Where to Stay
We’ve got a place for everyone,
no matter what they plan to do.
Even you!
The best way to begin your search for
a place to stay in Maine’s Kennebec
Valley is to figure out what you plan to
do and build up from there. With the
huge variation in the activities visitors
come here to enjoy in all four seasons,
there will no doubt be a place for you.
Looking to get off the grid? Camping
is a natural choice whether you plan
to park your RV or bring a tent. No
equipment? No problem. Maybe it’s an
Outdoor Adventure Resort or one of the
many traditional Maine Cottage Resorts
you need. Either keep you well rested
and ready to face the day.
Want to handle all the daily scheduling
and details like you would at home? A
Vacation Rental will provide you with
control over every moment of your stay.
Hampton Inn, Augusta
32 Make a Plan: KennebecValley.org
Find a lakeside cottage of your dreams
or a cozy mountain bungalow built for
two; you make the rules and the meals.
Sporting Camps and Wilderness Lodges
are purpose-built for adventure and
for the hunting and fishing types. But
don’t be fooled, most have the comforts
of an in-town hotel; they just happen
to put their guests in the center of
the action.
Visitors to the region coming in for
shorter getaways—perhaps something
like a special event, destination wedding,
or romantic leaf-peeping trip can pick
from a collection of in-town Inns and
B&Bs. And if you plan on being in
Augusta, Waterville, Skowhegan or
some of the other larger towns here,
there are excellent choices when it
comes to Hotels and Motels.
Maple Hill Farm Inn, Hallowell
Camping
From rugged fun to relax in the sun,
pack your gear and go. Don’t forget your
sense of adventure and a plan to have
no plans. Campgrounds range from
simple tenting to full-on family RV
camping resorts, so do your homework
as you look for the “perfect spot.” Keep
in mind the things you want to do, too,
when you are not on your site.
