With some awesome road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore all that Castine, 16 miles away, has to offer. Holbrook Island Sanctuary State Park, Fort Madison State Park and Castline Golf Club alone justify the drive out here. Don’t skip Lincolnville either! Just 20 miles away, Camden Hills State Park, Camden Opera House and Camden Public Library are non-negotiable stops here.
