Ogunquit - The Milestone

10/10 Excellent
"Nous adorons cet endroit qui offre le petit-déjeuner et qui est situé à 800 mètres de la magnifique plage de Footbridge. Il y a de bons restaurants à proximité et il est possible de découvrir Ogunquit et Perkins Cove à pieds (environ 4km). Le Marginal Way est également situé assez près pour faire une belle randonnée (facile) d’environ 8-10 km aller-retour à partir de ce motel. La piscine est grande et intime grâce aux arbres et arbustes tout autour. Il est facile d’aller (en voiture) vers Kennebunkport et sa plage (au nord de Wells) et également d’aller visiter York (au sud) et même les outlets de Kittery (environ 30 minutes de route). Pour nous, cet endroit est vraiment agréable et idéal pour passer 4-5 nuits dans le secteur de Wells/Ogunquit que nous adorons!"
