We did the trip last fall going north last two weeks of Sept up to Acadia and south the first two weeks of October. Ideal was over the four weeks, we would definitely hit some color along the way regardless if it was a early or late showing. Having a pickup camper, it was easy for us to move most days. Without reservations, we were able to move faster when we were ahead of or behind the colors and slow down when we found the places in peak. Maybe because we stayed away from towns in campgrounds without hookups, but we never had a problem with finding a site and most of the times the campgrounds were mostly empty. Couldn't even really tell when it was the weekends by the crowds.
Make sure you either bookmark the page or download the apps for each state to track the colors. But I think the best site I found covered the entire New England. Of course, if you have reservations, won't make much difference as you will be stuck regardless of the colors.
