Escape to Maine

Escaping the Summer Heat

Camden, Rockport and Rockland, Maine are three pretty sister villages on the Maine Mid-Coast with populations ranging from 5,300 in Camden up to 7,700 in Rockland. Each town still shows off grand homes and gardens from a time when shipbuilding, timber, wool and lime industries brought prosperity in the 19th century. We came for the cooler weather and schooners. The towns’ fleets of tall-masted schooners and windjammers ply Penobscot Bay for daysails and over-night pleasure trips. We are looking forward to spending Friday at sea on the Schooner Olad with Captain Aaron Lincoln. We’ll sail out of Camden and be part of the annual Rockland Breakwater Windjammer Parade. Our favorite strategy for visiting Maine is to rent a cottage by the sea, which can be surprisingly affordable. Please let us know if we can help you arrange for your Maine get-away.
