Natural Beauty

On his first visit to Mt. Katahdin in 1846, Henry David Thoreau wrote, "It's difficult to conceive of a region uninhabited by man. We habitually presume his presence and influence everywhere . . . But here not even the surface had been scarred by man, but it was a specimen of what God saw fit to make this world."

Not much has changed in the past 160 years.

Simply put, the Katahdin Region is a very special place. Mother Nature has blessed us with an abundance of natural beauty; crystal clear lakes, lush forests, magnificent mountains and powerful rivers.

Small communities. Friendly people. Clean environment. No traffic. No crowds. No rat race. Abundant wildlife. Endless recreational opportunities.
