To become more than a casual tourist, a visit here is really valuable. The Ashley Bryan art & living history exhibit is a jewel not to be missed!

The museum could be improved. It has few info about Islesford. But the views over the lake are stunning. I highly recommend a trip to Islesford.

Plan your visit to the Cranberry Islands to see the Historical Museum transformed.

Run by the Ntl Park Service, this is one of the best small island museums in Maine. Nice exhibits that are professionally done and usually a ranger or volunteer docent available for more information.

Since there is no separate review option for the whole of Islesford or Little Cranberry Island (this one seems to focus just on the historical museum), I guess I'll have to post my review here. But I hope anyone interested in going out the island will see this posting and will get some insights into what to do there. First of all you have a choice of taking the 2.5 hour Sea Princess boat with a NPS ranger onboard to give you a narrated tour of the area, this includes a stopover on the island for about an hour - just enough to tour the small history museum there. But if you're interested in more of an island experience take the mail boat (Sea Queen) out to the island at 9 am and come back anytime in the afternoon or evening on one of the later mail boats (you'll get a schedule so you won't miss the boat). The great thing about this ticket (less than $30) is that you can go to both Cranberry Islands on one tour and spend as much time at each island as you like before catching the boat to the next island. We only visited Little Cranberry and the town of Isleford but I wish we'd made time to include a stopover at Greater Cranberry too. The history museum is okay - not a lot to see there since there was water damage and most of the exhibits have to be dried out. But walk around town and talk to the lady who sells produce out of her screen house - stop by the library and talk to the woman behind the desk who tells you how they raised money by auctioning off painted buoys - visit the pottery where you can watch a potter spin a new piece - walk down to Island Girl Sea Glass and buy a small bag of sea glass hunted and sold by school children. And one of the best things to do is to get back to the dock early just to watch the lobster boats come in and unload their catches - this is a hard way of life and you can watch how men make their living on the sea at one of the oldest fisherman's coops in Maine. This is a quiet island so take your time and feel the rhythm.
