ACTIVITIES ON THE PREMISES...RIGHT HERE!
A coastal paradise! Fifty private acres in which to relax or be as active and adventuresome as
you want.
Take to foot and explore our woodland and shorefront. A short hike on a trail blazed with cairns (delicately and artistically stacked rocks) will take you 250 feet above Eggemoggin Reach for an exquisitely breathtaking view of East Penobscot Bay. Take your lunch. You'll see Pumpkin Island Lighthouse at the tip of Little Deer Isle, with Pond Island and Islesboro between us and the Camden Hills. The Camden Hills are 22 miles across the Bay. Thomaston is barely visible to the south.
Bring your own kayak or rent one from a local outfitter who will deliver it to our beach. Our beaches are ideal for launching a kayak or canoe. We do have an ocean dock which is for landing and loading purposes. You may bring your own boat if you plan on dropping anchor for while. But, be sure to let us know in advance. We don't have moorings at this time. You can fish without a license in the ocean. Adults will need a license to fish in the lake.
For children and the young at heart Oakland House Seaside Resort has lots of room to explore. Try a hiking trail or wander the tidal pools. There is always something going on; a great place for families. Little ones can nap while the older ones burn off energy outside. There is a collection of books in nearly every cottage.
As the evening approaches you will be drawn back to the comfort of your cottage. Its laid back interior and comfortable living room with fireplace and plenty of space with make a great gathering place for quiet pursuits: a game of checkers, chess, a puzzle on the dining table, or a glass of wine while holding your spouse's hand.
