Your 2024 guide to Caribou Maine

[@toetag434]

The wife and I are "relocators" (planned before covid). We've been in Caribou near 5 years. This area is incredible. We are out with our doggo every weekend enjoying the trails. The outdoor activities are amazing. (kayaking, hiking, camping). Next summer, we'll start building on our property in Fort Fairfield. This community has been gracious and friendly. There has not been a single regret moving 800 miles north.

That is awesome! The Fort is a great town to live in (I live here). We have the best neighbors! My wife grew up here.

My friend, you have brought tears to my eyes. I transferred from the US Coast Guard Alameda, CA, in 1986 to The USCG LORAN-C Station in Caribou. Of the eight years and four months of my enlistment, Caribou has a special place in my heart, my best tour of duty. How much Caribou has grown, but it is still a lovely place to be. I left Caribou on the last day of my USCG career, January 13, 1989. I visited Maine a few times after for business (a judge’s protective detail) while in the Marshals Service. As I said before, I am waiting for my wife of 43 years, an outstanding woman; she has endured military life and law enforcement life, so we can finally retire in the state that we love so much. Brother, I cannot thank you enough for this video. Best regards, and stay safe. 🙏

I live for comments like yours. Thank-you for the edification. If you ever get up here let me know, I will buy you a Tim Hortons coffee and you can teach me how to say, "ferrocarril," correctly. Thank-you for your service.

I grew up in Caribou and graduated in the late 90s. I moved downstate in 2001 and the older I get, the more I miss it. Hopefully one day I can move back.

[@TheseMaineTowns]

I hope so too. Thank you for watching.

[@georgeschroeder736]

Thanks for the video, just moved to Caribou 3 weeks ago and I love it!

[@lesliec.9241]

My hometown, born and raised there. I still go there every couple of months since family is still there. Love that place. Great video.

[@TheseMaineTowns]

Best potatoes! Great people. And, safe. Love it.

I go to Caribou for vacation every summer and winter, and I come all the way from Florida, but I love this town

[@konasteph]

Time kind'a stands still here in many places in Maine. I have lived in Machias, for over 10 years now and I did notice, sadly, that many businesses close, replaced by dollar stores, and I found out the Dollar Tree is better than some others, and wouldn't you know it, they skeedaddled also a couple years ago. Luckily, lobsters are more fun than Spuds or Brussel sprouts, so we do get the tourists again, after covid, as undoubtedly you guys in Caribou get the same summer tourist uptick, the camping and fishing and canoeing folks, I send you my greetings and hope for a future, where people from the rest of the USA will love to just sit in a green forest or a meadow, and enjoy cool summers as those are in decline in much of the US. Take care!

[@TheseMaineTowns]

Thank you for watching and the insights.

[@ILuvRum]

Isn't there a dog park on N River Rd, in Fort Fairfield too?

[@TheseMaineTowns]

The River Side park is on the north side of the river as you cross the bridge.

[@jb-x0]

That is a beautiful video. We own a property in Caribou area, is it possible to get a similar video for our property?

[@TheseMaineTowns]

Thanks for asking. I wish I had the time to do such requests. Hands are way too full.

[@santhiagosmoove4945]

What restaurant are you referring to?

[@drumwitch4585]

Can you see the eclipse there

[@TheseMaineTowns]

Yes.

[@xaelun]

Love this town so much. Just small-towny enough but just urban enough.

[@TheseMaineTowns]

Couldn’t agree more. Thank you for watching.
