2021 Map of Friendship

About this map

Friendship serves as a central hub for this coastal Maine landscape, where the irregular granite shoreline of Muscongus Bay meets the deep waters of the Meduncook River. The 2021 topography reveals a community shaped by maritime geography, from the busy waters of Friendship Harbor to the outlying reaches of Friendship Long Island. Numerous burial grounds, including the Old Village Cem and Harbor Cem, provide valuable geographic markers for genealogists tracing local families. To the east, the peninsula narrows toward Port Clyde, a historic gateway where the mainland ends at Marshall Point. The map captures the density of private roads and lanes like Maple Juice Ln and Smugglers Cove Rd, reflecting the long-standing transition of these coastal points from traditional fishing outposts to residential and seasonal settlements while maintaining the navigational landmarks of the Saint George River.
