Keeps me coming back since 1995
My husband and I have stayed several times at this same property since 1995. I love this quaint little cottage and the fact that it has a stairway down to the beach is the added plus that keeps us coming back. The stairway is long and steep and not for the faint of heart (I believe there are 44 stairs) but if you can brave the stairway to the secluded beach below it is a wonderful treat. The size of the starfish here are amazing. My husband and I have watched many eagles grow up here. Not a day goes by that we don't see several bald eagles. We also see many whales go through. You usually hear the whales before you see them. At least it gives you a chance to look for them before they go along their way. It doesn't really bother me that the cottage only has a few channels on the TV as we are usually so busy anyway. There is the lighthouse which is a little further down the road from the cottage and if you were as lucky as I was last summer, you may even get an inside tour of the lighthouse in exchange for a donation. That was the highlight of my trip last year. I had been going since 1995 and had never had a chance to see the inside. I got some lovely pictures that I cherish. You need to cross over to the lighthouse on foot at low tide and it is really not at all difficult to navigate. Just make sure that you keep an eye on the tide so you don't get stranded on the other side. The tide comes in fast and furious.
We usually take one day and ride the Campobello ferry across to Deer Isle and from there take the Government Ferry to Letite, NB from there we make our way to St. Stephen or St. John which are wonderful cities to explore. Sometimes we even stay one night over there and come back the next. If you are a photographer,the Campobelloe island sunsets are just to die for. You won't be disappointed in the photography as there is always a great time to photograph, whether it's in the fog or on a nice clear sunny day. And there is an abundance if subjects whether it's architecure or flowers or a seascape. One thing you need to know is you should gas up before crossing to the island as there is no gas station on the island. The owners are wonderful and take pride in their properties and keep them clean and tastefully updated enough so as to not ruin the cottage ambiance. I'm sure that your trip will turn out as special as all of ours have been!
