Commanding the northern edge of Casco Bay, just 20 minutes north of Portland, is the town of Freeport Maine. Best known as a shopping mecca, this town has high-end outlet shops, including the flagship store of L.L. Bean, along the quaint Main Street.
The Freeport shopping district is especially buzzing during summer and the holiday season when travelers come for quality gift shopping at discount prices. Just outside Freeport village is the beautiful seacoast and scenic attractions like the Desert of Maine and Wolfe’s Neck Woods State Park. Plus, lobster shacks and boating excursions lead out to Casco Bay.
