Welcome to Winthrop

It would be safe to say that if there were a “water world” in Maine, Winthrop would be a top contender for the title! An amazingly beautiful town that is surrounded by accessible water for its residents and visitors alike is definitely greatly appreciated by those who love the outdoors. In fact, Cobbossee Lake has gained accolades nationally as one of America’s best lakes to fish! In addition to the water, Winthrop gives one a glimpse of what one of Maine’s perfect, small towns looks like. It is perfectly located between larger urban, service centers so its people and visitors alike can enjoy activities and events all around as well as right next door!
