Overview
The Town of Weston is located at the southeastern edge of Aroostook County, Maine, in the United States of America. Though physically in the Aroostook County boundaries, the community actually shares more cultural similarities with the Down East region than with the Aroostook Valley, particularly through the influence of the Town of Danforth located immediately to the south.
Along both the northbound and the southbound directions of United States Route 1, scenic turnouts exist labeled “Million Dollar View” turnouts, referring to the scenic transitions of the Upper Saint Croix to the east, the Down East to the south, the Aroostook Valley to the north, and a possible faint view of Mount Katahdin to the west. The First Settlers Lodge is located across the highway from the southbound scenic turnout, and Rideout’s Lodge and Cottages at Butterfield Landing is located along the Davenport Cove relatively nearby to the community of Pemberton Ridge, New Brunswick, Canada 🇨🇦.
