Presque Isle

Presque Isle is the commercial and cultural hub of Aroostook County — The County — Maine’s vast northern frontier. Set amid rolling potato fields and bordered by the Aroostook River, Presque Isle is a welcoming small city with an authentic Maine character that’s increasingly rare. The University of Maine at Presque Isle anchors a surprisingly active arts and events scene, while the surrounding landscape offers world-class snowmobiling, hunting, fishing, and ATV riding. In summer, the region’s farm stands overflow with some of the finest produce in the state.
