Welcome to Steuben & Milbridge, Maine!
Steuben is the first town in Washington County, just 20
miles from Ellsworth. This peaceful coastal village, close to
everything, yet secluded from the hustle and bustle of everyday life,
was named after our forefather, George Washington and the town itself was named after Baron Von Steuben,
inspector general of the Continential Army during the Revolutionary War.
His home has been impeccably restored and sits on the top of a hill off of Route 1 across from the Parish house.
The village of Steuben is indeed documented in history books and in the
dictionary. It is a small village of talented artists, craftsmen,
writers and lobster fishermen. Off the village road which used to
be route 1 has a monumental village
green honoring war veterans and heros. Steuben also is famous for Petit Manan, a national
wildlife refuge named by Champlain. It was named such because it
reminded him of the island of Grand Manan in Florida. The beach at Roger's Point is
unique. You can walk the beaches on 3 sides at low tide and walk out onto
an island. The neighboring town, Milbridge is also historical and
provides shopping, dining and a historical movie theatre. |
