I visit customers in Portland a few times a month. As Rattlesnake Gal asked, depends on which side of the lake you're trying to get to.

Since I'm in Laconia, I usually take 11 to 16 to the Spaulding and then get on the Maine Turnpike. The other route, which I take when I'm in a more relaxed mood is NH 25 to 16 to ME 25. That ends up around Westbrook. Less miles, but about the same amount of time. Probably the best way if your on the east side of the lake.

Kind of frustrating since Portland is due East of Laconia, but there's a big lake in the way
