Located on US-Route 1 on Maine’s gorgeous Midcoast is the charming town of Wiscasset. Situated at the head of the Back and Sheepscot Rivers, Wiscasset’s deep bay and fertile farmland made the town a hub for shipping, fishing, and logging in the 18th and 19th centuries. Once the busiest port north of Boston, Wiscasset’s community has impressively preserved it’s history while promoting growth and prosperity. Wiscasset is a very popular tourist destination and noted as the prettiest village in Maine.
