We are planning a trip to see the east coast. We found that traveling the coast through Washington and Oregon it worked better to travel from north to south, as it is safer to stop at view sites and not having to cross southbound traffic. We assume traveling the east coast it would be better to travel from south to north. I would like to hear from people that have traveled on the north east coast as to the good, the bad, and the oh no what am I doing on this road. We are driving a 38 ft. motorhome that is 12 1/2 ft. high. I am not bothered driving mountain roads, as I have driven truck most of my life, but they tend to bother my wife.
We live in the middle and sense we always return home the direction has never mattered. IMHO, any travel should on the East Coast should be related to the season's and what the weather is. The Coast is great for most of the year from Maryland south, and North is usually a much shorter season. We also have enjoyed the Mountains up until Christmas, and year round in the south, but I tend to like the cooler less crowded areas.
Give us some idea when you will travel and what you are after -- Williamsburg and Washington DC are good year round but we only visit in off peak times.
Ashville, Biltmore, Rocky Gap, Shenandoah Parkway, Hilton Head, Jeckel Island, Rehoboth Beach.........on and on lots to see and do.
BOL,
