Private Getaway on a Scenic Maine Lake
Anonymous Donor

Enjoy a memorable weeklong retreat with friends or family at a spacious home nestled pond-side amid celebrated moss gardens. White pines, spruce, and maples shelter you from all distraction and frame vistas of a quiet pond and the mountains of Acadia National Park. In the heart of historic Mount Desert Island, this unique property offers two bedrooms and three bathrooms to sleep five. A superb gourmet kitchen will support your culinary skills. Toast your success before a large stone fireplace. Page through your complimentary copy of the book on the moss gardens as you enjoy morning coffee. Come in October to hike the hills, walk the carriage roads, kayak on the pond, and glory in autumnal foliage. Come for December holidays to renew family bonds and savor the crescendo of the island year. Come in February for a deep-winter adventure that begins with a drive down your perfectly plowed quarter-mile private drive to dazzling views of Acadia in winter dress as you reach your retreat home. (Older children welcome.)
