Oakfield
is a small town located in Aroostook County, which is situated in the northeast corner of the state. Aroostook County is 89 percent forestland with many lakes, state parks, rivers and streams - a place known for its' exciting outdoor sporting opportunities. Hunting is a popular activity here due to the heavily wooded areas. Other activities include fishing, hiking and biking, canoeing, white water rafting and sledding and skiing in wintertime. The area is also great for birdwatching and wildlife viewing - keep your eyes peeled for eagles, osprey, beavers, ducks and moose. Nearby Island Falls is the site of a popular yoga retreat, and the town of Houlton is the county seat for Aroostook County and offers many shopping opportunities and great restaurants. Many fairs and festivals are held in the region throughout the year including the Meduxnekeag River Canoe Race in April and the Houlton Arts & Crafts Fair in July. Oakfield is located in what Maine residents call "The Country," a secluded area with some of the most breathtaking scenery any time of the year, but especially with the changing leaves of fall and the snow-covered landscape of winter.

Maine's Northeast corner has four seasons and the weather is highly changeable -- it can go from sunny to stormy in short order. Summers near the Canadian border are cool, with highs in the 70s or sometimes reaching the low 80s. Interior areas experience a greater range of temperatures in the summer, but some nights in northern areas are still near freezing. Winters in Maine are cold - sometimes even frigid. January temperatures range from 11 to 31 F along the coast and 1 to 19 F inland. The snow is lovely, and if you aren't opposed to cold weather, wintertime is a great time to visit Maine. Continuous snow is generally on the ground from December through February and sometimes into March. Daytime highs gradually increase March through May. In September, the spectacular colors of fall blaze and sunny days and cool nights characterize this favorite season of many in Maine.
