“New England Today” travel magazine recently published, “10 Prettiest Coastal Towns” in ME. Camden was in their top ten and was referred to as “the jewel of the coast.” We’ve loved our 10 days here; celebrating our anniversary, hiking along the coast and to the summits of Mt. Battie and Mt Megunticook and enjoying fresh seafood.
We’ve been blown away by how few people are camping in this beautiful place. When I mentioned this to a park volunteer, she commented that it was still the off season. Kids don’t get out of school here until mid June and summer doesn’t officially start (get this) until the first day of summer. Growing up in the south, we thought of summer beginning after Memorial Day weekend. We are doing our best to enjoy these three extra weeks of spring and soak up the solitude. However, our next stop is a popular park that borders Acadia National Park and is completely booked. Ready or not, summer, here we come!
