Come to beautiful Maine and see how it earns the nickname, Vacationland! Skowhegan is the jumping-off point to The North Woods, an outdoor recreation lover’s dream, with dozens of lakes and rivers, and scenic mountains. Winter snow provides a reliable base for many miles of groomed snowmobile and snowshoeing trails. Locals frequent Eaton Mountain (3 miles from the hospital) for skiing, snowboarding and sledding, or the big slopes of Sugarloaf Mountain, one of New England’s premier ski facilities, 40 miles away. In the summertime, enjoy the activities supported by the beautiful waterways throughout the region. Try some of the best trout fly-fishing in New England, or kayaking or white-water rafting, along with hiking and biking, golf, and camping. There is something here for everyone who loves the outdoors. Moose and bald eagle sightings are common here.
Skowhegan schools are highly rated, and your home options are varied. Choose a vintage Victorian home downtown, or a comfortable suburban place in a family-filled neighborhood, or a historic farmhouse with acreage to enjoy. You might purchase your own land, featuring woods, pastures or streams, and build your dream house.
Skowhegan is located on the picturesque Kennebec River, which once powered local industry. The rolling hills of southern Somerset County mark an area rich in history, boasting a vibrant economy. The Skowhegan State Fair brings fun and food to town each August, with everything from a petting zoo to a Demolition Derby. Surrounding communities offer art, theatre, gyms, children’s programs, unique restaurants and more – making this a terrific place to raise a family. Skowhegan is 30 minutes north of the popular college town of Waterville (home to prestigious Colby College), and 60 minutes west of Bangor, Maine’s third largest city, with an international airport, a respected children’s museum, a casino/hotel, summer music and arts festivals on the riverfront, and more. It’s only 1 hour from Maine's spectacular coast, and 90 minutes from Portland, with hundreds of restaurants, theaters, a symphony orchestra, semi-pro sports, the International Jetport, and the high-energy Old Port district of shops and nightclubs. Skowhegan is 3.5 hours from Boston, and 3 hours from Quebec, Canada.
