    So, how do you rate an open space? In my estimation, it's typically not the "space" people rate…read morehere - but the event they're attending. However, as far as wide open spaces of nature go, this one is stunning to view in the fall; as is the rest of New England, for that matter. On this day, I made an impromptu attendance to a car show. Which is rich, considering I'm not even a car guy, nor have I ever been to one before today. See, I was actually revisiting an old friend from back in the day. And when I say "way back", I'm talkin' like....grade school! Do you know how rare it is to still be talking to someone from grade school years, albeit sporadically? Anyways, the area is surrounded by various in-house cafés and such. To be honest, I don't know too much about the surrounding amenities since I remained outdoors for the couple of hours I was at the car show. I will say there were certainly a variety of....rather interesting cars on this day. Don't ask me when they'll have another event like this because I only discovered this one via my friend's IG post. Still, it looks like a lovely place to hike, if you're into that sort of thing. It's also the perfect place to temporarily jump off the grid, seeing as there is limited (if any) cell phone service out here. Not a complaint, just a word of caution to anyone who doesn't want to be completely disconnected from society for a day. So, yeah...I'd recommend this space to anyone going for long walks or....whatever else people do out in these parts. Castle In the Clouds lives up to its namesake, worthy of 5 stunning autumn foliage spectacles out of 5.

    Winter lunch at the Castle was so fun! Tables located in historic converted stable at the carriage…read morehouse. Set menu including starter and entree with n/a drink and gratuity at a reasonable cost. Food was excellent as was the service. Highly recommend- note reservations are required

    Diana's Bath is a natural pool with some small waterfalls. The walk from the parking lot is about…read more.6 miles one way, it's a quick and easy hike to reach this gorgeous spot. There is a parking lot and we were able to find parking but I'm sure it gets full at peak times. We enjoyed the hike and the waterfalls. It was in late May so there were quite a few people there. It's a peaceful spot to relax, sit in the pool, and just enjoy nature. I'm glad my family and I got to visit during this trip!

    Parking instructions here were very unclear. What we initially believed were parking spaces turned…read moreout to be a line of cars waiting to park, with no visible signage where we entered. When we noticed an opening, we asked nearby drivers if we could squeeze in, and they had no issue with it. As we were parking, an employee approached us in a very aggressive and unprofessional manner and told us we could not park there. We apologized and explained that we were not from the area and had not seen any signs. We were told that the rule was "well known to locals" and that a sign existed at the front of the line--more than 25 cars ahead, making it impossible for us to see. Despite the surrounding drivers having no objection, the employee demanded we leave and became increasingly hostile when we asked questions or requested a manager. At that point, the interaction escalated unnecessarily, and we decided it wasn't worth the confrontation and left. I've never experienced such a level of rudeness from a staff member over an honest misunderstanding. Clear signage and more professional communication would have avoided the entire situation. Someone even yelled out "stop being a parking nazi". I would have otherwise liked to review the venue itself, but we were unable to do so as we never made it inside.

    This hike is a nice place to take a short stroll for the locals but not a place I would recommend…read moretourist to come. First off, it is only about half mile from parking to the waterfall. So total hike was only 1 mile. it is a WALK, not hike. Good for families with young ones. Be very aware that the mosquitoes here are super HUNGRY! I have never gotten so many bites within such a short time inside a hike! I got 6-7 bites all over my legs just from hiking here for 30 mins. My husband got 8+ bites all over his body! Luckily my little one only got 1 bite. We were all over Maine in the last 2 weeks including kayaking and out at Acadia national park. All outdoor activities and barely got any bites until now! There are other trails here too but after getting so many bites, we wanted to run away as fast as we could! I wish I didn't come here. View and waterfall are not worth it for trade off of these hungry hungry mosquitoes!! *sooo itchy* :-/ Bring bug spray if you wanna come!

    Jewell falls is a waterfall of water flowing from the Fore River and is named for Tom Jewell who…read morewas one of the founders Portland Trails and very much alive today. Did you know that Portland Trails started in 1991? He donated the land around the falls and the rest of the land the trail walls through is a mix of public and private land. You see evidence of this with many marked signs that designate private property -- good to respect these so we can continue to walk these trails. Somehow I got lost off my usual path I take and ended up going on the greater fore river sanctuary trail loop around and across the railroad tracks, but the boardwalks were great! Back to the falls, if you start at the trailhead near Brighton ave, it's less than 0.25 miles of a walk. The falls are made of horsetails of rushing water over large slabs of rock. The trails are really well maintained and there's not too many people. You can definitely still hear traffic from some parts but there are a few quiet enclaves.
