Question 42 - August 21, 2000

Hi, Kim!

Enjoy your site a lot. Been coming by regularly now and am planning a long trip through the leaves this fall.

Could you possibly help me find phone numbers for reserving lodgings that I can call from France? What I'm hoping to find is a "central reservation" type number for each of the three states - NH, VT, and Maine. It would be so much easier than contacting all the different hotels and cottages.... When we visited California a few years back, the Tourism Offices had a central number to call and it was SO practical for us, calling from overseas and reserving by credit card.

Hope you can help me out.
Thanks bunches,
Valerie
