Stay there for a more urbane, summer-resort experience. High season on the Mid-Coast begins anywhere from Memorial Day to the Fourth of July and usually ends on Labor Day. But because fall is so lovely here clear, crisp days and flaming leaf colors some establishments maintain in-season rates through Columbus Day. You can get to Acadia National Park from many places along the Mid-Coast.
Islands remain quintessential Maine places.
August is the most popular month for visitors to the Mid-Coast. Rates at some accommodations reflect that, rising from July to August. Peak foliage in Mid-Coast Maine occurs during the first or second week of October, depending on the year. Reserve accommodations early for the high season and foliage season on the Mid-Coast.
