Ten Reasons to Choose
New England Vacations

Mention New England vacations and most people picture a scene of fall foliage, or a village green with a white steeple church. For others it’s a whale watch or a drive along Maine's rocky coastline, or Cape Cod and the Islands.

And there's the famous clam chowder festivals, and the beautiful array of lighthouses that pocket its thousands of miles of coastline.

And of course there’s Boston.

A charming city of old and new. A city reclaimed from marshland, and full of folks that take their politics and sports seriously.

A city that welcomes visitors with plenty-to-see attractions.

But New England vacations are even more. They're six vacations in one - Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont.

And here’s a sampler of just ten ideas and suggestions of things you can do on your New England vacations…

Ten New England Vacations and Destinations:

> Stroll along the Great Beach on the Cape Cod National Seashore, one of New England’s remarkable treasures and an unbroken walk of over twenty miles of white sandy beaches teeming with wild life.

>Hike, drive or ride to the summit of Mount Washington in the White Mountains of New Hampshire - the highest point in the Northeast and known as "home to the world's worst weather."

> Soak up a vacation of New England history in the birthplace of the revolution in Boston, Concord, or Lexington, or visit one of our living theme museums at Plymouth Plantation, Sturbridge Village, Mystic Seaport, or Strawberry Banke.

> Kayak around the Thimble Islands off the coast of Connecticut during the day and then maybe "hit the jackpot" in the evening at the world’s largest casino at Foxwoods Resort – two unique New England vacations destinations.

> If vacations of quiet water in New England is what you’re after then consider a weeklong canoeing trip along Maine’s Allagash Waterway Wilderness – one of the last opportunities in New England to experience the remoteness of the vast northern forests.

> Tour the New Hampshire Lakes region and visit Squam Lakes – the location of the film “On Golden Pond” and take a 21/2 hour cruise on Lake Winnipesaukee - the largest and one of the deepest lakes in New Hampshire.
