Maine is known by many for its coastline. There’s no denying that. But when was the last time you spent some time inland, remembering that so much of Maine is actually covered in lakes and forests? If it’s been a while, you might consider adding this restaurant to your list of things to check out this summer. It’s hidden within the trees and you can even make it an overnight trip with a stay at the attached inn!
The small town of Weld is home to about 400 people.
