Maine Forest and Logging Museum

Thank you for asking. The grounds are still pretty icy right now. Usually the volunteers don't start opening buidings up until late March to early April. It depends on the condition of the roads. It was reported that a couple of days ago, the road in was mostly glare ice, with some clear spots that were becoming soft. Once the roads are clear and dried out, then the volunteers will be on site and the buildings will be opened for exploring as they get them ready for our events which will be starting up in May. Tuesdays are volunteer workdays, with work on the grounds being done from about 9am to 2pm. Check out our events on our website at: https://www.maineforestandloggingmuseum.org/events

Thank you for asking, Nancy. We do sleigh rides when the conditions are right for it. There has to be enough snow and no ice along the rails and the road in has to be passable. We will announce on our website and on Facebook when we have them planned.

Service dogs only are welcome on the property. There are ample walking areas on the nearby Penobscot Experimental Forest. Just continue on past the Visitors Center and there are miles of scenic road that can be walked. (I am a MFLM Board member)

Thank you for asking. We do not allow dogs--other than registered service animals--on our property. We do that in ensure that all of our guests enjoy their visit. Our policy was put into effect after a guest was bitten by a dog on our property. We also depend on volunteers to maintain the grounds and do not want to add to their work. You may walk your dog along the Government Road--the dirt road that comes in from Route 178.

The show for this summer was at 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.today July 24 They had several demos for their guests. Including a ride on the Lombard log hauler. I would recommend anyone to visit this site especially during their events. Keep a eye on their internet site for the date and time of their events. Wayne

They are hoping to.

I cannot answer your question but if you go to the website and there you will find a way to send an email. Sherry will direct you to someone who knows and directed the restoration.

You can wander about any day, but it's more interesting when they ate having an event.
