Wells Reviews
Rating 4.11 out of 5 28 reviews
Wells is a beautiful beach down in southern Maine. I grew up in northern Maine and went to school there as well. Wells has so much to offer aside from the lovely beaches, it offers a real community working towards better every member in it. From young kids to the elderly, Wells is home to some amazingly driven people.
I love the summers, the weather is perfect and the beaches are beautiful. While there may be lots of tourists around that is how our town is able to be so beautiful and well kept. I gave Wells four stars only because of the cold dark winter months that I dislike.
I love this ocean, vacation town. The public schools are the best I have ever seen. Lots of restaurants and local shops to explore. It does get busy in the summer with traffic but well worth it. All seasons are beautiful here!
