Ideas for weekend in New England?
 

Been to Nantucket and the Vineyard, Newport and Rockport --- looking for perhaps something different for a long weekend in May. Price not too much of an issue - want to be near the water and a nice town with some quaintness and good restaurants. Any help would be appreciated!

How about Portsmouth NH? lots of B&B's,and quaint old houses to visit, nearby shopping in Kittery, and good restaurants. Another option, though I've not been there, would be Portland ME. I keep hearing what a great place to go for a weekend and plan to check it out one of these days.

Kenneybunkport (spelling?), Maine. Great spot.

Portland, ME great. Camden and Boothbay--lovely.

It's not the ocean, but how about Burlington, Vermont on Lake Champlain?? There are some great restaraunts and shops, and active arts and music scene, and plenty of other "attractions" nearby--Shelburne Farms is a huge estate on right on the Lake that you can tour. I also believe there is an Inn there or nearby. Shelburne Museum is great. You could also visit Stowe which hosts a myriad of good restaraunts.
