Travel/Things To Do
Travel Note
Getting to the venue
Your GPS will take you to the Thompson's Orchard store, but the venue itself is further up the hill. We will have signs on the road directing you to the venue/parking. Please use the image above as a reference. Parking is limited, so please carpool as much as possible.
Travel Note
Transportation
Maine is known for its natural beauty, not its vast availability of Ubers/Lyfts/taxis. For those traveling and/or planning on drinking, please plan ahead. Carpool if possible, and please do not drink and drive!
Hotel
Where to Stay
There is a limited amount of hotels/AirBnBs in the area around the venue, but there are plenty of options in the Freeport (25 mins), Brunswick (35 mins), and Portland (35 mins) areas. Please feel free to reach out to the bride and groom if you need assistance finding somewhere to stay.
