3 Day / Four Night Itinerary
So much to see and so little time... but this is your vacation and you want the best advice on what to
see and do and make the most of your visit and still allow time to unwind and experience that
calmness you long for.  So here is a suggested itinerary that guests have loved.  One couple from
Maine made a point of following it to the letter and had an absolutely fabulous time! But there is still
lots of room for those individual choices and for whim to have its fancy.

Those who don't allow themselves enough time on the trail always say,

" If only I had known...."
