bridge. Peaceful rest area.

I love how they cleaned it up and refinished.

Worth the visit

Beautiful

Great place!
