ROAD TRIP WORTHY: Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens Will Help You Escape From The World For A Day
When Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens says there are "blue skies ahead," we believe them. Blue skies signify happier times, and we all need a big dose of happy right about now. We need a place where we can go to escape from the added stress and anxiety that sometimes comes into our lives.
This delightful place has built its business on putting smiles on people's faces with its exquisite gardens featuring gorgeous flowers and native plants set in a "compelling" natural landscape, which includes about a mile of spectacular tidal saltwater frontage.
The Gardens, located in Boothbay, Maine, is one of the "most distinguished botanical destinations in the country," according to its Facebook page.
It is truly a place to soak in the beauty of Maine's botany. People of all ages may enjoy a lovely stroll around one of Maine's top attractions. There is more than a day's worth of acreage -- 295 acres to explore -- and it can be taken at your own pace.
Botanical Gardens open usually in the spring and offer up a lot to see and do from the trolls to the trails to the flowers, stonework and more.
