October in Maine is best described as the foliage capital of
the USA. In fact, smartertravel.com ranks Maine as the #1 must visit state when
it comes to leaf-peeping. Late September thru October is considered peak season
for color change in the state of Maine. The beauty of fall foliage is it’s
everywhere you look. Long drives and endless traffic aren’t necessary to enjoy
this activity.
And if the foliage alone isn’t enough to excite you, throw
in some lighthouses and scenic oceanside landscapes and you have a picturesque
setting matched by no other, truly a dreamy backdrop for many well-known, world
renowned artists’.
The month of October is also a very popular time of year for
Maine festivals. Two of the most prominent festivals in the seacoast region:
York’s Harvest Fest (October 19&20) and OgunquitFest (October 26&27)
fall in the month of October. Food vendors, crafts, carriage rides and live
bands are only a few of the many activities to be held at these wonderful
festivals.
The Mariner Resort is conveniently located in the heart of the
foliage, as well as the festivals. Be sure to come stay with us and enjoy all
of the colors, crafts, music and festivals that are happening this time of
year.
