EAST COAST ROAD TRIP PLANNER FREE
Both resorts also offer free luxury car rentals. The Ocean House is much more grandiose with fine art adorning the walls and very extravagant suites. They also offer many complimentary activities including cooking demonstrations, a croquet field, and even a putting green in the front of the breathtaking property.īoth properties were elegant with accommodations that range from cozy rooms with claw foot bathtubs to expansive suites with massive verandas, outdoor kitchens, jacuzzi hot tubs, and gourmet kitchens where private chefs can create custom meals for your group. They offer birdwatching, adorable rental bikes, and walking trails. The Weekapaug Inn is a bit less formal and very cozy with lots of fireplaces. These are partner resorts, meaning you can use the amenities of both properties, which is perfect as each property has a different personality. During our stay, we spent time at both the Ocean House and Weekapaug Inn, which are historically charming resorts and only 15 minutes apart. This is a quiet town with beautiful Nantucket-style homes, gorgeous coastal views, and a relaxing aura. Rhode IslandĪfter the easy drive from the Hartford airport, we arrived in Westerly, Rhode Island. We’re sure Connecticut has a lot of offer as a state, but we literally just flew in and headed Southeast for the two-hour drive to Rhode Island. Our rationalizations were twofold: Karen needed to check this state off of her list, and Hartford was a larger airport than Rhode Island which made travel cheaper and provided more flexible flight options. With it being Autumn, it actually might have made more sense to start in Vermont and road trip south to take better advantage of the changing foliage.
Our route can be done in either direction. When the American Lamb Association invited us to Portland, Maine for an event, we knew it was the perfect opportunity for us to plan the ultimate New England road trip! Due to timing, we started south, drove up the coast to make it to Maine, and then ventured West across New Hampshire to Vermont. We did quite a bit of planning in order to find the perfect route through the New England states, including the best places to visit in New England and the best FOOD! If you already live on the East coast, we hope this journey planner inspires you to take a New England day trip to one of your beautiful neighboring states.
Both of us have only visited Massachusetts prior to this road trip. The New England states are Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. Somehow for the past few years, other travel got in the way and our New England plans got delayed. It has been a goal of ours to road trip through New England for YEARS! Karen is obsessed with tracking all the states she has visited, and the Northeast seemed like a giant black hole in her progress. 6 states, 6 days, 700 miles, countless memories
