Livermore Falls, ME

Livermore Falls is a quiet, down-to-earth river town set along the Androscoggin in western Maine. Positioned right beside neighboring Jay and Livermore, the town grew up around papermaking and timber, where the falls once powered a bustling mill economy. Today, it offers a relaxed, affordable pace of life surrounded by scenic woods, quiet backroads, and plenty of spots along the water to fish, kayak, or take in the river views.
