In the latest move to relax coronavirus pandemic restrictions, Gov. Janet Mills’ administration said Friday that lodging guests staying in Maine no longer need reservations. The governor’s administration has been gradually updating safety checklists since she announced in early March that the state would allow more people to travel to Maine without COVID-19 tests or quarantine and relax capacity limits on stores and other venues while keeping safety protocols in place. Friday’s change, effective immediately, consolidates guidelines for hotels, short-term rentals and campgrounds onto a single lodging checklist.
