Woodstock, a town in Oxford County, incorporated on February 7, 1815 from Dummer and Gorham Academy Grants.
Built about 1916,a substantial two-story, lakeside summer cottage Dreamhome was constructed by William Ellery and his wife Bessie. It was the centerpiece of a 125 acre estate bordering Lake Christopher and comprising several other cottages and outbuildings. The structure is a prime example of fine non-coastal summer residences in Maine's lakeshore interior.
Woodstock's major village is Bryant Pond, named from the adjacent water body. It gained brief fame as the last telephone exchange in Maine to give up a human operator in favor of automation.
South Woodstock is home to the small South Woodstock Meetinghouse and is the site of an old mill pond and mill on Andrews Brook.
The town is served by Maine Route 26 and lies east of Bethel and north of West Paris.
