Schooner Sunset Cruise
The Mary Louise Todd

What’s a trip to an island without a boat ride? Grab your sea legs (and warm layers) and meet us on a two masted schooner, the Mary Louise Todd, for a sunset trip around Frenchman’s Bay! The Captain will be serving up drinks and the first mate plays guitar, or maybe it’s the other way around? Seriously though, bring warm layers.
Farewell Dinner
Sunday, October 11th | 7:00 PM
It’s over so soon!? Well really it’s over for the whole island after Columbus Day weekend; most of Mount Desert Island shuts down Monday, October 12th! Let’s get one last round of good times in at Eat-A-Pita where we can say goodbye the only proper way, with a lobster roll in one hand and a Belfast Bay Lobster Ale in the other.
