Welcome to Wells

Wells is known for its extensive beaches and well as its tidal marshland vistas. With hotels, beach condos, and cottage communities there is a beach living option for everyone! An extensive trolley system allows you to leave the car and parking worries behind and hit the beach or one of the many area restaurants and amusements. 
 
West of Route One is a rural community that lends a year-round home-town feel. The Wells Reserve at Laudholm Farm provides opportunities for nature exploration, X-C skiing, programs, activities, and events. And did we mention that Wells has the best little donut shop in Maine? We love Congdon’s!
