Excellent place to stay
The house is in a great location and was wonderful for a large family with children. We loved being able to walk to Fort Knox state park and the bridge look out. Bucksport is a cute little town and only about a 5 minute drive from the place. The house could use a little TLC but that wasn’t an issue for us with a group of kids.
