I'm from Long Island and I would like to get away for a few days and everything is SO expensive. I'd like to aim towards New England and not to the Hamptons. Any suggestions on a small town that is resonable?

yes, i can go during the week. ideally i don't want to spend more than $125. i'd spend 2 nights. a motel would be ok, as long as it's close to food and beach/boardwalk and/or attractions.

The Cape Anne Motor Inn, Gloucester MA, is well in your budget and right on the beach, but you'd have to drive into town for food and shopping. Its a nice town to walk around in, though.
What about the Harborside Inn on Block Island?
Is downtown Portsmouth NH too far away?
When are your travel dates -- now, or summertime?

Basically I am free to travel any time this summer. I was hoping to avoid overwhelming crowds, so traveling during the week is an option. I was hoping to keep the drive around 3 hours from NYC. Thanks for the info so far.
