"Dexter is a small rural community with beautiful lakes. You will find all the conveniences though that the big towns have. There are two supermarkets, several gas stations & convenience stores. A rite-aid pharmacy, a Dunkin donuts, a Reny's departments store, several top notch doctors, restuarants, your local hardware store and an excercise gym. Police and fire are just minutes away. A great new school and lots of community events. For the younger crowd there are a couple nightlife choices."

"Everything is close by from Dunkin Donuts to Walmart. So plenty of shopping. You are just 20 minutes from two community hospitals, and only 45 minutes to Bangor. Tons of lakes & ponds for swimming, fishing and boating are all within minutes of this property. Several snow mobile and four wheeling trails are also just minutes away. They just recently built a new middle school and the local high school offers lots of activities. It's a great community with several community events each year."
