Maine

For this year's Friends Campout, Joe and Sarah found a lakeside cabin in Nobleboro, Maine. It had the perfect dock for boating, swimming, and fishing. And it was close to Acadia National Park and the ocean so there was plenty to do. Austin and the kids went up for the week and I flew in the minute my seminar was over so I wouldn't have to miss all the fun.
 
Kayaking and paddleboarding from the dock to the island.

Even rainy days are good for fishing.
