The Mid-Coast Area
The Harbor View Inn is only a three-minute walk that takes you to the shops, art galleries, restaurants and antique dealers in Newcastle Maine or across the bridge in Damariscotta Maine. Enjoy concerts and arts and crafts exhibits at the Round Top Center for the Arts.
"...ideal location close to quaint shops, a wonderful bookstore and great crabcakes in Damariscotta..."
The ideal location of the Harbor View Inn affords easy day trips encompassing countless points of interest and activities. The magnificent harbor at Boothbay with whale-watching, island clambakes and fishing excursions lies less than 20 miles away down the River Road. A short drive down the other side of the river takes you to Pemaquid with its beach, fort and lighthouse, and to the quaint village of New Harbor for lobsters or cruises to Monhegan Island and Puffin Watches.
"...Creative breakfast is a bouquet!"
Other Attractions
Venturing northeast along the coast, visit the picturesque coastal towns of Camden and Rockport and spend some time at Rockland's Farnsworth Museum, whose fine collection of Maine art includes three generations of Wyeths.
"...I'm a computer buff; took so many pictures, Bernice, that I'm sending you a slide show..."
Also within an easy drive, but to the south, are such attractions as the Bowdoin College Museums and the Maine State Music Theater in Brunswick, the Maine Maritime Museum and Chocolate Church in Bath, and Freeport with its many outlet shops and L.L. Bean. You may want to hike a nearby nature trail or spend some time at Popham Beach or Reid State Park, two of Maine's finest beaches.
Or if your idea of a great vacation is total relaxation, feel free to read a book or just to daydream on the deck.
