Acadia National Park is only 35 miles from the Cottage... and if you desire the hustle and bustle of a touristy destination - Bar Harbor is mere minutes from Acadia Park. A great day trip. Nearby towns to visit include Blue Hill, Belfast and Castine. Blue Hill, a small art community, offers unique shopping and wonderful hiking. This is one of my favorite places. Belfast is a unique coastal town. There are some fun places for shopping and walking. Take a peak in at the hardware store...there is truly something for everyone. Castine wakes up during the summer and should be explored. The Maine Maritime Academy is here. Guest access At the Cottage guests will enjoy a full home with many amenities.
