Food Scene

For lobster on the pier overlooking Acadia National Park, visit Perry's Lobster Company, located at 1076 Newbury Neck Rd in Surry, 20 minutes from Blue Hill, open for breakfast, lunch and dinner noon to 8 pm (8 am-8 pm weekends only), 7 days a week. Bring a sweater, as it's al fresco dining; bring your own wine; they don't have a liquor license; best to choose late afternoon hours when there's lots of sunshine and not too much wind, as dining is outside on the pier over the water and can be chilly. It's all about the atmosphere here, as you're sitting over the water literally on a pier with Cadillac Mountain as your backdrop. Newbury Neck peninsula on which Perry's sits juts out into the ocean ten miles and is only a quarter mile wide. Perry's is half way down on left just beyond the beach. Open for breakfast Saturdays and Sundays only. Closing October 9,2023 for the season. Opening June 1,2024, rebranded as Perry's Lobster Co., for summer 2024.

The Fishnet Restaurant, located at 162 Main Street in Blue Hill, Maine is a wonderful place to get ice cream cones, fresh lobster, lobster rolls, and fried fish sandwiches. Open from about 11 am to 7 pm Summers only. Dine in or take out. Dining in is outside under umbrellas. For better dining in experience, we suggest Bagaduce Lunch, where the food is exactly like this only it's setting is on the shore by the waters edge, only 4 miles away. Local seafood restaurant in a small community town of Blue Hill, Maine. They also sell fresh live lobster. This is our local greasy spoon....fried food, french fries, ice cream - but the food is very good and the restaurant has been open for years and years. There is a dining room but people mostly order from the window daytime or early evenings only.

If you're travelling through Millbridge, Maine for any reason, we recommend this excellent taco restaurant, recently featured in a magazine featuring best restaurants in Maine. We met the owners of this restaurant by chance last year, and they are really good people, Mexican I recall.... "LoveFood proclaims that Vazquez Mexican Takeout's chorizo taco is simply divine. It starts with the corn tortilla, which the restaurant makes fresh every single day. They layer it with their special spicy chorizo along with onions, lettuce, cheese, sour cream, and cilantro. For those that have discovered the restaurant, it's become worth the extra drive out of the way for each delicious bite." 38 Main St, Milbridge, Maine

Everything Else

Back in the day Maine farmers built Grange Halls in just about every town, in order for people to discuss how to get produce to market, when freight trains were too costly. These Grange Halls today are places that host events for people in the community to get together, and usually this takes the form of pig roasts, community suppers, pie nights, live music, square dances, and pancake breakfasts, or Hunters' Breakfasts. However, they don't have set dates when these functions are happening. You have to watch for signs in the village when these functions are open, and if they are offering a function while you are in Blue Hill, we highly recommend going. This is a good way to get to know the locals and get a good meal for inexpensive and enjoy the local life. Join others at the same table.... Halcyon grange Located at 1157 Pleasant St in Blue Hill

Barncastle Hotel + Restaurant Located at 125 South Street in Blue Hill now has live music! Known for its great pizza. It's where "young people" gather at 5 pm for happy hour most evenings throughout the year. It's located in a charming farm house... Live music on Wednesday nights, open only until about 11 pm.... It's in a charming sprawling country house with turrets and dreamy barn doors.... It's also a hotel and restaurant. I'm sure the owners did not set out to be the local watering hole for the young energetic nightlife crowd; rather, these people made Barncastle into their local nighttime place....and it's a fun place to go! Very pretty country inn style... 5 minutes from Bungalow, lots of parking. Even the wood-fired pizza is topped with local ingredients at the Barncastle in the historic Kline Cottage, one of the largest surviving rusticator summer homes and now a lively place to meet friends for dinner.

Shopping

Belfast Known for Neighborhood & Shopping Incorporated in 1853, the town of Belfast developed into a shipbuilding center, producing hundreds of three, four and five masted schooners. Materials for wooden boat construction were shipped down the Penobscot River from Bangor, the lumber capital of North America during the later 19th century. Shipbuilders became wealthy, and built the Federal, Greek Revival and Italianate mansions and civic architecture for which the city is noted, including the 1818 First Church by master-builder Samuel French, and the 1857 Custom House and Post Office by noted architect Ammi B. Young. Wooden ship construction would fade about 1900, but with the advent of refrigeration, the local economy shifted to harvesting seafood, including lobsters, scallops, sardines, herrings and mackerel for the Boston and New York markets. The town is laid out on a grid with many beautiful houses. The waterfront has lots of enticing shops and the Colonial Movie Theater, 163 High Street. Coyote Moon, 54 Main Street, is a "yummy" woman's clothing store. An interesting environmental store is The Green Store, located at 71 Main Street. Chase's Daily, 96 Main Street, offers an excellent vegetarian menu. There is a bicycle/walking path that hugs the shore along the edge of town. 45 minutes from Blue Hill, just before you arrive in Belfast, find Perry's Nut House, 45 Searsport Avenue, along Route 1; it's been in operation for at least 100 years. It sells jokes.... The Angler's Restaurant, 215 East Main Street, (Route 1) is immensely popular, judging by the number of cars out front. The town of Bucksport also has a pedestrian/bike path along its waterfront.

Belfast Known for Neighborhood & Shopping Incorporated in 1853, the town of Belfast developed into a shipbuilding center, producing hundreds of three, four and five masted schooners. Materials for wooden boat construction were shipped down the Penobscot River from Bangor, the lumber capital of North America during the later 19th century. Shipbuilders became wealthy, and built the Federal, Greek Revival and Italianate mansions and civic architecture for which the city is noted, including the 1818 First Church by master-builder Samuel French, and the 1857 Custom House and Post Office by noted architect Ammi B. Young. Wooden ship construction would fade about 1900, but with the advent of refrigeration, the local economy shifted to harvesting seafood, including lobsters, scallops, sardines, herrings and mackerel for the Boston and New York markets. The town is laid out on a grid with many beautiful houses. The waterfront has lots of enticing shops and the Colonial Movie Theater, 163 High Street. Coyote Moon, 54 Main Street, is a "yummy" woman's clothing store. An interesting environmental store is The Green Store, located at 71 Main Street. Chase's Daily, 96 Main Street, offers an excellent vegetarian menu. There is a bicycle/walking path that hugs the shore along the edge of town. 45 minutes from Blue Hill, just before you arrive in Belfast, find Perry's Nut House, 45 Searsport Avenue, along Route 1; it's been in operation for at least 100 years. It sells jokes.... The Angler's Restaurant, 215 East Main Street, (Route 1) is immensely popular, judging by the number of cars out front. The town of Bucksport also has a pedestrian/bike path along its waterfront.

The Dry Dock Located at 24 Main St, Stonington, ME, 04681 Clothing Store While you're waiting for the ferry to take you out onto the water to Isle au Haut in Stonington (or a Lighthouse Tour or a Puffin Tour or a Lobster Fishery Tour), stop in to the Dry Dock, a woman's clothing store. Be careful! You might spend more than you intended to! This yummy store is a lost spot for every member of our family! Stonington also has lots of art galleries. The lady who created the art, which is on every wall at the Camden National Bank in Blue Hill has a gallery in Stonington. She is incredible! Her gardens are full of sunlight and color and beauty! Afterwards, dine at any one of Stonington's romantic restaurants located on the waterfront. You'll have really arrived! Stonington has gorgeous sunsets! After dinner, check out what's playing at the Opera House. In operation as a movie house for over 100 years, in summer the Opera House host s lots of summer stock theater and musical entertainment. Stonington is a dry town. The lobstermen got rowdy one night and the town said, "That's it! We're no longer serving liquor." I think you can order wine with dinner, however....

Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park, at 1,530 feet (466 meters), is the highest point along the North Atlantic seaboard and the first place to view sunrise in the United States from October 7 through March 6. It is one of over 20 mountains on Mount Desert Island (MDI), Maine that were pushed up by earth's tectonic and volcanic forces millions of years ago. Were it not for the once enormous glaciers that sheared off their tops, they would be even higher than what we see today. Cadillac Mountain has a coastal location. It is within the municipality of Bar Harbor, Maine, a popular coastal resort known for its unique blend of a Down East Maine fishing village combined with quiet community charm. The town's shopping district can easily be seen from the eastern side of the mountain and is particularly striking to view when there is a large cruise ship in the harbor. Cadillac Mountain is by far the most dominant land feature on MDI (Mount Desert Island) and for many miles along the Maine coast. The scenic Summit Road officially opened in 1931. It meanders along the North and eastern side of the mountain for approximately 3.5 miles (5.6 km) until reaching the top. There are several small observation points along the roadway that offer prime viewing opportunities. To the East, one greets the sunrise over Schoodic Peninsula on the mainland. There are several islands in between and immediately off the coast from Mount Desert Island such as Sheep Porcupine and Bald Porcupine. To the Northeast is the business district of Bar Harbor. To the North is Trenton. To the South is Islesford. To the Southwest is Southwest Harbor which is particularly beautiful in the late evening as the lights come on. To the West is Eagle Lake, Blue Hill Mountain and, of course, the setting sun. And, all around you is pink granite with forests of spruce and pitch pine combined with tiny subalpine plants. One of the most striking surface features you notice on Cadillac Mountain are the deep scratches or gouges in the bare granite that seem to follow north south directions. The reason is quite simple. This area has undergone millions of years of climate changes during which there were several enormous continental glaciers that squashed the land and sheered off mountaintops. The last glacier retreated about 18,000 years ago, was over 1 mile high, and reached as far as 400 miles out to sea. It was so powerful that it actually shifted the orientation of the mountains from east-west to north-south. As difficult as it may be for some to imagine, the geological evidence is all around us. Simply take a long look at the map of Mount Desert Island. Note the elongated lakes and ponds, even the shape of Somes Sound. Look further at the shape of the out islands such as Sheep Porcupine to the left. One side has a gentle slope. The other has a steep slope with many deposits. Cadillac Mountain was named after the French explorer and adventurer, Antoine Laumet de La Mothe, Sieur de Cadillac in 1918. Prior to this, it was known as Green Mountain. People are usually surprised to learn that, starting in 1883, there was a slow cog railway excursion to the summit called the Green Mountain Cog Railway. This started at Eagle Lake on the western side of the mountain and made the 1.1 mile (1.77 km) climb all the way to the summit where the Green Mountain House Hotel was awaiting the arrival of visitors and overnight guests. Unfortunately, the seasonal railway had a relatively short run and operations were terminated in 1890. The equipment was then sold and shipped to Mount Washington Cog Railway of New Hampshire. There is a gift store at the top, and parking is very difficult at sunset.

Bar Harbor Shore Path There is a picturesque and historic Shore Path you should walk on at least one morning during your visit or anytime during the day. The path, originally created around 1880, begins near the town pier and Agamont Park in Bar Harbor, and continues for about 1/2 a mile along the eastern shore of town. Off shore to the east are the four Porcupine Islands which are especially beautiful at sunrise. Directly north of the town pier is Bar Island. This island is accessible by foot at low tide and provides a spectacular view of the town of Bar Harbor with the mountains behind it. Be sure to plan ahead and allow enough time so that you do not get stranded or wet!

The Reversing Falls (Under Construction Summer 2023) There's a place called the Reversing Falls at approximately 53 Falls Bridge Road in Blue Hill, where the Atlantic Ocean squeezes into the Salt Pond during high tide, then it reverses its direction at low tide, so the current flows one way, then another way twice a day and sets up an amazing wave for experienced kayakers. There's a path out to some flat rocks on the Atlantic Ocean, a wonderful place for a picnic; children love it for its tidal pools and crabs. We recommend a visit.

There isn't an active person that comes to Blue Hill who isn't drawn by Blue Hill Mountain to come climb it. At 999 feet, it isn't quite a mountain, so climbers carry stones to the top to make it one. A short, but steep hike, it offers stunning views of Isle au Haut and surrounding islands. Pick blueberries in late July and August enroute. It's the mountain that inspired Robert McCloskey to write Blueberries for Sal....

Essentials

There are a lot of working farms in the Blue Hill area , open to the public, that are great fun to visit that sell everything from fresh organic chicken and meat to fresh raw milk, yoghurt and cream, to fresh fruits and vegetables.... There offer unmanned farm stands, where you help yourself to milk, for instance, out of the fridge and leave the money in the bucket. All are located really close to each other and are only 10 to 15 minutes from the Bungalow. Return the empty bottles.... Here is the list of farms, their addresses, and what they sell: The Homewood Farm located at 118 Ackley Farm Road in Penobscot (374 9903) is operated by Jeff and Trudy Beardsley and has vast strawberry fields, open to the public for self-picking starting in late June/early to mid July. It also sells fresh vegetables, jams, and raw and local honey. Purchase 50 lb bags of locally grown onions and potatoes in the fall. Quill’s End Farm, operated by Phil and Heather Retberg on 192 Front Ridge Road in Penobscot sells fresh raw milk, thick cream (ideal for making ice cream; there's an ice cream maker and rock salt at the Bungalow), delicious homemade "Orange Blossom" yoghurt, as well as thicker Greek yoghurt, sour cream, cottage cheese, hard cheese, eggs. Old Ackley Farm, operated by Bob Sullivan and Colleen Prentiss at 42 Ackley Farm Road, Blue Hill (near Homewood Farm) sells fresh organic chicken meat, raw milk and other items. Horsepower Farm, operated by Andrew and Donna Birdsall & Paul Birdsall at 90 Horsepower Farm Road, off Route 15, Penobscot (near Quills End farm) sells fresh, local Jacob's Beans, 10 lb bags of juice carrots, lettuce, and the like from their farm stand.... Ken-Rose Farm, located on 1381 Pleasant Street/Route 15, Blue Hill, I'm not sure is open... Ken and Flossy (Rose was his previous wife) both passed away recently, and I'm not sure whether Ken's grandson Nathaniel has reopened yet (they've been restoring the barn). But you used to be able to go to this farm and meet the cow "Brownie." You could visit Brownie in his barn and hear the radio that he liked to listen to. Octagenarian Ken would rise early each morning (3 am) and milk the cow and bring the milk and cream to harvest. King Hill Farm, operated by Amanda Provencher and Paul Shultz, 29 Faerie Kingdom Road, off Route 199, in Penobscot is a huge successful farm that, I think, sells boxes of fruit and vegetables to paying members on a weekly basis.... So they're highly successful growers with a large quota to fill. Blue-Zee Farm, operated by Mark and Renata Scarano 652 Front Ridge Road, Penobscot - sells fresh lettuce, farm produce, and local vegetables.

Ken-Rose Farm, located on 1381 Pleasant Street/Route 15, Blue Hill, I'm not sure is open... Ken and Flossy (Rose was his previous wife) both passed away recently, and I'm not sure whether Ken's grandson Nathaniel has reopened yet (they've been restoring the barn). But you used to be able to go to this farm and meet the cow "Brownie." You could visit Brownie in his barn and hear the radio that he liked to listen to. Octagenarian Ken would rise early each morning (3 am) and milk the cow and bring the milk and cream to harvest. King Hill Farm, operated by Amanda Provencher and Paul Shultz, 29 Faerie Kingdom Road, off Route 199, in Penobscot is a huge successful farm that, I think, sells boxes of fruit and vegetables to paying members on a weekly basis.... So they're highly successful growers with a large quota to fill. Blue-Zee Farm, operated by Mark and Renata Scarano 652 Front Ridge Road, Penobscot - sells fresh lettuce, farm produce, and local vegetables.

Native Americans harvested oysters that flourished in the wake of the receding glaciers. As rising sea levels moved the coast inland, oysters multiplied in the warm, brackish water, and Native Americans feasted. But the great harvests did not last. Around 1,000 years ago, the oysters disappeared and the middens (the piles of shells) were abandoned. As the sea level continued to rise, the salt water brought with it predatory snails and other marine animals which, in addition to cooling temperatures in the Gulf of Maine, caused the oyster population to crash. At a point where the Great Salt Bay drains into the Damariscotta River, there are great heaps of ancient oyster shells. One pile—technically these piles are called middens—is 30 feet deep and contains shells as large as 12 inches long. While people have gathered shellfish from Maine waters for more than 5,000 years, there was a period when oysters were absent from the coast. Now a growing community of fisher-farmers is once again making a living pulling oysters from the sea. The Bagaduce Tidal River in nearby Brooksville, produces large amounts of nutrients and oxygen for the oysters to thrive. The shoreline is mostly unbroken spruce and granite. The tide drifts past uninhabited islands through lustrous beds of eelgrass before tumbling through the reversing falls that flow beneath Route 175/176. Leach’s oyster farm is located just upriver from the falls, which help to aerate the water and restrict the tidal range, preventing wide fluctuations in water level that would strand the oysters on exposed mud flats. To taste a Maine oyster is to taste the cold, clean, salty waters of the Maine coast. Jesse Leach, owner of Bagaduce Oyster Company, "filters" oysters in "grow-out cages" at his aquaculture lease site on the Bagaduce River. Since Maine waters don’t always get warm enough for oysters to spawn, most growers, including Leach, buy oyster “seed” from one of seven hatcheries in the state. Seed oysters are about the size of a grain of sand. Leach places the seed in plastic mesh trays that float on the water’s surface. He turns the trays daily to prevent fouling by sponges, sea squirts, and other organisms. Most growers place their shellfish on the river bottom to continue growing, but Leach keeps his on the surface until they reach market size, which for him is about two to three inches, when they are about three years old. Leach also raises hard-shell clams and tends a 19-head herd of cattle, but he makes most of his living from the oysters. Oysters feed by filtering algae and other particles from the water, and so they take on the characteristics of the place where they live. Maine oysters are the best-flavored in the world, he says... Purchase them at Tradewinds Grocery Store in Blue Hill.

Entertainment & Activities

What is there to do? 1) A drive through Acadia National Park. Start your visit to Acadia National Park with a stop at Seal Cove Automobile Museum first. It tells the story of how the rusticators of Bar Harbor during the early 1900s wanted to ban car traffic, while the locals, building cars in their barns wanted car traffic. Afterwards, make your way to 25 Visitor Center Drive in Bar Harbor, to pick up the one-way, loop road through Acadia National Park, but first, drive up Cadillac Mountain. Acadia National Park is the only park in the USA where you look down from mountains onto the Atlantic Ocean. Now do the loop road that takes you through the beautiful Acadia National Park, where there are many scenic turnouts of the Atlantic surf crashing against the rocks. Stop at Jordan Pond for lunch. It's famous for its lobster chowder, popovers, and Bloody Mary's. While in Northeast Harbor, visit the Kimball Shop. Consider stopping at Wildwood Stables for a horse and cart ride. Travel was by way of buck board for many years, and people still remember those days. 2) In Stonington, a boat trip on the isle au haut ferry out to the island of isle au haut to visit the fisherman’s settlement there and to hike the trails is highly recommended on warm days. The Isle au Haut ferry also offers narrated tours of Stonington Harbor, light house tours, and bird watching tours out to the ledges to see the variety of sea birds that visit the coast of Maine in summer. Visit Merchant's Row and learn about the Age of Sail; learn about the rock quarries in Stonington that produced the granite for the Brooklyn Bridge. The Isle au Haut ferry is a great way to get out onto the calm, cold waters of the Coast of Maine to see its many islands, beaches, peninsulas, and sail boats. If you're into hiking, Isle au Haut has trails and is part of Acadia National Park. Bring cameras and warm clothes even on the hottest of days. Visit Www.isleauhautferryservices dot com for tour times and dates. 3) A picnic lunch at Schoodic point. Part of Acadia National Park, Schoodic Point is located on the tip of the next peninsula over from Mount Dessert island. Visit Winter Harbor in the way. Watch sea birds flying over the crashing surf of the Atlantic as you picnic on the flat, pink rocks there. 4) A visit to the towns of Stonington, Deer isle, Brooksville and Castine. With their many seaside restaurants, handsome waterside mansions, art galleries and museums, these towns are picturesque, scenic and located on the water. Driving to them is scenic. In Deer Isle, stop for drinks on the deck at Aragoosta restaurant. In Stonington check out Jill Hoyt art gallery and Opera House Arts. In Castine consider dining on the waterfront. In Brooksville, visit Four Seasons Farm and the Nearing Homestead. 5) If you are up for cycling, a must see is Rockefeller s carriage trails inside Acadia national park, intended for bicycles only. Car traffic is not allowed. Bicycles are rented from Bar Harbor Bicycle (see below for details) and buses with bicycle racks take you to the trails. The park is famous for its bridges and was designed by the same person who designed Central Park. The trails are flat for cycling. 6) Beach Day - A visit to the beach at Curtis Cove in East blue hill is highly recommended for its scenic setting. Follow it by an afternoon lobster boil at Perry’s Lobster Shack on the pier in Surry, overlooking Acadia national park. Bring your own bottle of wine and a sweater. You will be dining outside right over the water in the pier with views of Cadillac Mountain and Acadia National Park. There’s a beach next door to Perry’s which is located on Newberry neck, a peninsula ten miles long and half a mile wide with many sea views and lovely houses. The islands of Maine are a sunken mountain range. When the glacier melted, water submerged the range, leaving islands, and this is also why the roads in Maine dip and rise and are not flat. Glaciers wore the valleys down between boulders, moving back and forth, cutting deep valleys in the countryside. We also recommend a hike to Peter Brooks Waterfall for forest bathing, as well as a stroll through Blue Hill village to visit the Wine Shop, and a short steep hike up Blue Hill Mountain on the Osgood Trail. 7) Family dinners are a treasured tradition in Maine, and the nicest time at the Bungalow is late afternoon watching the sun go down. When the tide is high in late afternoon, we recommend a swim, then a fire, either on the rocks or in the fireplace, and a sit down meal of lobster, corn muffins, chowder, and blueberry pie.

The Carriage Roads and stone bridges in Acadia National Park were financed and directed by philanthropist John D. Rockefeller, Jr., between 1913 and 1940, for hikers, bikers, horseback riders and carriages. The network includes 57 miles of woodland roads free of motor vehicles, of which 45 miles are within Acadia National Park . These allow seasonal cross-country skiing and limited snowmobiling. Twelve miles are on private land. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., was an experienced horseman who wanted to travel by horse and carriage on Mount Desert Island roadways without encountering motor driven vehicles. His father, John D. Rockefeller, Sr., had previously built carriage roads on his private estates in Ohio and New York. John, Jr., acquired a love for this same type of road building practice which enabled him to envision the construction of similar roads on Mount Desert Island. His family’s great wealth allowed him to do something about it. Throughout, John Jr. showed an excellent sense of landscape design by making sure that the roads flowed with the natural setting rather than re-shaping the land to accommodate. ohn D. Rockefeller, Jr., paid close attention to the smallest of details in the road’s construction as well as the landscaping. Native vegetation such as fern and wild blueberries was tastefully used throughout to landscape the roadside. By the time the project was finished, he not only had financed and supervised the roads, but 16 of the 17 stone faced bridges on the island that can be seen crossing streams, roads, waterfalls, and even a cliff side. There are many different access points on Mount Desert Island including Jordan Pond, the North side of Eagle Lake, Bubble Pond, the Hulls Cove Visitor Center, and more.

The 27 mile Park Loop Road is the primary avenue for navigating through Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island by vehicle. It begins near the Hulls Cove Visitor Center on the north side of the island and connects the park's lakes, mountains, forests and rocky shores for easy exploration. You may also access it off Route 3 just south of Bar Harbor on the right just past Jackson Lab. Much of the road is one way but there is a two way section that begins near Wildwood Stables so keep this in mind. A fee is required and may be paid at the Entrance Station located about one-half mile north of Sand Beach. Entrance Passes may also be purchased at the Visitor Center, and Jordan Pond Gift Shop. Construction of the roadway was a huge undertaking and one which began in 1922 and continued through the 1950's. It was partially financed by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who was the father of the park's famous Carriage Roads. A large part of the beautiful and sensitive design, often taken for granted, is attributed to the talents of landscape architect, Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr., who artfully combined functional aspects of a road system with the indigenous landscape. Much of the physical labor that was required was provided by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) beginning in 1933. This was a social program setup during the Great Depression by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt shortly after he was elected. The CCC planted many trees, and helped construct the Carriage Roads as well. One of the program's earliest camps that was set up for housing was near Eagle Lake and is currently used as the Park Headquarters.

Ocean Drive is the coastal road that runs along the very edge of Western Point from Otter Creek to Seal Harbor, off of which are many stately mansions with gardens overlooking the sea. Located on the southwest coast of Mount Desert Island, it's "any road" that gets you off the main thoroughfare and onto the residential roads that run tightly along the coast. East Point and Northeast Harbor offer two additional opportunities for exploring off the beaten track. There's also a long coastal road that runs up Somes Sound from Northeast Harbor to Sargent Point. Ocean Drive actually starts in Bar Harbor and parallels Park Loop Road until The Beehive. It may be called Schooner Head Road there.... Consult the map and watch closely for street signs saying Ocean Drive just after Otter Cove, as they don't announce it too loudly, and take it. Enjoy the beautiful gardens and stately mansions of the very lucky!

We highly recommend starting your visit to Acadia National Park with a visit to the Seal Cove Auto Museum. This is because the auto museum gives a brief history of the region that will give meaning to the rest of your visit. See hundreds of beautiful old cars, and learn how rusticators in Bar Harbor didn not want cars to drive on the island, while locals did, and who won out in the end. Now make your way to 25 Visitor Center Road, Bar Harbor where we recommend a drive up Cadillac Mountain, followed by a tour of the loop road (it's one way, beginning at the Visitor Center), and end with a bicycle ride on Rockefeller's blue chip carriage trails. There's no car traffic on the carriage trails, and the park is known for its beautiful bridges. The designer of Central Park designed it. End your visit with a meal in downtown Bar Harbor. www dot seal cove auto museum dot org 1414 Tremont Road in Seal Cove, a village in the Town of Tremont Maine, on spectacular Mount Desert Island.
