Home to a vast and wonderful collection of works by Cushing's very own Wyeth family (Andrew, Jamie, and N.C.). You'll also find other great exhibits by Maine and non-Maine artists.
Center for Maine Contemporary Art
No surprises here--you will find contemporary art by Maine artists.
Cafe Miranda
A favorite for large, tasty meals, delicious bread, a very wonderful energy, cool salt and pepper shakers, an Elvis bathroom, among other wonders.
Oyster River Winegrowers
Local wine in a lovely meadowed setting!
Camden Hills State Park
The park has dozens of terrific hikes, many with unbeatable views of the coast.

Check out the beautiful trails maintained by the GRLT. Personal favorites: Pleasant Point Nature Preserve: backs up to our house! Mossy magnificence! Cross Cushing Preserve: A mossy wonderland with access to the serene Meduncook River George's Highland Path (Thomaston): A long, splendid trail through mossy groves and pine woods Langlais Sculpture Garden (Cushing): A strange and worthwhile sculpture garden Ragged Mountain Preserve (Rockport): Climb up a wooded mountain for magnificent views of the coast
