We have a deep love of the Acadia region and love sharing our local knowledge with our guests. We provide an online guidebook which gives great suggestions for hikes, bites, drinks, shops, and so much more. We also feature a calendar of local events so you can experience real local charm. If you’re looking to experience a local lobster bake we can steer you to the best lobster pound or if you would like to make them on your own, we can connect you with our local lobsterman where you can pick them up from him at the dock and enjoy cooking them yourselves in our large lobster pot!
