Long Island, NY to Wells , Maine

Anyone have any ideas what's along the way from Long Island, NY to Wells, Maine. Would like to stop going and coming. Thanks.
  • What kind of "stop" are you looking for? Dining? Scenery? Campgrounds? Fuel?
  • Mostly lots of traffic and rough roads but Providence and Boston and Cape area would be on my list. I hate that stretch of 95 but you probably already know best time to drive it.
  • Take the ferry from Orient to New London, spend the night at Countryside RV Park in Griswold CT
  • Rolo,

    Long Island is long (news flash), about 110 miles long iirc.
    Where are you planning to start from??

  • Aces High also close to the New London ferry terminal. However, if you're on the south fork it might be quicker to go through Throg's Neck.
  • Rolo2 .... I live in Merrick a couple of miles from you. About 10 years ago we went to Maine and as others have said we took the Orient to New London Ferry. We only has a pop-up at the time. If you do take the ferry make sure you make reservations ahead to time, especially if you are towing.

    It was worth the extra $$. We went on a Sunday morning. The ride out on Long Island was great, the weather exceptional which made for a very pleasant ferry ride.
