    A Perfect Historic Experience

    Rangeley has such a rich logging history, this museum is not to be missed. It is easy to access and to park. The displays are so interesting - you'll want to spend all day reading letters loggers sent back home.

    A Look at What Made Maine

    If you want to understand Mainers, you need to take in this museum. Plan 1/2 hour to 45 minutes. There is a DVD to see and lots to look at.
