Hodgdon

Welcome To Historic, Friendly Hodgdon, Maine!

How To Get Here

US RT 1 is the easiest way to access Hodgdon Maine. Straight shot for the most part north to south and you might come in using US RT 2A also called the Bangor Road. Because it was before the I-95 took over the bulk of th transportation chores. Years ago, paddling up the Mill Stream or on a horseback wood’s trail might have been your only option to getting to this township located south of Houlton Maine. But years ago, it was over the river and through the woods like the trip to Grandmother’s house. And the horse knew the way to … well you know the song lyrics. Everything was wooded, a location to start a new settlement in Hodgdon was near water for domestic use and to harness for a mill. And the long hard task of removing trees, the stumps that remain under them to create farm land to grow crops, raise animals on a Hodgdon farmstead.
