A guide to enjoying Acadia National Park on any budget

The June issue of "Down East" offers tips on food, lodging, activities, and more.

PORTLAND, Maine — Will Grunewald spent some time on Mount Desert Island a few weeks ago and snagged a room for about $160 a night. That's a deal that likely won’t be seen again until after the leaves have fallen.

As the editor in chief of "Down East," Grunewald pays attention to the stories of Maine, and our national park is always one of the best. The catch, of course, is that "like so many rare and wonderful things," the magazine notes in its latest issue, "Acadia can come with a hefty price tag."

Grunewald joined us on 207 to talk about where to save and where to splurge on Mount Desert Island, whether you’re eating, sleeping, sailing, kayaking or simply enjoying a restorative beverage. Watch our conversation to learn more.
