Just an hour above Portland, Lincoln County is an appealing collection of small towns set in a remarkable landscape. The coastal communities of Waldoboro, Damariscotta, Boothbay Harbor and Wiscasset are the service centers where residents and visitors go for shopping, medical care, professional services and cultural activities.

Lincoln County is a vital and beautiful place, with population growth, employment growth, and retail sales all outpacing Maine's average. A 1998 State Planning Office study cited Boothbay Harbor, Damariscotta, and Wiscasset as three of Maine's healthiest service centers as rated by community growth, vibrant economy, and community well-being.
