The Sea Smoke Cottage is located in the middle of Maine’s beautiful Downeast coastline, so vacationers have many directions to choose from when planning the day’s excursions to take advantage of the area’s plentiful sights, activities and cultural events.

In the immediate area of the cottage we recommend hiking and exploring the beautiful oceanside McClellan Park in Milbridge or traveling a few miles to the west for hiking and bird watching at Petit Manan Wildlife Refuge, located in Steuben. The coastal hiking trails at the refuge are spectacular and the seabirds commonly seen there are a wonder to watch.

For the inland wanderer, look no farther than traveling north, outside of the village of Cherryfield off Route 182, and hiking the wonderful trails up Catherine’s and Tunk Mountains, located on Maine’s Bureau of Public Lands Downeast Unit. In the same BPL Unit we highly recommend canoeists and kayakers launch at Spring River and Tunk Lakes and paddle to the many white sandy beaches these two waters have to offer to enjoy picnicking and swimming.

For the trout, salmon and bass fisherman, this same BPL Unit offers numerous lakes and ponds for very successful outings. The angler in the group will revel in the chance to fish for brown trout at Long Pond and Spring River Lake, landlocked salmon at Tunk Lake and smallmouth bass at Long and Round Ponds.

For the more adventurous angler or fly fisherman, hiking into the Unit’s remote waters and catching brook trout at Rainbow Pond, Tilden Pond, Little Long Pond and Anderson Pond, would be incredible. All of these fishing opportunities await the ready angler off Route 182, located just north of Milbridge.

For the more passive vacationer, the Milbridge area offers quaint fishing villages with delectable restaurants, small shops, antique stores, boat tours and an outdoor theatre/stage. What ever your interest, this terrific area will not disappoint vacationers looking for the real Maine experience.
