Review of Islesboro, Maine


An Idyllic Summer Enclave
Star Rating - 12/12/2008
Islesboro is a quiet, scenic, charming place to spend time during the summer months, but may be too isolated and bleak for many in the winter. During the summer months, the population swells ten-fold, with many families returning year after year, from generation to generation. There are summer activities to be found, but one would be advised to come prepared to entertain oneself with books, bicycles and boats and not depend on outside entertainment resources. The library is open on an occasional schedule for reading and internet access, with limited movie titles available for loan. Remember, this is island living and you are subject to the restrictions of a ferry boat that operates until 5:00PM daily. There are no restaurants, one Bed & Breakfast, two general stores and a couple of small gift, antique and book shops. It's a treasure to be enjoyed, but one that has limited access.
