s p r e y on Penobscot Bay |
44 Parks Lane, Cape Jellison, Maine |
| Pristine
and Private Setting
Our home
is perched at the top of a long sloping lawn going down to the water.
The property is bounded by woods and streams on both sides.
As you walk down the lawn, cross the wooden footbridge over the stream and enter a pine grove on a bluff overlooking Penobscot Bay. As you face the prevailing southwest breezes you can see down the bay and its islands. Now go back across the bridge and continue down to the beach.Your Own Beach Our beach is typical of the area. Stones and coarser sand brought up the bay cover the area. You can walk for half a mile in either direction (beachcombing is great). At low tide, get mussels without getting wet. Watch for seals and the Ospreys. |
