Description & Details of The Wadsworth House
Comes with the use of tennis courts, a gator and many sizes of bicycles.

The Wadsworth House is a gorgeous rock home built on a ledge; most of the rooms have a panoramic ocean view. The house sleeps 2 couples and 4 children. It is very well supplied, has a new bathroom and a farmhouse style kitchen. It is larger and architecturally more interesting than most of the houses on the island.

It includes a swimming pool, fireplace, piano, 7 acres of untouched land with wild birds and deer and its own beach.

The driveway ends at the lower lawn, where you enter the house by climbing large rock steps built into the ledge. The main door leads into a massively long living room/music room with fireplace and piano. The large windows and porch at the end of this room look out over the ocean to the mountains of Acadia National Park.

***********************************************************************************************The Master Bedroom has a King sized bed, dresser, closet, and vanity table with mirror as well as a superb view of Mt. Desert Island and the ocean. Across from this room is a recently renovated bathroom with its own extra heater.

Further down the hall, are 2 children's rooms also with great views; one has a twin bed and the other a bunk bed. On the basement level is an extra bedroom, great for teenagers, with a trundle bed, and a little half-bath under the staircase.

The last bedroom is medium-sized. It has a Queen bed, dresser, built-in closet, mirror and a forest view.

Local library has free high speed internet connection with your built in modem on your laptop.

Our rocky Maine beach is a two-minute walk through the forest. We also have an above-ground swimming pool on the lower lawn. It's not huge, but great for cooling off at the height of the day.

*********************************************************************************************Splendid views of Mt. Desert Island, Suttons Island, the ocean, and the mountains of Acadia National Park.

The area offers many nature opportunities from hiking the mountains of Acadia park to Kayaking and sailing, seal and whale boat tours or simply nature walks along the shores of the island. Beach combing and sea glass hunts are favorites among children.

The island library has books, Internet connection and a kids playground. There is a delightful gift shop on the island that offers local crafts and tasteful art and artifacts from other areas.

If you go off island (ferry goes every 2 hours) to Northeast Harbor or Bar Harbor tourist shops and activites are abundant. The island itself is more low key. There is tennis, island suppers, musicales, and bingo nights if the renters feel the need for some outside social life.

Church services are held in the Protestant church during the months of July & August.

Reviews for The Wadsworth House
Posted by: laurie wadsworth
The Wadsworth House provides a restful vacation experience. The home is large enough to accommodate a large family or a couple looking for a quiet escape. Cranberry Island provides none of the hype of typical summer vacation destinations. A day might include a walk to the beach to find sea glass, an afternoon lying by the pool, tennis in town or a tour of the island on the Wadsworth House "Gator". The large kitchen is well appointed. The living room provides space enough to entertain the family or relax with a book. If your an artist, the attached studio provides ample space to create your own vacation masterpiece. The view from the studio is spectacular! I recommend The Wadsworth House to anyone looking for a unique Island experience.
