Thanks so much. We will definitely fly into Manchester. We have heard from several sources that driving in Boston can be complicated. Thanks for the report on Kings Port Inn and we will add Goose Rocks Beach to our itinerary. Is it easy to walk on the beach there?

Ayup. Very easy to walk on the kennebunk beaches. Even easier to sit and watch other people walk 'em.......

A lovely inn in Maine is the Black Pointe Inn, just south of Portland. It is right on the water and has a very scenic walking path around the point.
