555 A Summer Legacy Continues

A large wooden white house sits at the base of a mountain.

“Summering” in Maine is a way of life here at Wildwood Stables and across Mount Desert Island. Thousands of summer residents live the rest of the year in warmer climates. In the early 1900s this property was a working farm owned by banker Ernest B. and Helen P. Dane, who summered at their 60-room Seal Harbor “cottage.” The 100-acre Wildwood Farm provided a steady supply of vegetables, fruits, eggs, dairy products, and meat for the Danes’ household. The carriage and stable operations here today provide carriage road tours to thousands of seasonal visitors to Acadia National Park.
