Beat the rush: Now until Memorial Day weekend is the best time to get a good deal on a hotel room with an ocean view in Maine. In fact, from May 1-23, inns and hotels participating in the Maine Innkeepers Association Hospitality for Habitat program are making a certain number of rooms available for half their regular price in exchange for a $35 donation to Habitat for Humanity. Reservations must be made in advance and the contribution must be in the form of a check, payable to Habitat for Humanity. From Boothbay Harbor to Vinalhaven, more than 40 inns, hotels, motels, and resorts are participating.
