Enjoyed the little museum. Interesting works on display. The gardens and view in the rear were also spectacular and restful.

This is a small (tiny) museum in one of the most beautiful locations on the Maine Coast. It's exhibitions - though small - are always interesting.

I really enjoy these little Museums. Kind of reminded me of the old Doll Museum in NH. (The feel, not the art). Very cool place to visit.
