Arundel blends coastal access with countryside calm, offering tree-lined back roads, working farms, and quick convenience along Route 1. Weekend adventures are effortless: sandy shores and standout dining await in nearby Kennebunk and Kennebunkport, while the revitalized mills, galleries, and eateries of Biddeford add a dose of creative energy. Commuters and day-trippers appreciate its central spot in York County, and residents value responsive local services through the Town of Arundel.
Families are drawn to the strong public schools in RSU 21, where Arundel’s own Mildred L. Day School anchors early learning with community-driven events, outdoor exploration, and arts enrichment. Older students benefit from wide-ranging academics, competitive athletics, and coastal field study opportunities through district offerings.
Free time in Arundel presents plenty of character. Catch an intimate concert at the barn-turned-stage of the Vinegar Hill Music Theatre, tour vintage beauties at the Maine Classic Car Museum, or play a round at local fairways like Dutch Elm Golf Club. Trails, tidewater paddling, farm stands, and seasonal festivals keep the calendar lively without sacrificing the town’s unhurried feel.
