Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 137 reviews
Nervous Nellie's is a cottage industry (jams and chutneys made with mostly Maine fruit) in a cottage. It's a sculpture studio and acres of whimsical sculptures and installations of American icons like the general store, the juke joint, a western town complete with saloon, sheriff, jail, Chinese laundry, fortune teller, church, Grail castle and wizard's tower all made in Peter Beerits's quirky style, using re-purposed "junk" from the island dump and countless old barns. Little ones enjoy the sandbox under a grape arbor, while parents relax in Adirondack chairs close at hand. Try free jam samples in the shop or have a homemade scone with jam in the tea room. Something for everyone here!

Quirky destination with a family fun atmosphere. Plan on spending at least an hour to absorb the surrounding art installation composed of found objects and imagination. You will feel like a kid again exploring all the wonderfully vivid and unique pieces. Adorable jam and preserve shop with additional tempting finds. One of a kind experience.
4. The Retail Shop At Greenhead Lobster
At Greenhead Lobster our lobsters are harvested by a dedicated fleet of Stonington, Maine lobstermen and women, many of whom have been delivering their daily catch of lobsters from the waters of Penobscot Bay to the Greenhead Lobster docks for generations, carrying on the strong fishing heritage of their families and this small island community located in the Gulf of Downeast Maine. The retail shop at Green Head Lobster is located directly on the docks and is meant to service all your lobster needs. Here you can buy live lobster, in addition to our full range fo frozen products. The lobster industry is the lifeblood of Stonington, and the retail shop allows you the chance to see a working fish pier.
