September in Ogunquit – Full of Fall Festivals & Events

Ogunquit is a great year round destination  – there’s so much more than the beach. At the Meadowmere, we get very excited at our hotel to celebrate Fall. Autumn has such beautiful colors in New England and Southern Maine is full of reasons to enjoy the cool nights and warm days.

Last minute getaway? We just tweeted and made an updated on Facebook too about a last minute deal at our Ogunquit hotel (if you are interested – you can find the Meadowmere on Facebook or on twitter with a click). But in case you are not yet getting our updates that way – we wanted to post a quick blog. We’ve got great savings tonight and tomorrow night at our hotel. Seemed like good enough stuff to share here too!

Every year on Memorial Day weekend, AIDS quilt panels are placed on display in the town hall of Ogunquit. It is strange knowing that such a sober and moving display lies at the center of Ogunquit village as so many rush to enjoy restaurants, shops and Meadowmere on their Memorial Day vacation to Ogunquit. A calm in the middle of a storm, so to say.

This morning at the Meadowmere we had an early check in of a rather large family. Ms. Momma Duck with kids in tow arrived at 10am. She enjoyed our garden area and tried to relax on the patio, but the ‘kids’ wouldn’t let her rest (we think they wanted to go in the indoor pool). They kept waddling around and chirping and wouldn’t you know it – getting into everything!

So there’s a bit of a fire storm in Ogunquit Maine over Poland Springs. Seems the company would like to have access to local water supplies. Now, Poland Springs is a great company and a Maine (sort-of – Nestle owns them now) company. And access to water is an important issue. But that’s not where this is going.

Planning a summer trip (hey rumors of 80 degrees this weekend get the wheels turning at the Meadowmere!) for the family can be a bit overwhelming. Where to start? Where to go? In New England, we got plenty of summer events to choose from. Yankee Magazine just put out their top picks and About.com’s A to Z New England Summer Festival guide just came out (this is creative – props for coming up with an event for T!) – In short, there is no shortage of festivals to choose from!
