Discover Lincoln, Maine
Nestled in the heart of Maine, Lincoln boasts nearly 70 miles of shore frontage, 19 miles of river frontage, over 4,300 acres of water, and 22,000 acres of pristine woodland, making it one of the state’s best-kept secrets. No matter the season, outdoor adventure awaits, from boating and fishing to hiking and snowmobiling.
A charming New England town with roots in the pulp and paper industry, Lincoln serves as the service hub of northern Penobscot County. Its central location, regional airport, and 13 scenic lakes provide easy access to the great outdoors without sacrificing comfort or convenience. Even as it grows with new businesses and modern amenities, Lincoln still holds onto its unmistakable small-town charm. Whether you're exploring our vibrant downtown, enjoying local dining, or browsing unique shops, you'll find plenty of reasons to stay a little longer.
We look forward to welcoming you!
