OpenTable Says Kennebunkport is Home to Maine’s Most ‘Romantic’ Restaurant
Romance and being romantic can mean a lot of different things to a lot of different people.
Throughout parts of Maine, being romantic on Valentine's Day often doesn't include a fancy dinner at a high-end restaurant or a bouquet of flowers.
A trip upta camp with some Chinese takeout and a roaring fire can count as some sweet romance.
But for those planning on going the more traditional route around Valentine's Day, a new list has dropped that may take the guessing game out of where to go.
