rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author BeastieGirl - If you like shopping and you like Maine, then you are sure to enjoy the town of Freeport. On the other hand, if you get road rage in parking lots and don't like dealing with crowds, you might want to avoid the Freeport Village (at least in the...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author azielinski - A few weekends ago, two friends and I (4rhodes was one of them) headed up to Maine for a weekend trip. Freeport was not the reason for the trip but we added it on at the last minute because of the weather in Portland – yes, we need the rain.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jklrjb - People come from miles around to go to Freeport, and there's little doubt as to why. There are tons of brand-name outlet shops, LLBean's famous 24-7-365 retail store, and all of the Maine delicacies you could ask for, all off of one Maine street.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Writerip - Freeport, Maine is probably most popular among its visitors for its enormous selection of outlet shopping extravaganzas. In addition to the outlets it also boasts the internationally renown L.L.Bean--an event in itself.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jsweil - Freeport is definitely the place to go if you're into shopping at a reasonable price. Here is where the term outlet mall probably was invented with tons of shops selling merchandise at reduced prices. All big names too so you can get the good clothes...

When my husband informed me that we were going to Maine for our vacation last year, I wasn't thrilled. Maine is not my favorite place. No offence to those of you that like it but it's...

trvl-Dest-United States-Maine-Freeport: Maybe Karl Marx Was Correct

Thu, 8 Jun 2000 22:27:31 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author LeopoldBloom32 - Freeport wasn't always like this. It used to be a smallish seaside town in Maine's midcoast region with a great stretch of coastline and a cozy downtown. I'm referring to the late 1970s and early 80s. Even LL Bean lived up to the reputation that it...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author producer - Ok - If you're looking for serious Outlet shopping, Freeport probably isn't what you want. It does not have quite the outlet selection of Kittery, Maine - or some of the larger Outlet areas in the country - but it certainly has more ambiance - Not to...

Sun, 30 Apr 2000 20:07:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author momsworkinlate - The best kept secret of Freeport Maine will not be found in the crowded shopping area, the bargains to be found (to few and far between) or the overflowing parking lots. It is the Desert.

trvl-Dest-United States-Maine-Freeport: Freeport is not really worth it

Sat, 29 Apr 2000 22:16:50 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author peace7550 - I happen to live in the great state of Maine and I think if your visiting Maine you could be doing much better things than shopping at over rated outlets. L.L.Bean is ok but you can always shop them in the catalog or on the net. Most of the other stores...

Tue, 28 Mar 2000 09:57:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sgian - As a native Mainer who lives about an hour from Freeport, I have spent plenty of time in LLBean and the like. But far more typically, I zip through town (the back way during peak season) and head for the natural beauty of the Maine coast. There are two...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author druzba - In Freeport, as the name of this popular Maine destination DOES NOT imply, you will not find anything for free so it's best that you stay at home.

If you're into outlet shopping, there's plenty here. However, these are the same stores you'll...
