There's a lot to do around here, or nothing to do. Sports enthusiasts will find sea kayaking, golf, tennis, bicycling, sailing, windsurfing, charter and surf fishing, and freshwater swimming. Restaurants offer everything from bistro dining to beachside "lobster shacks", all with water views. The nearby Bath/Brunswick area has a wide variety of restaurants, shops of all kinds and entertainment. Summer brings all sorts of festivals as well as Broadway musicals with Equity casts at the Maine State Music Theatre. There are also classical music concerts and good old-fashioned band concerts in the parks. Theater and music play continuously at the Theatre Project and the Chocolate Church. Three museums offer maritime lore, Civil War memorabilia and Arctic artifacts. There are historic house, garden and cemetery tours along with lighthouse cruises, railroads, whale watches, and nature and lobster cruises. Of course, antiquing and artists' studios are everywhere.

Head to nearby Popham Beach State Park to bask on four miles of expansive white sand beaches. The water temperature is actually quite comfortable from late June through August. Bring a picnic lunch and stay to enjoy tidal pools at Fox Island, or surf fish for stripers. Explore tidal river estuaries for the nesting sites of the Piping Plover and Least Tern, two endangered species protected here. Secluded Sea Wall Beach is a two-mile hike through balsam forests and tidal marshes where egret, heron and kingfishers feed. Spectacular views of the beaches and Mt. Washington (75 miles away!) are a thrill!
Bill has created a Benedictine Labyrinth in a wooded grove on the property. The walk has been designed with sea rope he collected on the shore. It's a spiritual experience he has enjoyed sharing with our friends and guests.
