Bar Harbor
I'm planning a trip from Columbus, OH to Bar Harbor, ME. Suggestions for sightseeing along the way?!?
My husband and I are driving from Columbus, Ohio to Bar Harbor, Maine (round-trip) in mid June. We want to make it a sightseeing adventure. Are there any "must see" stops we should make along the way?! (there or back!)
If you're going to take IS-90, you might want to check out Presque Isle and Waldameer Park (just west of Erie, and marginally "must see"), Niagara Falls, and the Saratoga/Lake George area of New York. Saratoga, apart from its tradition as a summer retreat for the nation's wealthy elite, also has one of the nation's most important historical parks.

Of course, Boston is another possibility, and I would classify it as a "must see" if you've never been there. You could check the resolved questions of the Boston travel category for things to do in Boston, but it has great museums, great university campuses, and the "Freedom Trail," among much more.

If you like classical music, you could check out the Blossom Music Festival at Blossom Music Center in the midst of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park outside of Cleveland. The Cleveland Orchestra is ranked among the best in the world. Check out Cleveland resolved questions if you want to consider including Cleveland on your trip.
Have fun!!!
