New England Road Trip

8+ days: stay awhile wherever we want!
NEW ENGLAND USA -- There's nothing quite like a New England summer vacation. The thoughts of scenic ocean beaches and mountains, quaint village green towns in full bloom, sunsets that tell a different story every night, and, of course, fried clams, steamers and lobster are just a few of the countless things that make a New England summer vacation unique and ultimately unforgettable.
June can be a perfect time to visit the region, but be forewarned: You may need to request a room with a fireplace. Late June weather is usually lovely. July and August can be perfect -- sunny and breezy -- or damp, foggy, and humid. Usually it's a combination of the two.
when traveling to the region you want to explore, whenever possible, use I-95 (the Maine Turnpike) to travel South to North. When looking at a Maine map first timers often think that if they travel on Route One they will see more of the Maine Coast. While there are sections of the Mid-Coast Regions visited only by Route One, when possible, use the Interstate – get there – explore – enjoy! The truth is you will be several miles closer to the coast than the Maine Turnpike but not close enough to see the coast. With all of Route One's traffic lights your drive time will double.
