There are plenty of places to spend the night in Maine. Whether it’s luxury hotels you crave or simple camps by the lake, a weekend stay (or longer!) is almost a necessity in a place like this. But when you want to try something truly special, you’ll want to look a bit outside the box. This private island is a great place to start. If you’ve got a special occasion coming up, this might be a great option. It’s not inexpensive, but it’s oh-so worth it!
