A planned community that sprung to life between Baxter State Park and Bangor at the turn of the Century, Millinocket is a healthy center of commerce and production sitting comfortably on the west branch of the Penobscot River. Millinocket is one of the last major stop-overs to be found before entering the wilder northern reaches of natural Maine. Recently Millinocket has enjoyed national attention thanks to the Discovery Channel series AMERICAN LOGGERS - a weekly hour-long show focused on Pelletier Bros. Inc., one of Maines most enduring and successful logging businesses.
