activities and attractions in Casco Bay Maine
The house is located on Sebascodegan Island in Casco Bay on the
coast of Maine. The property is situated on a totally private,
secluded peninsula within the Cundys Point Association on 5+ acres,
with 2000 feet of shoreline. The house is within 50 feet of the
water on all three sides. To the West are open views of Quahog and
Casco bays, Big Hen, Birch Island, and Yarmouth Island. To the
East is Ridley Cove and the picturesque fishing village of Cundys
Harbor. The sunrises and sunsets from this location are
magnificent.
There are several paths from the house through the extensive natural
landscaping. You can get to various perennial beds and cutting,
vegetable, and herb gardens which add charm and color all year
long. The gardens extend to the sea banks; they are professionally
kept and contain peonies, old fashioned beach roses, lilacs, asiatic
lilies, dahlias, blueberries, wildflowers, lupines, rhododendrons,
bayberry, hydrangias and foxglove. Along the banks you can walk to
a spot on the beach which is very private and invites swimming, and
fishing at low and high tides. Long walks and beachcombing are also
very pleasant. A canoe is provided for exploring the coves and
bays.
From the house you can easily walk from the point (10 minutes) along
the ocean to the Snack Bar for fried clams and other local seafood
(according to USA Today, they have "The Best Lobster Roll on the
Coast of Maine"). Also within walking distance are town, Hawks
Lobster Pound for fresh lobster, clams, local smoked salmon, and
fish, flowers and The Block and Tackle Restaurant for great Maine
blueberry pancakes.
Further afield, Bowdoin College and Brunswick are eight miles away
(providing Maine State Summer Theater and concerts). The outlet
stores at Freeport and L.L. Bean are about 20 miles away. Both
Portland and Boothbay Harbor (where a short ferry ride to Monhegan
Island provides access to the famous artists colony and hiking
trails with spectacular views) are within a 45 minute drive.
