For every season there's a compelling reason to plan a Maine vacation. During the
spring and summer, Mother Nature opens its doors with 70-degree temperatures and countless
opportunities to play and explore. Visitors flock to Old Orchard Beach and its 7-mile
stretch of sand, where carefree days in the water give way to entertaining nights
along the pier. Other summer vacationers head to Maine's celebrated golf courses,
explore a scenic mountain trail, or set sail on a whale-watching expedition.
Autumn brings an entirely different kind of experience. With the crisp fall air comes
a Technicolor display of fiery reds and bright yellows from just about any vantage
point: a mountain pass, an apple orchard, a trout-filled stream. But Maine's true
beauty can be seen when winter sets in. Besides the incredibly long list of ski slopes
to visit, outdoor enthusiasts enjoy tubing, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling.
Christmas lights outline historic lighthouses during the holidays for an added charm.
Of course, anytime is a great time to visit Maine if you're planning a culinary vacation.
When nominees were announced for the James Beard award for the Best Chef in the Northeast
in 2007, no other state had more representatives than Maine.
And no matter when you stay, you'll always have a delightful selection of Endless
Vacation Rentals accommodations to choose from, each equipped to ensure your stay
feels truly like a home away from home.
