Vermont

Vermont Campground Association web site.

Central

Old Hancock Hotel - Hancock - Great bang for the buck. Full kitchens and 2 bedrooms. Great restaurant downstairs. No AC. Right on 125 at corner of Route 100. Near great motorcycle roads like 17, 73, 108, 12, 14, 73, Lincoln Gap, and Bethel Mountain. (Easy Ed)

Northern

Camp Meade - Middlesex - I haven't stayed here yet, but I've talked with some people that have and they all say its a great place for bikers to stay.  Not only because its in the middle of VT and right near some great motorcycle roads, but because it has some history itself. They have old military vehicles throughout the place and a small museum as well, and do big bon fires at night. I believe this is a summer only place. (OSJ)

Hilltop Inn - Montpelier - An employee owned 81 room hotel with cable TV, indoor pool and high speed Internet.  Clean and spacious rooms.  Remodeled in 2005.  Onsite restaurant serves a nice breakfast.  Paved parking.  Price $55 and up, season dependent.  Highly recommended. (GoldWingBob1)

Mainstay - South Burlington - A chain on Rte 7 that we stay at often (most places that  I recommend would be good for a larger family or shared with another couple) is in South Burlington VT. Rte 7 is NOT a good road to ride on.  Lots of traffic and traffic lights to deal with. The good thing about this hotel is most rooms are 2 bedroom suites, with huge bathrooms, full living rooms, full kitchens.  All for under $200 per night.  This is the only one in New England, and being in Burlington VT you are not too far away from some great site seeing or perfect motorcycle riding.  This one is pretty close to the 189 connector that will bring you to I91. Or close to downtown Burlington where you can take the ferry to NY. (OSJ)

Central

Abakee Cottages - Weirs Beach - Good price, food and drink in walking distance of the cabins... Right on the Lake,,, Ct, Cruizer and I stayed there with a few from the TSG group.. He stayed there before and the owners are VERY BIKER friendly.. The owner rides a Roadking :) (OldRadco)

 

Maine

Coast (Down East)

Craignair Inn - If you want to stay off the beaten path a bit up in this area, Michelle & I enjoyed our stay here when we visited the Owl's Head Transportation Museum this past fall. This place is truly off the path, you are 20 min away from any stores or restaurants. Although they have a small restaurant at the inn we don't recommend it.  Our meals were rather expensive and not very good.  The Inn itself was very pleasant, our room off in the building behind the main building was very clean and private. The parking lot is loose stone, but hidden from the main road.  The view from the front lawn of  the rocky shore was nice to look at even on a rainy night when we were there. (OSJ)

Trade Winds Motor Lodge - A very nice place to stay at that will not break the bank in downtown Rockland. Located at the corner of Park & Main st. Rockland can be a busy summer town, but just head a little south or North from here and it is a beautiful place to ride. Downtown Rockland is full of little shops, a great little restaurant "Rockland Cafe" with an awesome breakfast. You will also find a small movie theater right on Main street as well.  After a relaxing day of explore down east Maine its nice to come back to this little town and to be able to walk around. (OSJ)

West

The River View Resort - Bethel - Run by Chad & his lovely wife. Right in the middle of one of the greatest area's to ride your motorcycle in.  Plus when you come back to a 2 bedroom condo with a full kitchen and living room it makes your trip so much nicer.  There is a pool and hot tub, I haven't tried them out yet.  Then Suds Pub right down the street for some great steak tips, how can you go wrong?

Tupper Lake Motel - Beth and I stay at this motel in Tupper Lake, N.Y. Clean, inexpensive and very biker friendly. When we go there, we spend 2 or 3 nights and use it as a hub for day rides of 200 miles or so. (OLRON)

Ramada Inn - New Hartford - We had 45 bike in 94 and they gave us the Main. area to park our bikes,Next to the pool :) .. It had a gate we could close at night. They are Biker firendly and offer group discount for the rooms.. GREAT riding area not far from Oswago Ny which now has over 15ft of snow lol..I never thought of NY as wine country BUT alot of wineries up there for he wino's here lol..I ll think of more as my brain clears :) (OldRadco)
