Acadia off-the-beaten-path

Beech Mountain

A wooden house with a sign that reads "Islesford Boatworks" on the side. The house is next to a body of water with a rocky shoreline and a person standing in front of it. There are some trees and distant hills visible in the background.
Little Long Pond
A covered porch overlooking a lake with mountains in the distance. There are pink flowers in the foreground, a hanging lantern above, and a person sitting on a chair wearing a cap and jacket.
