Acadia National Park
We visited Acadia in May 2019 as part of this loop trip to Maine. Just outside the quaint seaside town of Bar Harbor, Maine, a five-hour drive north of Boston, sits the exquisite seaside jumble of rocks known as Acadia National Park. We took the Airstream up to Bar Harbor in mid-May for our first…

Five days in Bar Harbor, Maine–Acadia Loop trip
We visited Bar Harbor in May 2019 during our Acadia NP trip. Dragging the Airstream down narrow, low-clearance, steephilly New England roads was completely worth it: Bar Harbor, and specifically Acadia National Park, is a spectacular vacation destination. We ate an absurd number of lobster rolls, drank as much local beer as we could get…

Two days in Beverly, MA–Acadia Loop trip
We visited Beverly in May 2019 during our Acadia National Park trip. We love the Boston area: we lived in Charlestown for two years in the Aughts and try to visit J’s mom just north of Boston often. Taking the Airstream to Beverly, though… let’s just say we learned an important lesson. Airstreaming in New…

One night in Hershey, PA–Acadia Loop trip
We visited Hershey in May 2019, as part of our trip to Acadia National Park. Our first real target destination on our road trip to Acadia was J’s mom’s house in Beverly, MA, but we didn’t want to do the drive from VA to MA with the Airstream all in one day. Hershey, PA sits…

Catch-up: we took the Airstream to Maine–Acadia Loop trip
We visited Maine in May 2019. It took me 7 months to finish writing about Big Trip #2; hopefully I’ll be quicker to write about our next, much shorter trip. In May, we took the Airstream up to Acadia National Park in Maine! I wrote about our general plans early in the researching process here,…

Big Trip #2 was in Fall of 2018; you should also read about Big Trip #1 in 2016, Big Trip #3 in 2020, and Big Trip #4 in 2022! Our final stop on Big Trip #2 was Asheville for one night, but I already listed our activities there on the Big Trip #2 Catch-up post,…

Two days in Nashville, TN (visit #4)–Big Trip #2
We were in Nashville in December 2018, as part of Big Trip #2. Read about our favorites from all six of our Nashville visits here. Nashville was our second-to-last stop on Big Trip #2, because it’s well-positioned for heading home from Out West, and because it’s a super fun town with a great urban camping situation.…

One night in Hot Springs, AR (visit #2)–Big Trip #2
We visited Hot Springs in December 2018 as part of Big Trip #2. Read about our first trip in 2016 here. We stayed in Hot Springs for a couple days on our first Big Trip, and knew it would make for an easy quick stopover between Austin and Nashville on this trip. The drive from…

Five days in Austin, TX (visit #3)–Big Trip #2
We were in Austin in December 2018 during Big Trip #2. Read about our previous visit in 2017, and our subsequent visits here: #3 in 2019, #4 in 2021, and #5 (during Snowmageddon) later in 2021; and our subsequent visit in 2024 here. Austin is our favorite big-city Airstream destination! The campground is more conveniently located than any hotel,…

Asheville, NC hiking index
Read our many Asheville posts here! Hello! This is not a normal trip recap or planning post, sorry. We’re heading to our favorite quickie Airstream destination, Asheville, next weekend to meet our favorite people from Atlanta (who let us park the Airstream in their driveway when we visit)–but without the Airstream (gasp!) and without Bugsy…
