Anyone here ever been to Freeport, Maine? If so, what do you like about the area? Great hiking, paddling, and camping nearby? THX.
Regards,
DR

Girlfriend is from NY and the in-laws lent me the Lincoln so we could tour 2500 miles of the Northeast. We stopped in Freeport for a short spell, maybe just overnight or probably just passing through. I wanted to see LL Beans. It was quite the establishment, three stories if I’m recalling correctly with a little trout stream and pond indoors. We continued on further north and camped in Acadia Park. I was impressed how the forest grown right down to the ocean. They have some very decent walking trails.

That bit of the Maine coast is nice. A little touristy in Freeport—LL Bean is a major local industry in that way. Handy to Portland, which means to good medical services, etc. Winter can be interesting.
