Overview of Freeport
 Freeport, Maine, is a wonderful little town that is steeped both in history and modern day amusements. Settled since 1770, the town's heartbeat is small town values, and the consistency of the water that borders it--beautiful Casco Bay and the Haaraseeket River. This mix of both outdoor and communal influences makes Freeport a great place to visit. Freeport is rich in New England flavor; the dining and cultural activities are both reflective of the town's geographical location. And since Freeport is both historically significant and full of activities for the modern traveler, the locals are particularly gracious to their visitors, making you feel right at home during your stay. Freeport's population is on the small side-- which means you'll find a homey, quaint picture of America on every street. You won't get mowed over by taxi cabs and frantic pedestrians in Freeport. Instead, you'll have a chance to slow down, to actually observe what's around you. Freeport has way of acting like a lullaby to your over stimulated senses. But, at the same time, should you crave a dose of the big city, Boston is only two hours south and Portland only twenty minutes south. It's a known fact that after a few days in Freeport, you'll never want to leave. |
