Do you know of any unique travel destinations in the US?
Josh asked:
My girlfriend and I want to take a trip somewhere in the US. But we really don’t want to go to any super touristy type of place (ie. Hollywood, New York, Disney World, etc)
We want to go to a place that has a nice old fashioned feeling and make you feel like you’re in a whole different country. You know?
Like, a place in Pennsylvania, Montana, Maine, etc.

We live in the San Diego area. So anything different from a place like San Diego would be great.
Send links and stories of your own personal experience. Thanks!

Minnesota has lots to offer—Arkansas is also a very folksy place to visit. North or South Dakota have a culture all their own and aren’t hardly “touristy”. Sounds like a great sort of vacation plan.

well you said, maine…start at the bottom and work your way up the coast…key places to visit in order from south to north:
york/oqounguit beach area–long sandy beaches, low key feel
old orchard beach–7 ,iles of sandy beach, boardwalks, bars, thousands of people
portland–maine’s city, right on the waterfront, great place to visit
popham beach state park–mix of sandy and rugged maine coast
boothbay harbor–small fishing village, lots of tours leave from there
bar harbor/acadia national park–mountains meet the sea and bar harbor is a very cool small coastal town
machias–now you’re really leaving the whooplah behind, its the real maine
eastport/lubec– eastern most points of the US
..in bewteen these places you’ll see some of the most dramatic coastline in the world and some very nice quaint coastal towns
