With some great day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to experience everything that Greenville Junction, 30 miles away, has to offer. Big Squaw Mountain Ski Resort ought to be at the top of your to-do list here. Katahdin Cruises and Moosehead Marine Museum and Moosehead Historical Society are excellent attractions too. Augusta is another popular option. It’s 55 miles away and home to an array of awesome things to do. Maine State House, Old Fort Western and Maine State Museum are only the start.
