We truly have something for everyone!Here are some things people visiting Maine need to know in advance:Cell phones: Although coverage is getting better, there are some places where cell phones don’t get good reception. Chances are you will have service, but just in case, make sure you leave the number of the house you are renting with those who may need to get in touch with you. Coverage with AT&T can be spotty in many areas of Maine.Weather: If you have heard it once, you’ve heard it a hundred times: if you don’t like the weather in New England, wait a minute. It can be hot in Rockland and cool in Port Clyde so make sure to pack a variety of clothes — from a bathing suit to a sweater for cool evenings. Check out the current local weather at www.weather.com Bugs: A lot of people ask us if we have mosquitoes…we sure do. But they aren’t huge and they don’t ruin a vacation. Bring some repellent, or pick some up at the local general stores and you will be fine; usually, you won’t even notice them.Dogs: We love dogs around here, but each town has their own rules about pets. Make sure to look for signs stating if dogs are allowed and always have them on a leash. And if they leave behind anything, please pick it up. Not a fun surprise when you are exploring the beautiful shoreline. You can also be fined for not picking up after your four-legged friend.Provided for your convenience are initial supplies of the following: linens, bath towels, washcloths, hand towels and beach towels, your first tank of propane for the gas grill, dish soap, dishwashing soap, hand soap, laundry detergent, toilet paper, and paper towels.
