The Historic Causeway and Clark Island:

The cottage's location is steeped in rich history. The granite causeway that stretches across Clark Cove to Clark Island once served as a pathway for quarry workers, and it remains a striking feature of the landscape. Clark Island was settled in the 1780s and was home to an active granite quarry until the 1950s. The island’s granite was used in famous landmarks such as the Central Park bridges, the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, and the Library of Congress.

Clark Island is a magical place, with its 124-acre preserve offering a variety of mowed grass and gravel trails that lead you to beautiful beaches, the old rock quarry, and a diverse range of wildlife habitats. It’s a wonderful place to explore by foot, and only a short stroll from the causeway.

The trail winds through the island’s diverse ecosystems, with opportunities to spot wildlife, enjoy scenic vistas, and relax on the beaches. Whether you’re out for a leisurely walk or simply soaking in the views, the trail is a peaceful way to experience the natural beauty of Maine.
