Camden

Climb to the top of Mt. Battie and admire the view. This is a picturesque New England town.

I live about five minutes from camden, in the same school district. the place mousecrazy mentioned is actually called french and brawn, and its baked goods are definitely worth trying. if visiting camden, walk up bayview street for awhile until you find a small park overlooking the ocean on the left. this is laite beach, and it has one of the most beautiful views of the harbor you’ll see.

ps. look for the odd tree in between the two masses of forest- it’s my favorite :]
the picture above does not do justice, but at least you’ll know the beach when you see it.

If you go to the top of Mount Battie, check out the blueberry bushes found along the sides, just down from the top. I’ve picked berries there, washed them, and had my own blueberry breakfast!
Also, check out French’s Market for some delicious cranberry orange muffins!

One of the most picturesque of the many Maine towns one sees on tv and the movies. Beautiful little harbor, nice selection of B & B’s, not that many true natives due to tons of outsdiers buying up land and houses and then staying around. Bookstores are interesting although a bit touristy. A gorgeous state park (the name escpaes me now) is just a few mile north of town.

Right on the coast, Camden has a sweet little harbor area with shops and restaurants. There are great places to stay all around. Mostly I have been there for business, but I always make a point to check out local places.
