5. Edgar M. Tennis Preserve
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 43 reviews
Area offering walks through the woods and along the coast.
Reviewed By wilhelmusgjanssen - Washington DC, United States
This reserve offers some beautiful hikes, some three miles in total. Wear good shoes and be aware of the roots. You will be rewarded with wonderful panoramas of sea and land, characteristic of the unmistakable Maine coast line. We enjoyed the explanation board for the farm that was found there in the past, we passed by the little cemetery where Mr. Tennis has been put to the rest. Don’t forget to make a contribution for the maintenance of the preserve. We then drove on to Stonington and had lunch overlooking the harbor.
6. Isle au Haut Boat Services
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 71 reviews
Reviewed By MNM010 - Arlington, United States
The Isle au Haut Boat Service is coping admirably with the COVID-19 situation, and all staffers are doing their utmost to keep both the passengers and island communities (x2) safe and connected. Deer Isle and Isle au Haut are relatively remote locations, at a remove from advanced medical facilities, so it's important that passengers and crew take precisely the precautions that the boat service has fully put into place, in compliance with regulations put forth by the Maine CDC. It's not really a burden for passengers to wear masks and to distance themselves; the crew does a LOT of cleaning. We rode the larger boat, the Otter, which is relatively new and very well-run. They've put a great deal of effort into making the schedule work, and we had complete confidence in seeing Isle au Haut--but not staying--for the first time. Maybe longer, next time!
