Luxury Homes and Lifestyle in Georgetown, ME: one of coastal Maine’s best kept secrets

Georgetown is a town located on an island accessible by car from the mainland that lies between the Gulf of Maine and the mouths of the Kennebec and Sheepscot Rivers.  The town incorporates the six villages of Georgetown, Five Islands, Marrtown, Baypoint, Robinhood, and West Georgetown that are home to people from all walks of life including fishermen, boat builders, retirees, artists, and summer residents.  From boating to beaching to water’s edge fine dining, there is something for everyone in this well kept secret of a town.

Charming and rare attractions

Georgetown’s undisputed most popular destination is Reid State Park.  Large sand dunes and wide sandy beaches are hard to comeby in Maine, so it is evident why visitors flock to this one of a kind state park.   The miles of trails made for hiking, biking, and skiing, allow visitors to witness working lighthouses, wildlife, historic communities.  If the beach is too cold, relax in the warmer waters of the tidal lagoon.  

Other waterfront attractions on the island include the Five Islands Lobster Co., Robinhood Marina, and much more.  Looking for something to do inland?  Visit Georgetown Pottery where you can shop for one of a kind china or at Five Islands Farm where you can bring home an authentic souvenir.
